WHAT A SUPRISE 3 QB’S WHO PLAYED WELL IN THE COLLEGE GAME, BUT YET FAILED IN THE PRO’S. THIS IS BEGINING TO HAPPEN EVERY YEAR. IF YOU LOOK VERY FEW BIG TIME COLLEGE QB’S ARE GREAT IN THE NFL. IT’S JUST HARD FOR ALOT OF THESE PLAYERS TO ADAPT THE SPEED OF THE NFL. BUT DRE CAN ALWAYS COME BACK AND SELL INSURANCE OR WORK AT A BANK.
