Tom Lemming's look at the Top 25 Combo Passers in the Class of 2011.
Versatility is at a premium in college football, as offenses are becoming faster and more multi-dimensional by the minute. Consequently, "combo passers," who have the ability to take over games with both their arms and their legs, are highly coveted.
These 25 players represent the best of that breed, and they have the potential to leave an unmistakable mark on their future programs. Braxton Miller, a Buckeye-to-be from Wayne High in Ohio, tops the list.
