I was just checking out Heisman.com....I was looking at winners for the past few years and the candidates that were given consideration, but did not win. There are some really successful NFL players that weren't given much consideration. Some of these winners we haven't heard from again...or haven't heard much from. Here are a few that DID NOT win.
This was in 1999, Ron Dayne won that year.
Michael Vick 3rd place
Drew Brees 4rd place
Chad Pennington 5th place
Shaun Alexander 7th place
Thomas Jones 8th place
In 1998 Ricky Williams (winner)
Donovan McNabb - 5th place
Duante Culpepper - 6th place
Champ Bailey - 7th place
1997 Charles Woodson winner
2nd - Peyton Manning
4th Randy Moss
While most of these winners have had decent NFL careers ..the ones who go on to become the big shots aren't always the winners. And I realize that there's no way to know how well someone is going to do in the NFL. I also think IMO that players who attend larger schools get more consideration. So truthfully...I don't care who wins...Congrats to them.
