Is RG3 the second best QB prospect since Peyton Manning?

Andrew Luck is universally believed to be the best QB prospect since Peyton Manning, and will be the #1 pick in the 2012 NFL draft.

Thirty five quarterbacks have been drafted in the first round since Peyton Manning was selected with the first pick in the 1998 draft.
