Arch Manning is easily the most overhyped QB of all time. But somthing still tells me some GM is gonna take him in the first round and two seasons later get fired because of it
Yeah, Tebow was one of the best college players of all time regardless of how his pro career turned out (And his pro career wasn't as much of a flop as the Terrell Pryor/Johnny Manziel's of the world)
Tebow was amazing in college but there have been plenty of QBs that were awesome in college that couldn’t play at an NFL level. Another Florida QB, Danny Wuerffel, comes to mind.
Heisman finalist Gator QB Kyle Trask, who across 12 games in 2020 accrued just under 4300 yards passing (68.9% completions) and 43 TDs against 8 INTs (180.0 rating), with only the 96th ranked rushing attack to pull the pressure off the passing game, has thrown 4 regular season passes since joining the NFL in 2021 :/
I still really wish he'd gotten a real shot to play at that level, though. He's never been a practice warrior. He was a 2* backup all throughout high school and never started. His high school coach said that Trask was an incredible talent, but their other QB (D'Eriq King) was a better fit for their offense. Then McElwain and Nuss took a chance on him and brought him to Florida with no other p5 offers. He was a backup at Florida who looked mediocre in limited playing time until Feleipe Franks got hurt, Trask unexpectedly got thrown into the starting role, and he became amazing. He's the type of guy who doesn't really show out in practice but thrives under the lights.
He wasn’t the starter on one of the natty’s. Chris Leak was the senior starter in 2006. Tebow was a goal line gimmick QB his freshman year. Tebow contributed but they don’t win the title that year without Leak.
