I thought this article was interesting.
Bill Parcells is famous in NFL Draft circles for his formula, as it were, for drafting quarterbacks. Per the Parcells criteria, quarterbacks must be senior college graduates with three years of starting experience and at least 23 wins.
I think a big factor is intellegints. The athleticism and arm strength sure are important but I think the smarter QB's are able to develop and become effective regardless of system. I think of guys like Fitzy, Ryan, Tebow, Brady and Hasslebeck. When being scouted a lot people had issues with these guys... but they all have a mind for the position and have been able to fit in regardless of the circumstances.
At this point I would sacrifice raw talent for a guy who has a brain for football. Whoever that may be in this years class.
