    Who gets Tim Tebow in tonight's NFL Draft?

    Tonight at 7:30 EST the NFL Draft starts.

    My sister is a UF graduate. Her son will graduate next weekend from UF. Lots of Gator fans in my family and it's going to be tough watching Tim Tebow, one of the greatest college football players of all time possibly go in the second or third round.

    So who do you think will be the #1 pick and when will Tebow go.

        He is one of the best college players ever, if not THE best. The problem is that his style doesnt translate well to the NFL. The NFL wants big, strong, non running QBs that can throw well between the LBs and the secondary and that's just not his game. He still throws a bit to side arm (even though he's been working like crazy on it for months)

        That being said his work ethic is second to none......he'll go somewhere between 16-30 based on that. IMHO

              too many qb's recently have come from spread offenses like UF that haven't been able to make the adjustment into the league. i.e. Alex Smith, Vince Young, Jamarcus Russell to name a few of the most recent. Heck even 15-20 years ago it didnt work either i.e. Andre Ware, David Klinger, Tim Couch. You have to be a pocket passer first at that level, a good guy/kid who will have to work hard to make it

                i'm a lifelong suffering Bills fan - if they take Tebow in the first round i'll burn One Bills Drive down. I don't want him in the second round either really but it would at least make the misery of being a Bills fan interesting the next couple of seasons seeing if Tebow has any chance of being a successful NFL QB. The vast majority of experts think he has little chance of it.

                i want Colt McCoy with the 9th pick.

                  Giving up on Trent Edwards already? As far as best college player ever I would give it to Barry Sanders...

                  "In 1988, in what has been called the greatest season in college football history,[1] Sanders led the nation by averaging 7.6 yards per carry and over 200 yards per game, including rushing for over 300 yards in four games. He set college football season records with 2,628 yards rushing, 3,249 total yards, 234 points, 39 touchdowns, of which 37 were rushing (also a record), 5 consecutive 200 yard games, scored at least 2 touchdowns in 11 consecutive games, and 9 times he scored at least 3 touchdowns. Sanders also ran for 222 yards and scored 5 touchdowns in his three quarters of action in the Holiday Bowl - a game that was not included with his season statistics"

                    Teebow is going very, very late in the draft. And to say he is one of the greatest college football players of all time is ludicrous.

                      Im not bagging on Tebow, but the qb rating is a decent barometer to use in comparing him to others. Vick, and Colt Brennan both had seasons of higher rating than him and look where they are now

                        giving up on Trent Edwards already? He was absolutely brutal and getting worse week by week as he lost more confidence. They don't call him Captain Checkdown for nothing, he's afraid to throw the ball further than 10 yards. He was a third round pick and has started almost 2 seasons worth of games - that's enough.

                        sadly this is the highlight of the last 10 years of being a Bills fan

                            I like Tebow, and rooting for him to have a successful NFL career. No way in hell he will drop to the 3rd round. Early 2nd round at the latest. If anything he will bring some instant exposure and fans to the seats.

                            Colt McCoy with the 9th overall pick? YIKES! Nothing wrong with McCoy, but burning 9th overall on him? That would be a terrible mistake, you could EASILY trade down and catch him late in the first, if not early second.

                            I keep hearing talk about my Vikings interested in Tebow with the 30th, I guess wouldn't be too upset over it, but I would like to see a DB come instead. Even though Vikings could sure use some more publicity to help with the stadium push. Either way, I am VERY excited for this draft to start and getting closer to NFL season!

                            Side note - Does anyone collect sports cards these days? Been addicted to the hobby the last 3 months, after not really even looking at a sports card since I was about 12. The cards they make these days are really fucking cool. Autographed cards and game used jersey cards, I suggest checking some out if you were into it as a kid.

                            Here is a 2010 Golden Tate autographed card I pulled the other day, only 9 made with the "Go Irish" inscription:

                              I'm not a hater. I'm just repeating what "experts" are saying about him:

                              1) He is a headcase

                              2) He didn't throw at the combine

                              3) He can't make NFL throws.

                              4) I can think of about 7 or 8 guys I'd rather have as a rookie backup


                              I'm not saying he can't be successful, but Tebow is a 3-4 year project at best. A third rounder I would say.

                                I won't argue his NFL prospects.

                                I took offense to your comment about me calling Tebow one of the greatest COLLEGE players of all time ludicrous.

                                  Well it was a bit of an overstatement.
                                  There have been hundreds of great college players and Tebow is not one of them.

