Couple of items of note:
-- Chris Leak didn't make the list. You might be thinking..."So." Well, when you see the wave of hype that is already starting regarding the 2006 Florida Gators, you'll see why I said that.

-- If Calvin Johnson had a QB, he'd be higher on the list. Although, the bed wetting performance he put on in San Francisco, really hurt his standing nationally.

-- Troy Smith is a bad man, but he's way too high on this list.

-- Sidney Rice is too low. That guy is a monster.
