The other part of this is that there is MORE opportunity for nearly every other position than QB.
There is only one starting QB in the NFL.
Guys get better with experience and a QB doesn't get on the field unless he is the best QB on the roster.
A WR gets on the field as the fourth best WR. A linebacker can get playing time on special teams and situational defense. An OT, may move to guard.
The third or fourth corner would get time on the field. The third or fourth safety can get time on the field.
That is why, to ME, experience in college is a very important piece of the QB picture. Mainly, it will be very tough for that QB to overcome a lack of experience in the NFL.
Because it is very hard to get a QB experience when he gets to the NFL if he isn't ready.
