Young QB in the NFL
I heard someone (Schefter maybe?) talking about the number of young QB in the NFL these days and it got me to thinking where Skins fans think JC ranks in the fray.. There's been so much rush to crucify Campbell and 'he should know better by now' sentiment, I wonder if his peers bear that out.
So using the criteria of being drafted in the 1st 3 rounds (and other notables) of the past 4 years, where does JC fall in the hierarchy? 2005- 1st Round: Alex Smith-Backup SF Aaron Rogers-Starter GB Jason Campbell-Starter Washington 3rd Round: Charlie Frye-Backup Seattle Andrew Walter-Backup (?) Oakland David Greene-Out of the league Other Notables: Kyle Orton (5th round)-Starter Chicago Derek Anderson (6th round by Balt.)-Starter Cleveland Matt Cassel (6th round)-Starter NE 2006- 1st Round: Vince Young-Starter TN Matt Leinart-Backup Arizona Jay Cutler-Starter Denver 2nd Round: Kellen Clemens-Backup NYJ Tavares Jackson-Starter Minn 3rd Round: Charlie Whitehurst-Backup SD Brodie Croyle-Starter KC 2007- 1st Round: Jamarcus Russell-Starter Oakland Brady Quinn-Backup Cleveland 2nd Round: John Beck-Backup Miami Drew Stanton-Backup Detroit 3rd Round: Trent Edwards-Starter Buffalo Other notables: Troy Smith (5th round)-Backup Baltimore 2008- 1st round only 1st Round: Matt Ryan-Starter Atlanta Joe Flacco-Starter Baltimore So of all of Campbell's peers (12 starters-12 backups or out of the league) I can only identify 2 QB-Cutler and Anderson, that I would prefer over Campbell. Is there anyone else from this list that you think is better than Campbell at this point in their careers?
