247 released their top 247 players going into the 2017 season and VT was well represented with 7 players on the list.
In order from lowest to highest: 245-Facyson, 235-Phillips, 205-Edmunds (Terrell), 167-Alexander, 143-Teller, 88-Stroman, 18-Edmunds (Tremaine).
Tremaine also received a 5 star rating. I know this list is pretty much meaningless and will definitely look much different at the end of the year but it's still nice to see a solid representation of Hokies on the list.
Only 31 more days....

This list is so much better than ESPNs top 50, which had like 14 qbs in the top 15 and 1 OL in the top 50.
As for our guys, I think its close enough.
As much as I don't want it to happen, I feel like Tremaine Edmunds is going to be a top 15 draft pick next year if he has the kind of season we all think he's going to have.
I think Bud does too.
The "Ankle Assassin" is highly underrated.
He's good, but, is he really that good? I thought people were higher on Motu.
I love how this time last year people were talking about what a liability Motuapuaka was, and this summer there's been talk about us having potentially the best LB tandem in the country.
Just goes to show 1) how much we really don't know when trying to predict the future of a player, and 2) how important experience is for the development of a college football player.
Motu got much better last season , but the comparison isn't even close. Tremaine is the PREDATOR
