The only truly elite passers in the league right now are Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, so I'd agree that Campbell will probably never reach that level, but I think you're selling him a bit short by saying he'll only be average. His only glaring issue at the moment is his short to intermediate accuracy, which can improve with experience. He already has above average poise and a cannon arm. I think he'll be a very good quarterback in time; along the same lines as Carson Palmer or Ben Roethlisberger.

And as far as Romo, he'll never be in the elite class either. I think he'll be good, but if recent history is any kind of hint of the future, he looks like a choker in big games, like McNabb.
