50 top college quarterbacks that did not pan out in the NFL.

Alex Smith and Michael Vick on the list is a joke. They may have fallen short of overall expectations but they still have had a lot of success.
Watching KC choking instead beating PIT tonight could have helped Alex Smith's resume as a good or elite QB.
No doubt Killer Vick had loads of talent but when you make a list I guess you can have your own parameters. Personally I think he's an ahole.

Well, OK, but that is different than "is he a good football player".
OJ was a great football player, one of the best ever. Armed robbery now has him in prison. (not to mention suspected in the double murder)

You would be better off showin a slide show of college QBs that were actually good in the NFL

Wow almost a trick question like maybe some Canadian that went into the CFL route to the NFL or some ancient Canton Bullgog or other headstrong QB.Do you know of any good NFL QB that did not play college football?
Unlike the MLB, golf, tennis, maybe soccer and of course the tough one NFL you don't get ANY LeBron or Kobe types jumping from high school directly to the NFL....even Freshman Mo Clarett got screwed out of his opportunity to play pro ball after winning the NC for the BUCKEYES.
He could play but got smashed by the NFL machine that did NOT want their FREE minor league system disrupted. Pretty much guarantees that route is closed.

My point was that every good pro football QB also played college football.....so, ergo, in response to a post above, it would be superfluous to list every good Pro QB that played college football because that would include every single one.

And every bad even terrible NFL QB also played NCAA football. The only differential there might be "most" good or great QBs probably played for a P5 conference or other better school and the forgettable ones from lesser schools.
Of all positions in football the QB might be the hardest to predict greatness or unmitigated flops.
To contrast that a 6' 6" 320 lb. tackle from for example the B1G or SEC who has any accreditation at all will probably make it in the big time.

A lot of good QBs have come out of "smaller" schools. A lot of bad QBs have come out of bigger schools. Not sure it is fair to generalize.

Sure.

Maybe, but there are some flops there as well: read: Cam Erving.

After looking this list over again maybe 50 sounds better than 48 or 45?
.....and Vick is still an ahole, penalty points for him. So is that two faced OJ.

How about this: of the several high draft pick QBs of the last few years....how many of them could join the list of 50 biggest bust QBs? Or how many already have?
Actually....I think I will take this over to the main board and start a thread on it.

How about this..... How many QB's that are in the "College Football Hall of Fame" are in the PRO FOTTBALL HALL OF FAME?

Do you know? Is this Trivia? Or are you just inquiring?
Provide the list of the QBs that are in the College Football HOF and we can match them up.
(or...better yet, do the research.....you asked the question, so you are responsible for providing the answer....if it is not a trivia question. But, remember, when you ask a trivia question, you must know the answer)
