Here's some regional bias from Florida. Doesn't even include McC in his top 3, and puts Dalvin Cook 1st.

His reasoning:
"Without question, McCaffrey is the most versatile player in the country. He was second nationally in rushing and kickoff return yards, and he topped Barry Sanders' record for single-season all-purpose yardage. Sanders' 1988 season might have been the best year of any player in college football history, so topping that hallowed mark is impressive. But McCaffrey's season included 15 more kickoff returns, which yield more yards than a carry or catch. One other number jumped out: 13. That's how many touchdowns he scored - No. 34 nationally and second on his own team. Add in his two touchdown passes, and his 15 TDs accounted for would be the lowest by a Voldemort winner in almost three decades. That's why, after landing on my initial ballot, he was painfully removed on the final one."
