With another incredible season of college football over everyone is already anticipating next season. Some of the best athletes that we have ever seen get to return for another great year. This list is gonna include the top 5 returning athletes on offense in the FBS for next season.
5. Lamar Jackson

4. J.T. Barrett

3. Leonard Fournette
This will come as a surprise to many but I ranked him here for two reasons only. One reason is once teams started loading the tackle box he got shut down. It seemed like it was impossible to take him down at the beginning of the season and that he would keep having 200-yard rushing games till the cows came home. But once LSU played Alabama (and got destroyed by them) everyone figured out their weakness. You load the box because LSU can't throw the ball. The second reason I state this is it's sometimes hard to recreate a season or improve on what was already an incredible season for him. He broke the record for most rushing yards in a season by an LSU running back (1,686 yards) that had been held for 29 years.2. Deshaun Watson
Deshaun Watson is easily the best quarterback in college football at the moment. Even though Clemson lost to Alabama in the national championship, Dashaun Watson almost led a comeback win. He's shown that he can be clutch in a lot of game situations and for this being his first season he ended 14-1. How many quarterbacks can say that in their first full season?
1. Christian McCaffrey
Christian McCaffrey was the best player in the 2015-2016 in my opinion. He broke one of the all-time greats of college football Barry Sanders all-purpose yards record (3,250) in the second quarter of the Pac 12 championship. He ended with 3,864 total all-purpose yards at the end of the season. In 2 years alone he has 4,660 all-purpose yards. Honestly, if he was at a more prestigious program (nothing against Stanford) that has a history of winning championships or being ranked in the top 5 every year he would of hands down had the Heisman.
