I saw Nick Montana play in person. He was freshman for the Washington Huskies, playing at Stanford in 2011. He had a chance to run a couple of drives late, and showed a strong arm. After transferring a couple of times, he ended up at Tulane in New Orleans. He did have one good year in 2013, where he led the Green Wave to a 7-5 regular season record, while throwing for 1,722 yards, 14 touchdowns and 10 interceptions, and a narrow 24-21 loss in the 2013 New Orleans Bowl.
Pro football doesn't have a farm-system, and even great players who were very unheralded at one time, like Kurt Warner, had to try to hang on by playing in the Arena Football League, the CFL, or one of the smaller semi-pro leagues which have sprung up in recent years. I don't know if he's willing to go that route if he isn't signed by an NFL team. He's still a bit of a raw talent. Even Joe Montana and Tom Brady were down on the depth chart even in college at one point, and weren't high draft picks.
