With NIL, are there any recruiting sites that re-rank classes after a year or 2

Is there a recruiting service that puts out an adjusted ranking after all the dust has settled?

11. Myles Murphy, DL
Clemson | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 13 (No. 4 DE)

The Tigers' No. 1 class in the 2020 cycle was anchored by an excellent group of defensive linemen that included Bresee and Murphy, both five-star prospects. Murphy earned freshman All-America honors and was named ACC Co-Newcomer of the Year with three sacks and 18 total tackles. As a sophomore, he continued to be a disruptive presence, as he led the team in sacks (seven) and tackles for loss (14). The highly touted and productive Murphy is again ranked closely behind Bresee among draft prospects.


12. Jahmyr Gibbs, RB
Alabama | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 178 (No. 19 RB)

Gibbs, who spent his first two years at Georgia Tech before transferring to Tuscaloosa, reminds us so much of former Alabama standout Josh Jacobs. Jacobs was another back whose versatility we undervalued out of high school. Gibbs is arguably Tide's most dynamic player on offense. He entered the transfer portal to face high-caliber competition, and the decision paid off. Gibbs' greatest asset this year might have been shouldering the load when Bryce Young went down, as his 226 yards from scrimmage paced Alabama past Arkansas, and he recorded 154 rushing yards in a win against Texas A&M. He is an every-down back who can do it all. Gibbs is a consensus top-three running back on ESPN's NFL draft board.
13. Michael Mayer, TE
Notre Dame | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 81 (No. 3 TE-Y)

Notre Dame has developed a rich history at tight end, and Mayer quickly established himself as another great player at the position for the Fighting Irish. A big target with good hands and body control, Mayer was a talented route runner coming out of high school and finished his freshman year as a team leader in receptions. He built upon that in his sophomore season with a team-high 71 catches and is the focal point in Notre Dame's passing attack as a junior. He has established himself as the likely first tight end selected when he enters the NFL draft.

14. Kayshon Boutte, WR
LSU | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 33 (No. 3 WR)

When he's healthy, Boutte has shown to be among the best in the country, especially as a route runner. Consistency has been the issue with Boutte, but when he's on, he can dominate as of the most explosive players in college football. Coming off his first 100-yard performance of the season against Florida on Saturday, Boutte is physical with strong hands when contested and has traits similar to former LSU great Ja'Marr Chase.


15. Devon Achane, RB
Texas A&M | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 200 (No. 13 ATH)

Dynamic would be the best way to describe Achane both now and when he was coming out of high school. He's a flash of speed who can line up anywhere on the field to create mismatches. We can only imagine how much better his numbers would be if Texas A&M had stability at quarterback. We saw great versatility when he was a recruit, but he has shown great big-play speed and explosiveness in College Station, as evidenced by his 16 career rushing scores, three receiving touchdowns and two kickoff return touchdowns. Achane is Mel Kiper Jr.'s No. 5 running back.


16. Nick Herbig, LB
Wisconsin | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 144 (No. 13)

The road from tropical Hawai'i to Wisconsin might not seem like a natural pipeline, but Herbig has made it seem like a natural fit. The top-rated player in his home state, he was among the top linebackers overall in the 2020 class as an instinctive, high-motor defender. He worked his way into a starting role as a freshman and was one of the most disruptive defenders in the Big Ten last season with nine sacks and 14.5 tackles for loss. He currently leads the Big Ten in sacks with his lighting quickness closing on quarterbacks. He's moving his way up to a Day 1 draft grade.


17. Antonio Johnson, DB
Texas A&M | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 211 (No. 12 S)

One of 12 ESPN 300 signings by the Aggies in 2020, Johnson has developed into one of two key secondary additions in that class, along with Jaylon Jones. Initially ranked behind Jones, Johnson has proved that order should be reversed. After contributing as a freshman, Johnson became a consistent and top starter for the Aggies last season, ranking second on the team in total tackles (79). The 6-3, 195-pound junior, the consensus No. 1 safety in next year's draft class, leads the Aggies in tackles (48) this year

18. Blake Corum, RB
Michigan | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 120 (No. 13 RB)

College football's second-leading rusher has exceeded our expectations as an every-down running back. Corum has always been fast and talented, but his measurables were less than ideal (5-8, 210). He's still on the shorter side but not necessarily small -- and there is a difference. Corum's powerful lower body and leverage have allowed him to succeed tackle to tackle, and his top-end speed is still elite when he breaks into the second level. He's starting to improve his draft stock and create legitimate Heisman buzz as Michigan seeks its second straight CFP appearance.


