Pro Football Focus released a list of the top 101 players for the 2022 season, and Notre Dame placed three players on that list, including two in the Top 15.
Tight end Michael Mayer was Notre Dame’s tallest player and ranked No. 9 on the list. Mayer also ranked No. 1 in the nation.
“Mayer has been arguably the best tight end in the country the last two years, with over 800 yards in both seasons. He led all tight ends this year with a 92.5 grade. Not only is he a weapon in the passing game, but his 82.1 run blocking grade was third among all tight ends in the nation . The Irish will certainly miss Mayer, who was a mismatch against almost every college defense.” – PFF
Sophomore left tackle Joe Alt was next for Notre Dame and ranked 11th overall on the list. Alt was also named the nation’s top forward.
“Alt led all offensive tackles in the country with a 91.4 grade and a 91.0 run-blocking grade, and his dominance extended to pass protection, as his 99.0 pass-blocking efficiency grade was tied for fifth among all FBS running backs. did all of this as a true sophomore, making Expose one of the top prospects in the 2024 draft.” – PFF
Freshman cornerback Benjamin Morrison decided the Irish players in the rankings. Well. 85 overall player and No. 10 cornerback.
“A true freshman, Morrison was the absolute No. 1 last season. He recorded six interceptions — the most among Power Five players. He also allowed just a 29.2 passer rating when targeted, which ranked fourth-lowest among FBS cornerbacks. For comparison: The ball per snap gives 39.6 pitcher rating.” – PFF
Incoming transfer quarterback Sam Hartman ranked #71 on the list for his performance at Wake Forest in 2022.
“After a breakout 2021, Hartman was just as good in 2022, adding 39 touchdowns to his college resume. He increased his completion percentage by five percentage points to go along with a 71.2 percent adjusted graduation rate. Hartman will have one more year to add to his college stats, but will do it a Our Lady uniform. Expect big things for the Fighting Irish offense next season with this quarterback.” – PFF
Notre Dame ranked sixth with the most players on this list. Georgia had the most players on the list with eight, followed by USC with seven.
