Newton was good but his body is broken down.
Griffin was decent but got maimed several times, and lost the speed which made him dangerous.
Lamar is an MVP
Murray looks to be pretty good, he’s been on a up and down team with a coach from college ranks learning the NFL.

Well if there was an nfl to go to, the Heisman curse would flatten his career anyway.

“3 white guys and a black”

You mean Ray Charles could spot the winner?

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!

Congratulations to DeVonta. Amazing athlete and a great individual.

Congrats to DeVonta, Mac and Najee. The fact that Bama had three nominees in the top five is proof of Bama’s insane offensive talent.

“At one time, it was a given that a senior would win the Heisman Trophy. “

I believe that changed with Archie Giffin.

Thanks for expanding. Lamar was the 1 good one I referred to.

The real vote will be the draft - the MVP will be a QB not Davonta. Davonta prob won’t go in the top 10.

If not for Najee Harris, Mac Jones would have placed second. Next year, no one will even care that he was 2nd, or 3rd. If the vote had been taken after DeVonta Smith’s performance against Notre Dame, he likely would have gotten another 75-100 1st place votes. He has NFL+ speed and quickness.

As for Mac Jones, he had a fantastic season. He also had maybe the best offensive line in the country, and the best group of receivers. Could have accomplished the same numbers at another school? Probably not. Alabama QB’s have not done so well in the NFL, but I think Jones is different. He should do very well. Sark is a genius QB and OC coach who will undoubtedly be able to recruit some of the best QBs and receivers in the country.
