Jim Plunkett, Danny Wuerffel and Gino Toretta

Plunkett had a good career and was the winning QB in a super bowl. Wuerffel and Toretta, great college players both, never had the arm strength for the NFL and never amounted to much as pros. But Plunkett was a solid NFL player.

Didn't win the Heisman.

Should have - was the most valuable player to his team in the nation his junior year.

I am going to have to agree. This kid has a bunch of talented quality young receivers and he could do nothing with them. Harrington in my opinion is a bust!!!!!

  Who are these talented WR?  Roy Williams?  Ok,  Charles Rogers? He missed his first 2 years with injuries & year 3 had a suspension in it.. Mike Williams was a rookie last year who had not played football in almost 2 years.

Also remember it usually takes WR 3 years before they are up to NFL speed.

So while Detriot has drafted 3 WR in the top ten the last few years.  Only Roy Williams looks to be worthy, while Mike Williams is still just getting up to speed.  Rogers looks to pretty much be a bust. 

By the way,  he could some day end up in Miami since he played for Saban at Michigan St.

[Dphins4me]

The Heiman is a kiss of death to a QB usually. There have been QBs that won, much less got votes, who turned out to be NFL bums.

Just because a player is a great college QB, does not mean his game is worthy of the NFL.   

College ball & Pro are different.  You will never a QB run the option in the NFL, however in college they do it all the time.  Couch & Frazier were great college QBs.
