Is Mendoza the worst Heisman winner in recent memory?

I’ve been saying for weeks that it’s crazy that Mendoza won the Heisman and is being talked about as the first QB drafted. IMO, Mendoza = JJ McCarthy
Mendoza doesn’t have to do anything for his team to win, his run game and defense carry him and there’s nothing electric about him. Trinidad and Ty Simpson are better than him by a significant margin

People are gonna down vote you. But, his overall stats aren't impressive when compared to recent Heisman QBs. He has been very efficient and made throws when he has to.

He's in that running
Hunter, Mendoza, Ingram are probably the three worst since 2009

He will run the game winner into the end zone like Beck and Vince Young

eh, I didn't think anyone deserved it over him this year.

I thought Ingram was 3rd the year he won. I'd have gone Suh and Gerhart over him.
