CollegeFootballData /ppa/players/season; opponent-adjusted line value merged from /wepa where available. EPA covers offensive skill touches (passing / rushing / receiving), so this board ranks QB, RB, WR and TE — linemen and defenders have no per-play EPA value to rank. Rows marked ✓ adjalso carry our opponent-adjusted WEPA line value; that is a model estimate of a player's worth, not a market quote.
