In an article about the award, he mentions 3 Panthers players who showed an incredible attitude in the weight room:

Shaq, Norwell, Oher.

It's a good read in discussing the importance of strength & conditioning to the team, and how much it helps that Rivera is "a weight room guy" who gets that physical strength & toughness really matters.

San Francisco 49ers strength and conditioning coach Mark Uyeyama will present Kenn with the award this week in Indianapolis. Uyeyama interned for Kenn when he became the strength coach at the University of Utah in 1999, and they’ve been close ever since.

Damn, Utah really is our best college source of talent

    • I mean, Brees was a sub 6' guy too(although they listed him as 6 foot). It is not a worry if you are an elite player. Even Flutie Flakes was able to succeed at the NFL level at his height. All QB's still need throwing lanes and different QB's play the game in a way that maximizes their abilities so they can be successful. All these sub-6 QB's we are talking about have had more NFL success that easily 80+% of 6-3 or better NFL QB's. That's why I keep beating this horse. It isn't about measurables, it's about abilities. That extends well beyond the QB position. Xavier Legette has elite abilities and measurables. Yet a slight little midget with no where near the athleticism is an infinitely better WR(McConkey). Jonathan Mingo is way more athletic than Puka Nacua. How is that working out? Never hyperfocus on measurables. It's a small part of a much bigger picture.   
    • His legs looked limited in school to me. Good enough at that level but it never looked NFL level. All the guys you mentioned made Bryce look slow and limited. What propped him up was other non-NFL level guys on the field.  Absolutely on the 2nd part. That's becaude when he bails he doesn't have to ability to make it work more often. Lots of times this year and past teams let him scramble because they obviously didn't see it as a serious threat. Hell Payton was allowed to run because he was so slow and took off so infrequently. Bryce isn't that bad but he is closer to that than to Murray. 
    • This.  Its not tennessee bad, but the Ole Miss offense is a very hard one to correlate to nfl.
