Aggregation of PFF's top returning SEC players

So far PFF has released the top returning players by their grading system for Alabama, Georgia, LSU, UF and A&M as of today. I thought I would combine all these players by position to see where they all stack up to one another base don last year's performance. They are still going to release Kentucky, Auburn, Mississippi State and Missouri and I can add them in once they are released.
Links to each team:
Alabama
LSU
UGA
Florida
Texas A&M
Kentucky - TBD
Auburn - TBD
Missouri - TBD
Mississippi State - TBD
No idea why they arent doing Ark, Ole Miss, Vandy, South Carolina, Tennessee, but they are doing every SEC team that finished 8-5 or better last season.
Without further ado, here's where they rank people for now on their overall PFF grade from last year as top players, keep in mind the minimum to qualify for this is probably 200+ snaps played last season more than likely. Note I changed their "DI" for Defensive Interior to DT because DI just looks weird...believe that covers all 3-4 NT, DE and 4-3 DTs, maybe some 4-3 jumbo DE?

I was actually surprised how low Alabama's OL graded out, no standouts there and a lot of average/above average grades with Brown just eclipsing a 70 grade in the good category.

PFF always has some scratching rankings. And that goes both ways with guys being ranked higher AND lower than an eye test would assume.
I’d have never guessed that Najee was that high.

Found it funny the only returning TE between UA, UGA, LSU, UF and A&M to reach the minimum snaps was Sullivan...and he was a WR last year being moved to TE this year, although in basically the same role

Nope
Although I’m sure Alabama’s OL will be fairly decent this year.

I don't know how accurate these are, but if they are it shows a pretty large talent disparity between Alabama, Georgia and the rest of the field.
But take a look at Florida's WR's!
Gators should throw the ball on every down! Perine is up there at RB, too. Not sure I get why he is above Swift, but I'm sure there is some metric?

I believe LSU has more on the list than Alabama.
