Also, no Charlie Ward?

But wasn't that because Ward wasn't drafted?

In any event, you're right. He never played in the NFL.

I'm not sure why White and Frazier would be on that list. Did they even get an opportunity to play QB in the NFL?

tebow should be #1, he is already out of the league, and his college career was better than most of the other guys on the list. jason white won a heisman and played for a few national titles. frazier won a few national titles, and was arguably nebraskas greatest qb ever.

ryan leaf had 1 good/great season iirc, the rest of the guys on the list had long, successful college careers.

charlie ward should probably be somewhere on this list.

I'm not. His career wasn't as great in college as the other guys on the list

Russell is about on par with ryan leaf. their college careers are nowhere near as accomplished as these other guys on the list.

True. He had one solid season. He won himself the #1 overall pick because he lit-up sorry Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl. A couple of downfield bombs, and Al Davis was jizzing on himself.

I'm surprised that Vince Young is on the list. At least he started for a few seasons.
And what about some of those Heisman trophy winners from the 60s and the 70s, like Pat Sullivan, Steve Spurrier and Gary Beban? They all had dismal numbers for their NFL careers.

VY deserves it because of how dominant he was as a college player and how much he achieved throughout his career. He is the best college qb on that list(yes i would take him as my "college" qb over tim tebow). the only guy I've seen in my lifetime who was as dominant as a college qb is cam newton.

What about Tim Couch. Didn't he get drafted no.1?

I understand the premise of the list, but only wuerffel is one you could have said might have a decent NFL career. the rest really had no shot at being good NFL qb's. maybe vince young, maybe.

only 1 guy on that list won a playoff game in the NFL.

Leinart and Young are the only ones on that list that anybody projected as having NFL level talent. Wuerffel played a few years as a backup(even started some for the saints i believe) but he was a low round pick and nobody expected him to do anything in the nfl, the arm strength and mechanics weren't there.
