There have been other QBs who were unheralded as pure passers in college and who found success in NFL.
DG could switch positions - makes the most sense to play WR (like Julian Edelman or Antwan Randle-El) - he's played it before, and he is tall and rangy. Is he "cocky" enough to play that position? While not everyone who plays WR is the same, most of the top NFLers do not lack in self-confidence.
He could try to compete as a QB - here he has to be great physical shape and do great at the combine and look good at any post-season games - he has to convince people that the shellacking he took junior and senior years doesn't reflect his true capabilities.
I wish him the very best, because if he does become a success in the NFL you know he'd be a regular coming back to Ann Arbor and talking up the place.

This board may have made Funchess into 2014's goat for "not playing hard", but a guy who played 4 games at the position isn't better than him.

Funch - My wild guess is 3rd round. I don't expect that much from him in the pros. Very average at best.
DG - Sorry guys - I love the kid to, but he has 0 percent as QB.
I would love to have a GM sign him to the practice squad as a WR. He would out work and out smart and out lead every WR on the team. If he gets a shot he has a chance. He won't be a superstar, but remember NFL = Not for long.
