Yeah its weird if he is a good "game manager" then what are your QB's not doing? They certainly aren't winning the games and championships that matter.

The question of the OP wasn't about best college QBs - it was draft value for NFL. Winning crystal - surrounded by top talent or not - doesn't equal great NFL QB nor high NFL draft pick. Compare the BCS winning QBs below who won games and championships that matter to their eventual NFL draft / playing success:

2000: Josh Heupel - Undrafted Non-Factor
2001: Ken Dorsey - 7th Round (241) Non-Factor
2002: Craig Krenzel - 5th Round (148) Non-Factor
2003: Matt Mauck - 7th Round (222) Non-Factor
2004: None
2005: Vince Young - 1st Round (3) Non-Factor
2006: Chris Leak - Undrafted Non-Factor
2007: Matt Flynn - 7th Round (209) Non-Factor
2008: Tim Tebow - 1st Round (25) Non-Factor
2009: Greg McElroy - 7th Round (208) Non-Factor
2010: Cam Newton - 1st Round (1) Starter
2011: A.J. McCarron - ??
2012: A.J. McCarron - ??

All winners of crystal. Few high NFL draft picks. Even fewer meaningful contributors in the NFL.
