Why does this guy keep flashing Heisman like that means anything?

Before and since Cam Newton wasn't winning the Heisman like the KOD anyway?

Johnny Football and Baker Mayfield both have them.

Not that you aren't right, but I think Burrow and Devonte Smith kind of broke the KOD curse on Heisman winners.

Yeah Heisman winning means nothing but underwear measurements are the gold standard. Make sense, hypocrite.

You're comparing a crucial part of the evaluation process for the position to an award many of footballs greatest QB's never even won? Alright then 🫡

Crucial part = what he did on the playing field or throwing to dudes with no one open? Or having them run in a straight line? Kinda confused.

Cam Newton and Joe Burrow are two of the most recent to have substantial success in the last decade plus.

I think if anything it's a take it or leave it item in the overall consideration process. It doesn't boost or pull down a prospect to have or not have one.

Comparing QB's to wide receivers now? Someone is flustered.

Ah yes because QB pro days are the deciding factor in final decisions. If I remember correctly , Willis killed his pro day. Now they’re looking to replace him after 4 games with an even rawer prospect.

Oh I wasn't aware Malik's career was already over at 23 years old.

The standards around here sure have changed from when you folks were calling 24 year old Sam Darnold basically a rookie 🥴

Oh, well maybe now you’re aware? Because I mean Willis was “supposed to go round one after his awesome pro day “ yeah that didn’t happen. When he got on the field, it looked even worse. I’d say the hype coming from TEN about wanting ar15 (who is a rawer, higher upside Willis) tells me his career is pretty much never going to blossom. Just like Corral here. Is it fair? Probably not. But the fact and point of the matter is, the measurement stuff doesn’t matter to me. Everyone looks great when the pressure isn’t there.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By CRA · Posted

      my understanding is a big time throw, could be a 5-10 yard slant to Adam Thielen given AT isn't going to separate.

      It's a subjective stat that PFF made up. https://www.pff.com/news/pro-pff-qb-grading-most-effective-tool-there-is
