Cam Newton.
Doesn't look like he'll get there, but it's a reasonable thought. Not so much for his NFL performance, but he's obviously an elite athlete with size and persona to match. A lot of wow factor there, which is a hallmark of MJ, Bo Jackson, Lebron, Tiger, etc. But, he's not going to end up with the requisite achievements, most likely.
That may be the difference in perception, even for high end guys like Brady (playmaking, wow factor, I mean). The video game-like ability of Bo and MJ and Tiger is something I just don't see Trout, Anthony Davis, etc. getting to.

Anthony Davis absolutely has video game reaction and ups...
when he got hurt when we played Chicago, I started to worry that he jumps too high, and flies too fast to hold onto the rim like other players do, and that I'd see that type of injury happen more often in the future
