Questions about Ryan Leaf ...?

Question

The former quarterback for Washington State could throw the ball and did very well while in college. What happened in the Pros? Was he frightened? Did the Talent fairy take away his skills? Was he just a over-hyped phenom who wasn't as good as People said he was? He did finish 3rd in the Heisman Ballot so obviously he had talent. What happened Where did it go?

Answer 1

i think it was a combination of all of those things sure he was good, but his talent just didn't carry over to the NFL he is not the only one that this has happened too Chris Weinke Won heisman went 1-15 as a starter tim couch 1st pick didn't ever work out Byron Leftwich amazing in college fighting for a roster spot in Pittsburgh some Qb's have what it takes to be in an elite NFL QB some don't

Answer 2

Answer 3

Uhhhhh...I think it's just the different rules, and the difference of speed level between college and the NFL

Answer 4

The word was he was a kid that didnt work at fine points of game and thought he was above working hard. He alienated some team mates and just didnt get off on right foot. There were also rumors that he was a coke head.........

Answer 5

I hate Ryan Leaf. He made all Montanan's look bad. Nobody here is as big a douche bag as he is.
