Who were some of the greatest QB's you ever saw, who changed positions in college or pros?

I can think of a few! Heisman Trophy recipient Charlie Ward never PLAYED pro football! But was a long time NBA player! Great high school passer, Ray Goff, went to UGA, only to win the SEC Offensive Player of the Year, as a RUNNING QB! Packers All American running QB Jack Montgomery, went to Georgia, and played DB! All American high school QB and UGA running QB Andy Johnson, went on to be a star RB for the Boston Patriots! Anquan Bolding was a great prep QB, but went on to college and pros to play another position.

Goff better player than coach.

Andy Johnson was a journeyman running back, not a star.

Hs averaged 253 yards per season over his 8 year career.

Nice guy, but no star.

I once watched a kid who committed to play QB at USC as a 7th grader only to play the Texas gauntlet while playing HS for ECA and then play ED later that year.
 

A couple years later while I’m in Morgantown he is playing WR for WVU.

walks onto the NFL with the Bills and gets cut but spends 2 years with Giants on IR😩
