re: The Athletic: Who is the best college player of the past 25 years?

Peppers is too low.
I’d have PP over the Honey Badger- especially since he played one more year.
And wasn’t Fournette the better college player over CMAC? I know they played at the same time. Definitely a tougher league/competition.

Suh is and was a better CFB player than Burrow and that’s not a knock on Burrow
David Pollock had better single season stats and a better college career than Suh. He wasn't an NFL player, so Suh gets more hype. Suh was a great college player, but the third best over the last 25 years?

Couldn't stand the dude but not having Manziel on there is pretty wild. Also Tyrann is too low.

duh having as many sacks as he did as a DT is insane.
he dominated that BIG12 Championship game
up there with tyrann as one of the most disruptive defensive football players if ever seen

No Darren McFadden?

No Manziel, and Lamar over VY and Tebow stands out. Neither of those things make much sense.

You're comparing a defensive end with a defensive tackle. That's how dominant Suh was.

I'm guessing the coaches and nfl people he interviewed weren't high on manziel

I would put Tebow higher for having a longer period of sustained success. Most of the guys in front of him only really had one dominating season.
Posted on 5/20/25 at 12:35 pm to RLDSC FAN
How da fuq is Tim Tebow that low?

Good point, they don't really compare. Suh was definitely dominant and the best interior d-lineman of the era. I just don't think he was top 3 overall.

McCaffery had 7000 all-purpose yards and Fournette had 5000. Both played from 2014-2016. SEC defenses were tougher but that's a big difference.
The RB that was snubbed here was McFadden.

Burrow and Cam were 1 season wonders. Reggie Bush was a force from Day 1 at USC
Posted on 5/20/25 at 12:42 pm to RLDSC FAN
1. Burrow
2. Manziel
3. Bush
4. Tebow
5. Newton

Cam and Jeaux.
They carried terrible coaches to natties.

Joe wasn’t average in 2018 he was very good.
You lost to Alabama 29-0 at home in 2018.
He was average.
ETA: Burrow was 18-35 for 184 yards and a pick.
Again, average.
