Well, we are past the halfway point of the season so we should get a decent read on the candidates.

I'd say Mariotta, Winston, and Manziel are the three top candidates.

Bridgewater's numbers are fine, but I don't think they are Heisman worthy. Aaron Murray, Tajh Boyd, and Mett are all out of the race.

I think Lache Seastrunk and Melvin Gordon are putting up incredible numbers, but I bet there are many voters who couldn't even identify which teams those guys play on.

Marqise Lee has been out of it since Week 1, unfortunately.

Mike Evans has to warrant some consideration at this point, but Manziel is just going to take too much of the spotlight.

I think if the season ended today, I would vote 1) Winston 2) Manziel 3) Gordon 4) Mariotta 5) Evans

I kinda think Manziel's novelty is wearing off. You don't hear about him much after the Bama game and now his team lost again. While he's having a better year than last statistically, I don't think he's got a great shot of winning it again. Probably will be in the finals though.

The best player in all of college football is Jameis Winston.

Your top five:

1. Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State
2. Marcus Mariotta, QB, Oregon
3. Johnny Manziel, QB, Texas A&M
4. Lache Seastrunk, RB, Baylor
5. Mike Evans, WR, Texas A&M

Winston should be the frontrunner, Mariota is due to get exposed.

I guess you HAVE to put Mariota second.

Mike Evans is third for me.

McCarron is gonna get an invite to NY as a lifetime achievement thing.

Melvin Gordon is my other guy. So five guys.

Winston is #1. Mariotta #2. If Baylor keeps winning, look out for Brice Petty

Only answer to this point is winston. When mariota plays someone with a pulse maybe he gets a look.

I hate how this has turned into a trophy for QBs. I would vote for Mike Davis
