• Snapshots from training camp

JaMarcus Russell, Oakland/Round one (No. 1 pick): Russell missed all of the 2007 preseason in a contract holdout and it showed, as he wasn't ready to start until the season's final game. Russell should make significant strides this season, especially with running back Darren McFadden and wide receiver Javon Walker now in the offensive mix.

Brady Quinn, Cleveland/Round one (22): If not for the unexpected emergence of Derek Anderson in 2007, Quinn would probably be starting by now. Instead, he's mired as Anderson's backup for at least the 2008 campaign.

Kevin Kolb, Philadelphia/Round two (36): The Eagles remain committed to Donovan McNabb for at least another season, but Kolb is making progress by passing A.J. Feeley on Philadelphia's depth chart.

John Beck, Miami/Round two (40): Beck's four NFL starts last season were the second-highest total among rookie quarterbacks, but his future is now dim. Beck has fallen so far out of favor with Miami's new coaching staff that he probably won't make the team's regular-season roster.

Drew Stanton, Detroit/Round two (43): Stanton (knee) spent his entire rookie season on injured reserve. He is competing with Dan Orlovsky for the backup spot behind starter Jon Kitna.

Trent Edwards, Buffalo/Round three (92): Edwards is proving the biggest steal of his draft class. He showed so much promise in his seven starts last season that the Bills are keeping Edwards in that spot ahead of 2004 first-round pick J.P. Losman.

Jeff Rowe, Cincinnati/Round 5 (151): Rowe is competing with fellow 2007 draft choice Jordan Palmer for a roster spot as Cincinnati's third-string quarterback.

Troy Smith, Baltimore/Round 5 (174): One of college football's top quarterbacks in 2006, Smith's draft stock plummeted following a rough end to his senior year. Smith has rebounded and may beat out Kyle Boller as Baltimore's starter entering the season, although 2008 first-round pick Joe Flacco is still considered the team's quarterback of the future.

Jordan Palmer, Washington/Round 6 (205): Palmer didn't stick with the Redskins, but he now has the chance to make the same roster as his older brother Carson in Cincinnati.

Tyler Thigpen, Minnesota/Round 7 (217): The Vikings may ultimately regret having cut Thigpen at the end of the 2007 preseason. Thigpen was claimed off waivers by Kansas City, where he is competing with veteran Damon Huard for a backup role behind Brodie Croyle.
