Ball State University quarterback Nate Davis fell behind another quarterback in the 2009 NFL Draft.
West Virginia University quarterback Pat White was selected in the second round of the Draft, with the 44th overall pick. Analysts have speculated that White could also play wide receiver in the NFL, a characteristic that has not been associated with Davis.
White was the fourth quarterback taken in the Draft. Matthew Stafford of the University of Georgia went first overall to the Detroit Lions, Mark Sanchez of the University of Southern California went to fifth overall to the New York Jets and Josh Freeman of Kansas State University went 17th overall to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
When Davis declared for the Draft in January, Scout.com analyst Chris Stueber said he was rated ahead of Freeman and White.
Davis will now have to contend with players such as Rhett Bomar of Sam Houston State University and Stephen McGee of Texas A&M University to be the next quarterback selected.
