Dolphins are working on a deal to trade for Deshaun Watson. Tua isn’t a starting level NFL QB right now. Herbert was obviously the better player but they botched the pick and are already trying to correct it.
Melt

USC had Leinard, Cassell and Booty all together. Here’s a weird one, Florida had Driskel, Brissett and 2 other NFL players who played QB in college but are now TEs in the NFL, Jordan Reed and Trey Burton.

I'll allow it.

1982 Miami had Jim Kelly, Vinny Testeverde, and Bernie Kosar. That's gonna be tough room for anyone to beat

Ooh that’s a great group. Didn’t FSU have 3 at one point in the 90s too?

And Mark Richt, who went on to have a better first 5 years at UGA as a head coach than Kirby Smart.

Almost. They had Brad Johnson and Charlie Ward in 1991 and then Charlie Ward and Danny Kannell in 1992 and 1993, though Ward chose the NBA route instead of the NFL so I guess they wouldn't technically count regardless

But didn’t Johnson play with Weldon and Willis too? All 3 were NFL QBs I think.

He played one year at Oklahoma, graduated from Alabama, and still reps Alabama to this day. He's BAMA. See the link I posted above.
He would have never made it if Riley hadn't taken him under his wings. Saban clearly has no idea what he is doing with QB's considering what he put Tua through. Poor kid's body probably won't make it a full year in the NFL after the science experiments the Bama doctors did on him.

Looks they they all three played together in 1989. Weldon was a journeyman backup, off and on, for a long time, and Willis' NFL career was also very short-lived.

Ok, wasn’t 100% sure but I think I have a Willis rookie card with him being drafted by the Bears. I knew Weldon had made a roster or 2.

Every bit of this post is blind homerism and/or complete bullshite.
Jalen became a real QB in 2018 while working with Alabama coaches, and proved it every time he came into the game including leading Alabama to a comeback win versus UGA in the SECCG. Go frick yourself, Sooner. Your shitty conference had propped you up for the last decade, and that's about to all go away.

Don't melt just because it took Riley teaching Jalen how to play the position properly to get him drafted.

sorry, all we have is one heisman winning quarterback that is starting. By the way, he is on a team with one of the worst offensive lines known to mankind.

It took Jalen an opportunity to start again for an entire season to get drafted. And honestly, he probably still gets drafted if he rode the bench another year at Alabama, albeit maybe not as high as he did. He didn't look noticeably different as a QB at Oklahoma than he did at Alabama. He did, however, get to play in a much weaker league with weaker defenses so his stats certainly looked better passing the ball.

Impressive. All three lost to 2019 LSU - best team ever.

It's just embarrassing to try and say Oklahoma isnt QBU.
We can both claim Hurts or hell you can even have him and take credit for his obvious development under Riley but the other 2 were back to back Heismans and number #1 draft pics and both are premier NFL starters. It's not close.
