2010 stats: 686 yards, 10 TD, 12 rec., 109 yards, TD, 238 return yards, TD

An injury ended Ellington’s 2010 campaign after eight games. Through those eight games last year, Ellington posted four 100-yard games and 11 total touchdowns. He was on pace for a breakout season and has the talent to explode in 2011.

Why he’s ranked 19th: The Athlon Sports preseason second-team All-ACC performer should have a 1,000-yard season if he can stay healthy. He has game-changing ability and should be the focal point of an offense that features a solid offensive line returning in front of him.

Clemson had only Ellington in Athlon's top 25 list of top players in the ACC.
