ANALYSIS
The highly anticipated bowl game decision for this year's Heisman finalist has been made. Pickett has opted to forego playing in the Peach Bowl and instead will begin training for the 2022 NFL Draft. Pickett spent five years at Pitt and was the team's primary starter since 2018. He totaled 11,794 yards and 42 touchdowns through the air along with 708 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns on the ground during his career. Pickett will conclude an illustrious collegiate career after throwing for over 4,300 yards and 42 touchdowns to go against seven picks in 2021 and certainly has the physical tools and football IQ to be successful at the next level.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Pickett feels like he’s been forever, and will now enter his fourth season as the Panthers starter after taking over in the latter portion of 2017. The team hasn’t had a rushing attack since James Conner departed, so Pickett has been forced to throw often. And unfortunately, that volume hasn’t led to big production. He’s thrown for just 12 or 13 touchdowns in each of the last three years, often times mixing multiple score games with goose eggs. He is a threat with his legs, running for 13 scores as a starter, but there just seems to be a glaring lack of upside in Pickett’s game. Wideout Jordan Allison is a bonafide stud, and his supporting cast isn’t bad, and Pickett did average 267.5 yards per game last year. But that seems like his ceiling, with a few more scores spread out over additional games.
