A multi-year NFL starting QB told me that the college to pro transition is about the same as going from 8th grade ball straight to Division 1. The spread is unreal.
Think about how many great college players LSU has had in the last 15 years. Not many of those became establish starters. Same for Bama. Studs in college are mostly just regular guys in the Pros. The non-studs from college -- guys that will never start or even play in the NFL-- have to play a whole game where every guy on the other side of the ball is essentially a more experienced version of the best player on their own team (that they don't match up very well against).

Right. The worst player on the worst NFL team was a standout player on his college team. There are routinely players who don't even make an NFL roster who were All-Conference type players. Thinking that a college team could even stand up to an NFL team, even the browns, is completely silly if you stop to think about it for more than a few seconds.
