An Apology to the Heisman Voters

Dear Heisman voters,

Yesterday I called you too stupid to realize that Dillon Gabriel had a better season than Cam Ward. You proved me wrong. I’m sorry I doubted you.

The Curious Case of the Combine Arm Length

-
Image
          Something strange is happening with prospect measurements this year, particularly when it comes to arm length for offensive linemen. Offensive tackles face the most scrutiny when it comes to physical measurements because of their crucial role in protecting quarterbacks. NFL teams generally prefer their tackles to have an arm length of at least 34 inches, with 33 inch arms being good enough to get by. It is almost unheard of for a long-term NFL starter at tackle to have arms shorter than 33 inches long. However, multiple offensive linemen who have been measured twice during the pre-draft process have seen significant discrepancies between their numbers, larger than what has been observed in previous years.      At this year’s NFL Combine, scouts were eager to get official measurements on some of the top offensive line prospects, but the results raised more questions than answers. Many of the most desired tackles came in with shorter-...

The Rookie Jar: Cam Ward

Cam Ward was the first player selected in the 2025 NFL Draft, thanks to the Tennessee Titans and their immediate need for a quarterback. The path he took to become the top pick in the draft is one of the more remarkable stories to come out of this year’s rookie class. Back in 2020, he was a zero-star recruit as a senior in high school who only received one scholarship offer to play Division 1 college football. That offer wasn’t even from an FBS school. Despite this, he carved out a place for himself as a legitimate NFL prospect and has etched his name into the NCAA record books with his play over his 5 years in college. Here is everything you need to know about Cam Ward: Full Name: Cameron Anthony Ward Position: Quarterback Age: 22 (Will turn 23 by rookie season) Height: 6'2" Weight: 219 pounds Hometown: West Columbia, Texas Highest Accolade: 2024 Davey O’Brien Award (Best College QB) The Background Cam Ward was born and raised in the small town of West Columbia, Texas, approx...
