2009 NFL Draft Top QB Prospects

1. Matthew Stafford- Georgia (6'3", 230 lbs.)
Posses elite arm strength and had exceptional production in his collegiate career. Has a solid, quick release. His accuracy and decision making looks questionable occasionally though. Give him a few years to develop and you have a franchise quarterback.

2. Mark Sanchez- USC (6'3", 225 lbs.)
Has decent arm strength and has excellent short range accuracy. Has the passion for the game and all of the intangibles you look for in a quarterback. Only has 16 collegiate starts. Has a slow release to make up for his average arm strength.

3. Josh Freeman- Kansas State (6'6", 250 lbs.)
Possess an enormous frame and elite arm strength. Has surprising athleticism when scrambling too. Inconsistent play in college will label him a boom or bust type player though.

4. Nate Davis- Ball State (6'2", 217 lbs.)
The MAC quarterback had amazing production in college, but in a spread offense. Has outstanding arm strength. Will need to work on certain technical aspects of his game, such as learning how to play in a pro style offense. Stock has taken a huge hit since the end of the season due to terrible games late in the season and a learning disability he has which was recently revealed.

5. Stephen Mcgee- Texas A&M (6'3", 225 lbs.)
Highly effective option quarterback whom many project will be an effective NFL quarterback if he improves his mechanics. Has average arm strength, above average accuracy, and exceptional scrambling ability. Only had three starts his senior year due to a shoulder injury.

6. Rhett Bomar- Sam Houston State (6'2", 220 lbs.)
The final quarterback in this year's class with elite arm strength. Had an outstanding freshman year at Oklahoma before being kicked out and transferring to Sam Houston State. Had only adequate production at the Southland Conference school though. Needs to improve accuracy and decision making. Character is highly questionable.

7. Brian Hoyer- Michigan State (6'2", 215 lbs.)
Has an elite release and above average accuracy. Only average arm strength. Had a very productive junior year but struggled his senior year after losing WR Devin Thomas.

8. John Parker Wilson- Alabama (6'1", 215 lbs.)
Had elite production at Alabama as their all time passing yards leader. Has above average accuracy and an average release but lacks arm strength. He surprised a lot of scouts at his pro day though in his deep throws though. His lack of ideal size is also concerning. Will be best suited in a west-coast system.

9. Tom Brandstater- Fresno State (6'5", 220 lbs.)
Had great production at Fresno State and has a massive frame. Has average arm strength and accuracy. With a few years to develop his mechanics and to add a few pounds to his frame, he could surprise a lot of critics.

10. Curtis Painter- Purdue (6'3", 225 lbs.)
At one point was an elite prospect but has seriously disappointed scouts with his decision making and lack of pocket presence when getting blitzed his junior and senior year. Needs to improve his mechanics and release. Had exceptional production at Purdue though and has good arm strength. Is a project who could eventually develop into an NFL quarterback, but currently has the odds stacked against him.
