Collin Klein

Klein was a lightly-recruited quarterback out of Colorado and redshirted his first season in Manhattan. He moved to wide receiver as a freshman in 2009 (two starts) and recorded six catches for 38 yards and one touchdown. Klein moved back to quarterback as a sophomore and started two games before taking over as the full-time starter in 2011. He started all 13 games and helped lead the team to 10 wins, recording 40 total touchdowns and 3,059 yards of total offense. He led the Big 12 in rushes in 2011 season with 317, finishing with 67 more carries than the No. 2 rusher in the conference. Klein was still a bit under the radar when he exploded onto the national scene in 2012, a season that was capped by being one of three finalists for the Heisman trophy. He led the Wildcats to their third conference championship in school history, and the first since 2003. Klein rushed for 920 rushing yards and 23 touchdowns in 2012, second in school history to his 27 scores in 2011. He also completed 197 of 304 passes for 2,641 yards and 16 touchdowns and finished with the second-best completion percentage in school history at 64.8. If you combined Tim Tebow and Ryan Tannehill, the result might be something similar to Klein, a former wide receiver who is basically a tailback in the Wildcat's zone-read offense. Serious questions remain about his delivery, accuracy and ability to anticipate receivers uncovering. Klein's ability as a passer isn't NFL quality right now, but he is the type of player who puts his teammates on his back and wills his team to victory. While extremely doubtful that he will be a first round pick like the aforementioned Tebow and Tannehill, Klein will have a pro future in some capacity.
