Matt Leinert

I can't think of his name but there was a QB that his father groomed to be a QB. He took all kinds of vitamins and never ate a cheeseburger in his life. He played for KC and then washed out. Leinert reminds me of him.

Jason White
Carson Palmer
Eric Crouch
Chris Weinke
Danny Wuerffel
Charlie Ward
Gino Torretta
Ty Detmer
Andre Ware
Vinny Testaverde

Carson Palmer can play and Vinny Testaverde could have been called a player at some point in his career, but other than that you couldn't start a QB summer camp with this crew.

you might wanna add alki smith to your list too.

that guy i felt was very overated when he came out of oregon. that guy had one really solid year, and parlayed it, into the 3rd pick overall.

you're definitely right BBD, but that list is just Heisman winners.

**bigboydan** · 12-23-05, 03:17 AM

noted, after relooking at your list. yes, they are all former heisman winners that were worthless in the pros. i could add doug flutie to the list. but, the guy didn't have that bad of carreer really. although, it was mainly in the CFL.

the guy's the best decision maker in college football...period...

**isetcap** · 12-23-05, 05:49 AM

perhaps, but does he have the physical attributes necessary at the next level, and will his decision making speed adjust to the NFL game?

**RamblinRoyce** · 12-23-05, 08:10 PM

and will his skills perform well against Vince and the longhorns? I love UT as a bet... they are severely underrated next to USC. It's amazing how much lack of respect UT is garnering...guess it's cuz they're dang texans and they deserve no respect... but UT is gonna whoop 'em.

Sure Reggie Bush is an awe-inspiring RB, but they can't rely on him the whole game. Once Bush is shut down, Young and the horns are gonna out-perform Leinert.
