Charles Woodson Ranked No. 1 Heisman Winner Of Past 25 Years

NFL.com put together a power rankings of the best Heisman winners from the past 25 seasons. Charles Woodson, the only defensive player to win the award, was pegged No. 1. Here’s what Jim Reineking of NFL.com wrote about Woodson:

When Tim Brown was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame over the summer, he became the ninth Heisman winner to be enshrined in Canton. Five years after he retires, Woodson will make it an even 10. Woodson was the first — and still only — primarily defensive player to win the Heisman. With 65 career NFL interceptions, Woodson is tied for fifth on the NFL’s all-time list. He’s returned 11 of those interceptions for TDs, just one short of Rod Woodson’s NFL record. During his career rebirth in Green Bay, Woodson earned NFL Defensive POY honors in 2009, one of two seasons in which he led the NFL in interceptions as a Packer. In 2010, Woodson was a member of the Packers’ Super Bowl XLV-winning team.
