The 2016 Top 25 Under 25 series has come to a close, and my ranking differed in a number of ways from the consensus. Let me explain.
Last year, at the conclusion of my first Top 25 Under 25 (T25U25) with PPP, I broke down my ranking relative to the consensus ranking to explain the decisions I made and the criteria I used.
The T25U25 is unique in that age is the only requirement that every player must meet -- the rest goes -- and our panelists are given no direction on what they should value or how much weight they should put into certain factors when evaluating the entirety of the available talent.
