The SEC sends a ridiculous amount of talent to the NFL at every position. But the one spot where the league has been strangely deficient is the glamour position, quarterback.

That’s only relative to the other positions, and the SEC has had six quarterbacks drafted No. 1 overall since 1998. But those QBs have represented a mixed bag of success and failure, and the glory has not been distributed evenly among SEC schools.

You might be surprised at how long certain SEC schools have been waiting to produce a starting NFL quarterback — for this story, the standard to be considered a starting quarterback is at least 10 starts in any season.

Here’s the most recent NFL starting quarterback at each school, with schools listed alphabetically.

Alabama: Richard Todd

College: 1973-75; NFL: 1976-85 (Jets, Saints).

Most recently started 10+ games: 1984.

Skinny: Yes, it has been that long. He ran about as much as he passed for the Crimson Tide, then went on to be an up-and-down quarterback on mostly pretty bad Jets teams.  He passed for 3,000 yards or more three times for New York, which drafted him No. 6 overall in 1976. Todd started 108 games, the final 14 for the New Orleans Saints in 1984. That gave him the edge over more successful Ken Stabler, who last started 10+ games in 1983 … also with the Saints.

Arkansas: Joe Ferguson

College: 1970-72; NFL: 1973-90 (Bills, Lions, Bucs, Colts).

Most recently started 10+ games: 1984.

Skinny: We’re not counting Tarvaris Jackson, who was briefly with the Razorbacks before transferring to Alabama State. Ferguson was a pretty good pro, leading the NFL in passing in 1977 (2,803 yards) and in touchdown passes (25) in 1975. Not the most famous/infamous member of the Bills’ 1970s backfield, mind you.

Auburn: Cam Newton

College: 2010; NFL: 2011-present (Panthers).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2017.

Skinny: The Heisman Trophy and national championship he earned in 2010 at Auburn might be the greatest QB season in SEC history. Newton has been the face of Carolina’s franchise from the moment he arrived as the No. 1 overall pick and led Carolina to Super Bowl 50, but the 2015 MVP has no rings yet.

Florida: Tim Tebow/Rex Grossman

Tebow college: 2006-09; NFL: 2010-12 (Broncos, Jets).

Grossman college: 2000-2002; NFL: 2003-12 (Bears, Texans, Redskins).

Most recently started 10+ games: Both in 2011.

Skinny: Again, we’re not counting Newton or Jacoby Brissett, who finished at N.C. State. Even among Florida’s three Heisman Trophy-winning quarterbacks, Tebow’s legacy in Gainesville is special. His brief moment of NFL glory came when he led Denver over Pittsburgh in a 2011 NFL playoff game. Tebow started 11 games that season. Two years later he was out of the league.

Grossman started 47 career games, the final 13 in 2011 with the Washington Redskins. He led the Chicago Bears to Super Bowl XLI in February 2007, where they lost to Tennessee’s Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts.

Georgia: Matthew Stafford

College: 2006-08; NFL: 2009-present (Lions).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2017.

Skinny: Went 3-0 in bowls and led the Dawgs to a No. 2 final AP ranking in 2007 before Detroit took him No. 1 overall in the 2009 draft. Stafford has more than 36,000 yards passing on mostly mediocre Lions teams; the franchise has not won a playoff game since the 1991 season and he is 0-3 in the postseason.

Kentucky: Tim Couch

College: 1996-98; NFL: 1999-2003 (Browns).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2002.

Skinny: One of Kentucky’s best players ever and another No. 1 overall pick — but Couch had the misfortune of going to the Browns, in their expansion year following the original team’s departure to Baltimore. Cleveland’s merry-go-round at quarterback since returning to the league began with Couch’s 59 starts. In retrospect, his 22-37 record doesn’t look bad at all for that team.

LSU: JaMarcus Russell

College: 2004-06; NFL: 2007-09 (Raiders).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2008.

Skinny: LSU has produced some quality NFL QBs — from Y.A. Tittle to Bert Jones. Russell was not one of them. He was the biggest No. 1 overall draft bust in NFL history. Russell completed 67.8 percent of his passes for 3,129 yards in his final year at LSU but declined dramatically with the Oakland Raiders. His 2009 debacle — 3 TDs, 11 INTs, 48.8 completion percentage — was so bad that he never got another chance.

Mississippi State: Dak Prescott

College: 2012-15; NFL: 2016-present (Cowboys).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2017.

Skinny: Led the Bulldogs to heights the faithful in Starkville could only have dreamed of before, including MSU’s first AP No. 1 ranking for four weeks in 2014. Prescott had a tremendous debut in Dallas, winning Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2016, but he and the team have been up and down since.

Missouri: Blaine Gabbert

College: 2008-10; NFL: 2011-present (Jaguars, 49ers, Cardinals, Titans).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2012.

Skinny: Gabbert was at Mizzou before the Tigers joined the SEC. He passed for more than 3,000 yards in a season twice, then declared early for the 2011 NFL Draft. Let’s just say pro glory has been slow in coming. Gabbert went 5-22 as the starter over three seasons in Jacksonville and has bounced around as a backup since; he’s now with Tennessee.

Ole Miss: Eli Manning

College: 2000-03; NFL: 2004-present (Giants).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2017.

Skinny: Like his brother, Peyton, Eli also was a No. 1 overall pick. Manning escaped father Archie’s long shadow in Oxford, carving his own legacy. He has done even more as a pro, winning two Super Bowls and becoming way more than just Peyton’s little brother. On the wane now but has more than 53,000 career passing yards.

South Carolina: Bill Troup

College: 1972; NFL: 1974-80 (Colts, Packers).

Most recently started 10+ games: 1978.

Skinny: According to pro-football-reference, just 4 South Carolina QBs have played in the NFL. Even hardcore Gamecocks fans might not remember Troup, who only started a handful of games in Columbia after transferring from Virginia. Troup, who died in 2013, was an NFL journeyman who started 11 games for the 1978 Colts, making him the only South Carolina QB to qualify for this list:

Tennessee: Peyton Manning

College: 1994-97; NFL: 1998-2015 (Colts, Broncos).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2014.

Skinny: Another No. 1 overall pick, and one of the game’s all-time greats. The league’s only 5-time MVP owns NFL records for passing touchdowns (539) and total offense (70,654 yards), and held the mark for passing yards until Drew Brees broke it last week. A 2-time Super Bowl winner, Manning’s Hall of Fame bust awaits in Canton.

Texas A&M: Ryan Tannehill

College: 2008-11; NFL: 2012-18 (Dolphins).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2016 (injured in 2017).

Skinny: Tannehill starred at A&M before the Aggies joined the SEC. Miami has never been good enough with Tannehill to challenge the elite, and never bad enough to draft another quarterback to replace him. So it seems fitting that he’s 40-42 as a starter. He got hit a lot in his first four seasons — he took a league-high 58 sacks in 2013. Played some at receiver at A&M.

Vanderbilt: Jay Cutler

College: 2002-05; NFL: 2006-17 (Broncos, Bears, Dolphins).

Most recently started 10+ games: 2017.

Skinny: Cutler twice led the league in interceptions and made one playoff appearance, with the 2010 Bears. He passed for at least 3,000 yards in a season seven times but never joined the upper echelon of NFL signal-callers, which might have been expected for a No. 11 overall pick. Still he started 153 games in his career, including the final 14 last season. That means Vandy has produced an NFL starting quarterback more recently than 8 other SEC programs (not including A&M, which technically dates to 2016 because of Tannehill’s injury that forced him to miss all of 2017 — and led to the Dolphins signing Cutler.)
