Florida recruiting QB's

After the Sr. bowl workouts Tim Tebow will bomb, will or should QB recruits start looking a little harder at how Florida will set them up for the NFL?
Alex Smith was the #1 pick out of Meyer's system and it didn't translate well into the NFL. It's taken him quite some time to develop into at least an "OK" NFL QB after probably shaking Meyer's coaching.
If a kid is thinking of an NFL career, should Florida be a red flag after everything that Tebow and Smith will/have gone through?
Just a thought. More times than not, you'll see alot of recruits mention "so and so will get me ready for the NFL." If you were a school recruiting against Florida, shouldn't this area be used and be used time and time again?
Just a thought. Florida has Brantley, but after that.....the QB's that have signed with Florida recently.....
Bryan Waggener
Jordan Reed
Trey Burton
Tyler Murphy
these are all Dual Threat QB's. Looking forward, who are legit NFL prospects?

Tyler Murphy might be a wideout

Meyer's system does not develop good QBs or OL.

i agree with you that the system doesnt help them in the NFL. well see how meyer handles brantley who from what ive heard is an NFL type talent.

Nobody cares how Alex Smith turned out in the NFL. He got his money...I'm sure this is all these recruits care about. Will recruits start questioning LSU because JMac is looking like a huge bust for the Raiders? No. They'll see he had $$$ signs all over him.
No way in hell a recruit would question anything at Florida right now anyway...if anything, they'd see it as a opportunity to get early PT as a QB. When you win, it doesn't matter.

Quarterback isn't like other positions, whereas there is no school known for producing solid NFL quarterbacks.
USC had Palmer and Sanchez who have worked out and Leinart (so far a major bust), but I can't think of any other school that is pumping out NFL quality quarterbacks.
So, I think the answer to your question is "no" you can't use that against Florida.
Now, you can definitely use that argument in various other positions.

UF hasn't put shite into the NFL in the way of offensive talent for years now and it hasn't slowed them down.

Great thread. I was actually wondering this as well. But I guess the same can be asked of all schools that run this type offense.

They did kind of whiff on QBs this year. They only signed Trey Burton who is just a 3-star prospect.
Burton is just the #18 dual-threat QB prospect this year

Alot of talk about this on the airwaves recently. Seems that I'm not the only one that thinks that Florida can only recruit certain type QB's.
