PALM BEACH COUNTY – In the ninth and penultimate iteration of Palm Beach County’s player rankings for the Class of 2026, we have made some more adjustments.
We have one all-new Top 10 entry and plenty of movement throughout this list as we expanded from 75 to 100 players. We also have a Next 25 list, which means that a total of 125 players were at least considered for the Top 100.
We considered only two factors:
•Performances from Week 0 to the All-Star games
•Film study and evaluation of players
As always, we place on-field production above all else. In addition, we have spent a lot of time watching Hudl film, looked over and double-checked statistics from the first half of the regular season, 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.
