    I think McFadden will finish second in the voting, with more than a couple of first-place votes.

    Well, you were spot-on about that.

    Why are people knocking Smith's chances in the NFL? He's done pretty damn good job, and it's not like he's running the option. Good pocket presence, but not a statue. Great arm. What am I not seeing that suggests he's going to be a total bust?

    Is he even six feet tall? That will hurt him in the draft. Scouts hate short QBs, saying they'll have trouble seeing receivers downfield with all those 6-4 rushers and 6-6 OLs in front of them.

    Isn't that about the size most college linemen are now anyway? I mean obviously there are some physical attributes you need, but the overanalysis of it is what made Mike Mamula a top 10 pick many years ago. Winners simply win and get it done. And that's what Smith has done.

    It's also what Gina Torretta had done.
    And Jason White.
