Here's a news flash: while some college versions of the spread may make it difficult to evaluate quarterback prospects, a modified version of it is also becoming the preferred pro-style offense, more and more with each passing season.
Key there is modified version of it. They're still making pro-style reads. Lining up in the shotgun with 4 WRs doesn't limit the reads in an NFL offense.
Georgia runs a ton of that stuff, but it's nothing remotely like what Baylor, Oregon, etc. run.

Looks like we found the players they should be drafting then.

Agree that it is a modified version, but the title of op is Spread Systems do a huge disservice.
Spread or modified elements are pervasive now as you said.
As far as you said about the reads, the article I cited indicates the successful qb's with only a single read have to be ready to run with the ball quickly. I am not sure how this would work out in the NFL --- maybe the kid from Oregon would be a good indicator.
