How Heisman finalists Mayfield, Love, Jackson project as NFL prospects

NFL Draft, NFL, Louisville Cardinals, Oklahoma Sooners, Stanford Cardinal

Editor's note: Mayfield won the Heisman Trophy on Saturday night. 

The field for the 83rd Heisman Trophy is set -- Baker Mayfield, Bryce Love and Lamar Jackson are the finalists to take home the award for most outstanding college football player of 2017.

Baker Mayfield, QB, Oklahoma Sooners

2017 stats: 4,340 passing yards while completing 71.0 percent of his passes; 41 passing touchdowns to five interceptions; 310 rushing yards and five touchdowns; 93.1 Total QBR (second in FBS)
