Chris Simms

Not worth it as a backup quarterback.

Too much coverage for my backup quarterback.

Even Cam Newton, if he was going to come back and he was going to be a backup quarterback, Johnny Manziel, you've got to have a backup quarterback who you probably don't see very much, and that's a good thing.

If you're one of the McCown brothers and you're just there for 15 years, Chase Daniel, nice college career, you just want to make sure that guy is just there in case.

Colt McCoy.

Diego Pavia was a Heisman Trophy finalist.

He did not get drafted.

Now, there's a few reasons why.

He was very, very good in the SEC.

That should stand out, and that should make you draft eligible.

You should get drafted just based off what you did.

You did it for Vandy in the SEC.

You know, you can have personality at other positions.

It can be absorbed.

It can be embraced, but not a backup quarterback because quarterback is evaluated differently.

You can be an elite talent and get away with that.

A wide receiver, you can be an elite talent and get away with that, or a great defensive, you know, lineman, edge rusher.

The message from the NFL is really clear.

If you're not a can't-miss prospect, professionalism is not just valued.

It's required.
