Thomas Johnson "John" Reaves was an American college and professional football player who was a quarterback for eleven seasons in the National Football League and three seasons in the United States Football League during the 1970s and 1980s. Reaves played college football for the University of Florida, and earned All-American honors.Wikipedia

The move that should have been made in 2010 when it was immediately obvious he was too stupid to play QB.

Not sure I agree with you.
I can't ignore the horrendous coaching he received at UF and I wonder what if he had Mullen's tutelage.
If he was stupid he would never have lasted this long in the NFL.

Good point. Is Driskel dumber than Franks.
Easily. Driskel still panics and looks at the line as soon as the ball is snapped. It's the kind of thing that an average QB breaks in middle school.

It's why he was good for 4-6 turnovers in any game that mattered even at directional Louisiana and how he managed to do the unthinkable, lose twice to the Browns.

Only 6 of them were actually on NFL rosters, FWIW.

According to NFL.com 10 seasons were on a roster (3 seasons lost to injury but on the roster) and 3 on practice squad (not on the opening day roster).
