    As someone who attended FSU 2000-2004, this was a no-brainer for me. It was obviously Weinke.
    The NCAA changed some of its eligibility rules because of him because he actually played pro baseball BEFORE playing college football, and so dominated as a college QB because he was essentially already a professional athlete.

    Sad thing is, Weinke's 1-15 season was the Panther's worst record, but e was NOT the worse QB to start at Carolina. THAT would be the anemic Jimmy Clausen.

    The oldest player ever drafted in any round in NFL history was almost 37 year old George Plimpton. He had participated in the Lions' 1963 training camp which he described in the classic sports participation book Paper Lion. He had ingratiated himself among the players, staff and administration of the Lions to the extent that they asked him to man their phone at the 1965 draft in New York. The very end of the book describes how at the end of the arduous 29 hour process they called him and told him that their final (20th round) pick was George Plimpton! But when their time actually came they drafted someone else (the Lions head coach's son George Wilson Jr actually)
