[Whitey23]

PFW’s All-America team annually honors college football’s most talented players and is determined based on extensive evaluation and considerable feedback from NFL evaluators, taking into consideration how players grade out both in their assignments and by the quality of critical playing traits. PFW honors are distinguished by the premium placed on skill, football temperament and instincts and seek to recognize players we expect will become outstanding pros. Players are expected to have contributed for the bulk of the season to qualify. Production is considered, but not weighed nearly as heavily as how much of an impact players make on their teams. Extra attention is paid to traits such as toughness, intelligence and competitiveness, all traits that we believe correlate heavily to future NFL success.

 

[JJReddawg]

Wow! That's awesome for him.

 

[Upstate]

Commence Ville tears.

 

[Whitey23]

I'm glad someone out there recognizes talent!

4th quarter comebacks and game-winning drives, on top of crazy production.

Was just about to post this. Pretty awesome.

 

[kingottoiii]

Still not a Top 50 QB though

 

[Rocco]

2 star... pffft

 

[jekelish]

He's no Greg Paulus.

 

[RMH44]

Congrats to Ryan!

FFCC can bite me.

 

[bnoro]

BJ Daniels is better though, right FanFanClubClub?

Why even bring up the name of douchedouchebagbag. :bang:

 

[jcuse44]

This is a pretty cool honor. Its nice to finally have him named with the other big time producers and talents.

I also see that Barkley did not even get honorable mention. And that 2 of the 3 QB's named are from the Big East (!).

 

[Czar]

No Manziel? I can't take this seriously. I have no idea what it's measuring.

Pro potential

I assume its draftable QB's

 

[jcuse44]

manziel has about as much chance in the nfl as charlie ward did.

 

[Upstate]

manziel has about as much chance in the nfl as charlie ward did.

So if everything turns out as planned, he'll be the starting Knicks point guard in about 5 years

 

[Cadillac]

Manziel or not, that is one scary team. Even if you follow the rest of CFB casually, the names jump out at you. Just awesome company for Nassib.

Also makes you think about his draft position coming up, if he is going to impress during the interviews, as speculated here.

 

[Orangeyes]

The publication selects its team based on feedback from NFL evaluators. Draft analyst Nolan Nawrocki chose the team. Nassib led the Big East Conference with 312.3 yards per game and 301.6 yards passing per game. He also set the Orange’s single-season records for completions (283), yards (3,619), and touchdowns (24).

Exactly. Even the rosiest of predictions around here may turn out to be underrated. It's tremendous.

Congrats to Ryan. His hard work has led to this recognition.