19. Josh Downs, WR
North Carolina | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 188 (No. 29 WR)

Downs' lower stock out of high school wasn't so much a reflection of his talent as it was his size at 5-9, 165 pounds. However, he has proven to play "big" in every sense of the word. He's an elite route runner and a nightmare in space for opposing defenses. We believe he is going to have a big second half of the season with more games like Saturday, when he had nine catches for 126 yards against Duke. Downs is Kiper's No. 5 wide receiver.

20. Jaylon Jones, CB
Texas A&M | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 35 (No. 3 CB)

Jones has been injured but also unbelievably productive when on the field, especially as a young player. The game has never been too big for him, and he was college ready from the day he arrived in College Station given his size (6-1, 190) and 4.6 speed. We expect his draft stock to also rise as his play becomes more consistent. His physical talent is as good as any cornerback in college football.


21. Kelee Ringo, CB
Georgia | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 8 (No. 1 CB)

Ringo, the No. 1-ranked corner in the 2020 class, would be ranked higher if he had a fuller body of work. But after redshirting his freshman year because of shoulder surgery, he has shown he is among the most elite players in his class. He was a key contributor and starter on the Bulldogs' stifling national championship defense last year, his 79-yard pick-six clinching their first title since 1980. On a defense that still is among the SEC's best against the pass, Ringo looks poised to be another Georgia defender to be picked in the first round. He is Todd McShay's top-rated cornerback in next year's draft class.


22. Noah Sewell, LB
Oregon | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 27 (No. 3 LB)

Sewell was one of two-high profile linebackers Oregon signed in 2020. While five-star Justin Flowe has flashed but battled injuries, Sewell has shined immediately. He led the team in tackles and was named Pac-12 Freshman Defensive Player of the Year in 2020. Last season, Sewell's 114 total tackles were second in the Pac-12 and he became the first player in program history to be named a Butkus Award semifinalist. Sewell, McShay's No. 1 inside linebacker prospect, has 24 tackles this season for Oregon, which has won five straight heading into a matchup against an undefeated UCLA team this week.


23. Marvin Mims, WR
Oklahoma | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 161 (No. 24 WR)

An Under Armour All-American coming out high school, Mims has been a key target in the Sooners' high-powered passing attack since arriving in Norman. He earned freshman All-America honors and has led the offense in receiving in each of his first two seasons. (He is on his way again with a team-high 542 yards so far this year.) Whether Spencer Rattler, Caleb Williams or Dillon Gabriel is under center, Mims remains a prominent piece in the Sooners' offense. He has totaled 1,857 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns in his career.


24. Quentin Johnson, WR
TCU | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 63 (No. 7 WR)

Johnson is leading one of the most prolific offenses in the country on a 6-0 TCU team. He is a problem for opposing defenses with his sudden get-off and ability to reach top speed quickly. Getting Johnson the ball consistently prior to the arrival of coach Sonny Dykes was difficult. He is coming off an eight-reception, 180-yard performance in this weekend's upset of Oklahoma State. We expect these types of performances are going to raise his draft stock.


25. Tank Bigsby, RB
Auburn | 2020 ESPN 300 ranking: 20 (No. 2 RB)

The aptly named Tank was among the top running backs in the 2020 class and quickly established himself as one of college football's best. A thickly built powerful runner with good balance and agility, he made an immediate impact, earning SEC Freshman of the Year honors. Bigsby ran for more than 1,000 yards last season and is versatile with good receiving skills, as he remains a key playmaker in the Tigers' offense in 2022. He is coming off a 179-yard, two-touchdown performance against Ole Miss.
