This list of top 50 players looks different from Nate Tice’s, including less love for one Penn State star but more love for another — and Ashton Jeanty.

The St. Louis Cardinals are shutting Jordan Walker down for at least a week after he suffered a left knee injury from stepping on a sprinkler.
The organization’s former top prospect underwent an MRI on Tuesday that revealed no structural damage but did show irritation in the knee.
“It is what it is,” Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol told reporters on Wednesday. “We’ll let it calm down for a week and then we’ll ramp that baby back up, and we’ll still have time to see him in plenty of [spring training] games.
He’s a classic weakside edge rusher that teams will try to hide against the run. Pearce’s frame and speed-only style gives apprehension about how he will affect the game if he doesn’t win right away.
Who is going dancing out of the Big South?
Let’s have some fun.
The highest-ranked team in the NET rankings out of the Big South conference is High Point University, checking in at No. 86 overall with their 26-5 record. Ken Pomeroy’s rankings have High Point at No. 88.
The next team in the conference? That would be Radford. Their 17-12 record has Radford ranked 164 in the NET, and 156 in Pomeroy’s set of rankings.
For those wondering, the Highlanders are the No. 4 seed in the Big Conference tournament.
Wednesday was a busy day in the NFL, particularly on the wide receiver market. The Seattle Seahawks are facing the biggest changes since they released Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf requested a trade.
Elsewhere, the Jacksonville Jaguars parted ways with Christian Kirk.
After 10 seasons in Seattle, the team officially let Lockett walk, ending a successful partnership. Lockett produced 8,594 yards, including four straight 1,000-yard seasons from 2019-22.
Despite his age (Lockett turns 33 in September), the veteran still figures to have several teams vying for his services.
Overall, Judkins has the size, explosive play ability and hands of a strong three-down running back who can take the majority of touches in a backfield.
Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin is closing in on the NHL’s all-time goal-scoring record and now needs just 12 goals to pass Wayne Gretzky’s mark of 894.
What’s cool though, is that with all the attention on Ovechkin as he looks to pot another 11 goals in the Capitals‘ remaining 21 games this season, the Great 8 is giving back.
On Wednesday, Pvechkin announced that Ovechkin is partnering with the V Foundation for Cancer Research and the Hockey Fights Cancer to launch an initiative called “The GR8 CHASE for Victory over Cancer.
Justin Turner was on the Seattle Mariners in the 2024 season, and didn’t like what he saw.
Bob Nightengale at USA Today spoke to Turner, who signed with the Chicago Cubs in the offseason, about why Seattle once again missed the postseason. And Turner went off, criticizing the team’s ownership and lack of interest in building the best possible team.
His comments mostly centered on the Mariners’ unwillingness to build on their dominant pitching staff, one that featured George Kirby, Logan Gilbert, Bryce Miller, Luis Castillo and Bryan Woo.
He didn’t have the flashy season that Ashton Jeanty did, but he may wind up in the first round regardless with his blend of size and athleticism that teams covet in running backs.
It’s a great year for teams that need help in the trenches or pass rushing, while a QB1 sneaks into top 10. Tap in for a scouting report.
