And, I suspect you're joking about (a) Keenum having a better college career and (b) that this automatically translates into what they'll be at the next level, so I won't bother.
However, here's an interesting thought experiment. Do you think we could get a top 5 pick for Keenum? The question answers itself, doesn't it? Whoever did that would get crushed. That is the trade you're essentially asking the next coach to make.

Undrafted guy better than a 1st round pick? Yeah, like that never happens in the NFL... (Hi Arian)
Statistically, Keenum had a better college career than all those guys. That's. Just. Reality. He was Heisman candidate.... He went undrafted because he was too small by NFL standards and got injured and sucked at the combine... Doesn't mean he's not a baller...
Please join me in watching Keenum for the rest of the year where we may better determine if he's got what it takes.....
Then, perhaps then we can discuss the merits of each of these can't-miss 1st round franchise QB's.....
