Spring Top 30: Class of 2027 – Palm Beach County

PALM BEACH COUNTY – In the second iteration of Palm Beach County’s player rankings for the Class of 2027, some adjustments were made.

We have two new Top 10 entries. Both of them are linemen with more than 10 FBS offers to date, which counts for something these days. 

And from the 11-30 spots, we have three additional new entries there.

This means we have five total new entries, expanding the list from 25 to 30 players. We also have a Close to 30 list, which consists of 10 players that we strongly considered for the Top 30.

The focus was on at least three things:

•Spring game performance 

•Film study and evaluation of players

•Offer count and quality of offers

PLEASE NOTE: We will always place on-field production above all else. But now that college coaches are looking for players to commit to their schools as early as possible, we will place more of an emphasis on that as well.

With that said, we have spent a lot of time watching Hudl film, looked over and double-checked statistics throughout the ranked players’ junior seasons and for their spring games, pored over the quality and quantity of college scholarship offers they received, and heeded to advice from at least one highly credible outside source. 

DISCLAIMER: We will never reveal any of our sources who lead, guide, and direct us with our player rankings or anything else in relation to any content we release to the public. This is a standard journalistic practice that must always be strictly followed for confidentiality and credibility purposes.
