Yeah, NO

He's above average at best.

Lamar doesn't belong on there. Hell, Barrett is arguably having just as good a season as Jackson is. Love, Penny, Rosen, Rudolph are all better options right now.

 

[WizardHawk]

It's Mayfield/Barkley right now with Love moving up sharply as a dark horse with potential.

QB Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma)

Baker just had an awesome week where he attempted 0 passes for 0 yards and 0 interceptions....

 

[Codaxx]

It's Saquon Barkley and everyone else at this point. That can change, but he is way out in front at the first turn

 

[vOptix]

The entire Clemson defensive line.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Barkley, followed by Rosen. Rosen came into last night's game leading the NCAA in yards and TD's.

 

[HuskerOC]

The entire Clemson defensive line.

That crew can flat bring it. Damn.

Josh Jackson can play. Fuente is solid. Lot of good things to look forward to in Hokie land.

 

[WizardHawk]

Rosen wouldn't be in my top 4. 5th maybe. He's buried on a lackluster team that is unranked and has none of the pressure of the national spotlight on them because of that. Both losses came with him having sub par performances with 2 INTs in both games. That's not going to earn you a Heisman no matter what the rest of your stats say.

Agreed... I wouldn't be surprised to see Luke Falk pass Rosen either if the Cougs continue to win...

Right now, it has to be Barkley has the front runner imo...

 

[iowajerms]

I haven't watched Rosen that much, so I might have a wrong impression about him.

I am impressed with him as a clutch QB, but doesn't he make a lot of mistakes early in the game to get UCLA behind?

1. Barkley
2. Mayfield
3. Love
4. Falk
5. Jackson

 

[DHoey]

The heisman is lame. If I won it, I would decline it as to not be associated with the past winners.

 

[B_dub]

Barkley right now. Lots of time though.

 

[romeo212000]

Gotta go with Barkley at the moment but Mayfield is nipping at his heels. Everyone else is in a distant third.

 

[tducey]

Went with Baker Mayfield.

Always impressive for a college QB.
