re: I am too young to remember, but why didn't Jason White get drafted?

I want to say he had like 14 knee surgeries in college.

Never know 100%, but I'd say that injuries played a major factor.

injuries aside- he was nothing but a college QB
I remember watching him warm up before the 03 NC and knowing that they had no chance because of him. His throwing mechanics were slow and poor and every pass he threw floated.

I think he tried out for the Titans, but didn't make it. You can find him, Steve Owens and Billy "Boom-uh" Sims signing autographs (for a fee)from time to time..

He didn't have an ounce of talent

So basically the worst qb to win the heisman?

He was an outstanding collage QB, but it didn't translate to the NFL.
I happens all the time.

He's another in the lengthy list of overrated OU QBs.
Kevin Wilson is a bad arse.

He had torn ACL's in both knees. He was slow only after the knee injury. Pre-injury he was a very mobile, run first qb. You do not routinely throw balls that travel 50-60 yards in the air if you have a weak arm. The dude threw the prettiest, most accurate deep ball I have ever seen from a college qb. Ironically, if the injuries had never occurred I do not think he would have been the elite passer he turned out to be.

I was about to post this almost exactly. You hit it spot on IMO

He has no problems walking haha you guys are funny.
Tore ACL in each knee. His legs/knee are fine just was never going to be able to survive the NFL nor get a look with that resume.

I'm pretty sure I read that every play from scrimmage in 2003 when he won the Heisman was from the shotgun.
If true, wow.

and was a finalist the next year. Of course, he had AD running for 2k yards, which helps

Yep. By that point his knees were so bad, they were afraid he wouldn't be able to execute the 7 step drop over the long haul.
I'm serious

This didn't stop Tebow from getting drafted.

Not even one. fricking. play?
And people were concerned that Cam Newton wasn't going to be able to get used to playing under center just because he didn't do it in college not because he physically couldn't.
