This was an interesting question that I read another forum.
Has an NFL quarterback ever had success, or even been drafted, that had fewer than 300 passing attempts in their division one career? Adding JUCO, FCS, DII etc. attempts doesn't count, FBS career only.
The only one that I or anyone else could come up with was Matt Cassel, who would be the obvious one... outside of that, I couldn't find one.
I believe the closest would be Mike Vick with a little over 330. Rhett Bomar had a little over 300 before transferring, and Matt Flynn had just over 400.
This would make Cam Newton the least experienced passer out of college outside of Cassel. Newton has only 290 pass attempts at the D1 level.
