Picking college football's best players in August is a dicey proposition. For instance, go back and see how many people had Kyler Murray as the best quarterback in the country -- let alone the Heisman Trophy winner -- at this time a year ago.
As we unveil ESPN's 2019 preseason All-America team, keep in mind that this isn't necessarily a reflection of what players have done to this point. That's part of it, but an even bigger part is who we think will be the best players on the field this season, based on traveling the preseason camp circuit, talking to coaches and consulting with colleagues.
