I have explored different aspects of my "Offseason Notebook," from breakout candidates, POY watchlists, and top positional groups, so now I want to release my "Wayyy-Too-Early" team rankings. Before I show you my list, I wanted to note that these are not my official "Preseason" rankings, as there is still a lot of information I don't know going into the summer window. Once players officially join their new teams and some positional battles start to clear up, I will release my preseason rankings (mid-August).</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here is my Wayyy-Too-Early Class D2 Top 10 rankings as we head into the summer:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">Top 10 Class D2:</span></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>1.
