NFL.com: 15 for '15: Top Heisman Trophy candidates for 2015

15. Corey Clement, RB, Wisconsin

14. James Conner, RB, Pittsburgh

13. Anu Solomon, QB, Arizona

12. Connor Cook, QB, Michigan State

11. Taysom Hill, QB, BYU

Particulars: 6-2, 232, senior

The skinny: Hill is the only player from outside the "Power Five" conferences on our list. He was 10th nationally in total offense in 2013, then was on his way to an even better season last fall before he suffered a broken leg in the fifth game. If he's healthy, he will put up big numbers for the Cougars. Hill has OK speed and is a physical runner who'd just as soon run over a defender as run around him. And while he's not a highly polished passer, that facet of his game showed improvement before he was hurt last season.

10. Royce Freeman, RB, Oregon

9. Samaje Perine, RB, Oklahoma

8. Dalvin Cook, RB, Florida State

7. Cody Kessler, QB, USC

6. Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU

5. Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Ohio State

4. Dak Prescott, QB, Mississippi State

3. Nick Chubb, RB, Georgia

2. J.T. Barrett and Cardale Jones, QBs, Ohio State

1. Trevone Boykin, QB, TCU

Their analysis is wrong. He has very good speed and he'd just as soon leap OVER a defender as run over or around him.

His speed will shock people at the combine next year, and he'll begin to climb draft boards. Plus he's a mid to high 60% passer with low TO's. His age and his injury history will temper some of the excitement, but he's likely a 2nd or 3rd round pick next year right now. Could go up.

Leap over a defender.

I wish I had "OK" speed like that! As long as he stays injury free, he will climb that list.
