Probably plus, much more if they wanted to. I run across these threads on Bama boards sometimes.

Bama's D couldn't stop Ole Miss. The NFL would destroy them like they do 99% of their players drafted.

There is a history of college all star vs NFL teams
LINK
college all stars won 9 times in that time period with the last win coming in 1963. So the College All stars lost more than they won, and the nfl champion had a 13 year run(12 game winning streak), and they quit playing.
All of this happened before my time, but it seems to me that the NFL game was always better, but made this game a complete no contest in the early 60's and there is no way any modern college team wouldn't get blown off the field by any NFL team.

The Chicago Charities College All-Star Game was a preseason American football game played annually (except in 1974) from 1934 to 1976 between the National Football League champions and a team of star college seniors from the previous year. It was also known as the College All-Star Football Classic.[1] After the AFL-NFL Championship was introduced, including for the two seasons before the "Super Bowl" designation was officially adopted and the remaining two seasons before the NFL/AFL merger, the Super Bowl winner was the professional team involved, regardless of which league the team represented. Thus, the New York Jets played in the 1969 edition, although still an AFL team. The second game in 1935 involved the hometown Chicago Bears, runner-up in 1934, instead of the defending champion New York Giants.

If OP means the SCHEME, then... no idea. Not sure how well it would work in transition.
If OP means the players, as they are now, transitioned onto an NFL squad... NO. There's a couple who will likely start next year on an NFL defense, but even that includes a full off season of training, learning, etc.
If you're saying that all 11 starters will eventually be on an NFL 2-deep somewhere, and THEN put them together as a defense and see how they work out... maybe. While not often, sometimes a backup is better than the person in front of them, and sometimes the backup is better than the starter at a lot of other places.
