Collage degree indicates:

Ability to learn and have a expert understanding in a particular field. The ability to adopt, adapt, alter, synthesize, and improve a concept.

And every position on a football team needs men who have these traits. All the talent in the world wont keep a guy in the NFL is he’s an idiot. Peyton Manning wasnt the best athlete when he was taken number one. About 50% of everyone thought Ryan Leaf was a better talent.
