2008 NFL Draft Rankings- QB's

Regardless of how the rest of the NFL season unfolds, the full-time NFL fan knows their is plenty to still look forward to as the list of underclassmen entering the Draft has been finalized, as of January 15, officially marking the start of the NFL "draft-season".
To kick off the "draft-season" I will first introduce my pre-Senior Bowl/ Pre- Combine rankings and perspective on the top Quarterback prospects for the 2008 draft....

QB RANKINGS:

1. Matt Ryan 6'5 220 Boston College: 2007 stats- 4,507yds. 31td's 19int's 21scks; 2006- 2,942yds 15td's 10int's 19scks

2. Brian Brohm 6'3 225 Louisville: 2007 stats- 4,024yds 30td's 12int's 24scks; 2006- 3,049yds 16td's 5int's 16scks

3. Joe Flacco- 6'6 230 Delaware: 2007 stats- 4,263yds 23tds 5ints 25scks; 2006- 2,783yrds 18tds 10ints 23scks

4. Andre Woodson 6'4 220 Kentucky: 2007 stats- 3,709yds 40tds 11ints 36scks; 2006- 3,515yds 31tds 7ints 38scks

5. Chad Henne- 6'2 225 Michigan: 2007 stats- 1,938yds 17tds 9ints 16scks; 2006- 2508yds 22tds 8ints 24scks

In my first post of the QB rankings I just want to give you a snapshot of the QB's I consider to be the top 6. This does not mean that I believe these will be the first 6 QB's drafted and in that exact order. For instance, I like Flacco better than Woodson for many reasons, but I also think that, if the draft were today, Woodson would be drafted ahead of Flacco. However, to me, I believe these are the top 6 QB's who will go on to have the most successful careers in the NFL- regardless of where they are drafted.

Coming up in my next post.... I will outline my top 6 QB's strengths and weaknesses, and why I ranked one ahead of the other, as well as compare them to a current QB in the NFL....
