(espn; Adelson)[/URL][/B] [I][URL='http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/530308/jameis-winston']Jameis Winston[/URL] is set to become the No. 1 overall draft pick, but the quarterback group he leaves behind in the ACC does not lack star quality. [URL='http://espn.go.com/blog/acc/post/_/id/80514/quarterback-should-be-strength-across-acc']Ten starters return[/URL], making the group heavy on experience. Five rank among the Top 25 players at any position this spring, making the group deeper than a year ago.

So it is easy to see why 2015 is setting up nicely to be the Year of the Quarterback in the ACC. No surprise, especially when you consider recent history. The ACC seems to go in three-year cycles when it comes to its quarterback breadth and depth. In 2012, the ACC had one 4,000-yard passer and six 3,000-yard passers, including Tajh Boyd, EJ Manuel and Mike Glennon. All three players ended up getting drafted -- Manuel went in the first round. Rewind three years before that, and the ACC had standouts Christian Ponder, Russell Wilson, Kyle Parker, Tyrod Taylor and Josh Nesbitt. Since 2005, the ACC has had 13 quarterbacks drafted, including three in the first round. Winston is poised to become the fourth. Why this has gone in three-year cycles is more coincidental than anything. The stage has been set for a quarterback revival this year because the ACC was extremely young at quarterback last year: Ten schools were forced to replace starters. ...[/I] [/QUOTE]