                                    Tebow will go by the end of the 2nd round but then again Coach Belichick doesn't know shit either I suppose eh!

                                    And it's not because I am a die hard Gator fan as I never thought Danny Wuerffel was all that.

                                          1. Tebow is arguably the greatest college player of all time. He's one of the greatest without any argument. He has the stats, the hardware and the intangibles to prove it. Any statement to the contrary is misguided by ignorance, hate, or a desire to be contrarian.

                                          2. While he may not be suited to the NFL directly out of college he's the one guy in that circumstance that I'd take a risk on. His work ethic and will to succeed are amazing.

                                          I've been hearing that the Bills and Vikings are interested. I hope for Tebow's sake he winds up in Minnesota over Buffalo. Ick.

                                          As for the Vikings needing publicity for a stadium push...well you'll grab some headlines as soon as the yearly "Will He or Won't He" Brett Favre drama begins.

                                          I don't know that I'd take a QB in the first 5 picks of the draft. They're almost always a bust and you screw your team for years if you do that. Too many great QBs are drafted in later rounds.

                                            Tebow owns the highest career college QB Passing Efficiency of All-Time with 170.7879. As for individual seasons,

                                            In 2009, he was ranked #1 with a PE of 164.17
                                            In 2008, he was ranked #4 with a PE of 172.37
                                            In 2007, he was ranked #2 with a PE of 172.5
                                            In 2006, he wasn't ranked (did not meet minimum att/game), but had a PE of 201.73.

                                            Vick had a PE of 152.93 in his 2 years of playing. (Vick had a 179.189 PE in 1999, but threw 12.75 passes per game, which is below minimum att/game).
                                            Brennan had a PE 167.645 in his 3 years of playing.

                                            In fact, Tebow has higher season totals than Stafford, Sanchez, Russell, Ryan ever had. In fact, they compared the PE rating of Bradford and Tebow before the 2009 BCS Title game and it proved that Tebow has a higher completion percentage and PE rating than Sam Bradford on passes longer than 20 yards. And it wasn't a case of the sample size being too small either. I wish I could find it, but my ESPN membership expired.

                                            2) He didn't throw at the combine
                                            He threw at Florida's Pro Day.

I don't want him in the second round either really but it would at least make the misery of being a Bills fan interesting the next couple of seasons seeing if Tebow has any chance of being a successful NFL QB. The vast majority of experts think he has little chance of it.

                                            i want Colt McCoy with the 9th pick.
                                            Colt is crazy accurate, but he doesn't throw down field as well. There are comparisons to Drew Brees, but Brees holds the ball up much higher and has a much stronger arm. Also, the vast majority of scouts and executives are mixed. Kiper has Tebow in his new first round and both Mayock and Gruden think he's worth a 1st-round pick as well. Mayock thinks he can do very well in the league.

                                              Seems like there are quite a few other players that will fit with teams needs before Tebows name is called. And if he is going to need 3-4 years to become productive thats asking a lot of patience for a team and their fans to have. The guy is in a tough spot for sure.

                                                There have been hundreds of great college players and Tebow is not one of them.


                                                Just check this list: http://www.americasbestonline.net/cfootball100.htm
                                                I'm not a huge Tebow fan and the reason I started this thread was because I found it interesting that a person could have such an illustrious college football career and could possibly never play a single down in the pros.

                                                I looked at your list of 100

                                                Now go here and read up on Tebow's accomplishments and see how he's surpassed many on that list of 100. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Tebow


                                                When that list has Herschel Walker ( was great ) and not Tebow even though Tebow RAN for more touchdowns than Walker who was a RB and Tebow was a QB and the fact that tebow holds the SEC record for career touchdowns, the list lost credibility at least in my eyes.

                                                  I hope Steelers trade Big Ben and pick up Tebow. The's one of the only franchises that has proven to do well with a rookie QB.

                                                      He won't last past the second round.....I personally think he'll go in the first. I'm not really a fan, and I don't think he's the best QB prospect, but the guy is a winner - period. Probably the face of a franchise (Jacksonville).

                                                        They just did a story in my sunday paper ( orlando ) about Tebow going to Jacksonville and how it would help sell tickets having the hometown hero on the team and what a great fit he would be.

                                                        The Jags position was that the best way to sell tickets is to have a winning team and as popular as Tebow is it wouldn't be in the best interest of the franchise to have him if he wasn't productive. They didn't say how hard they were going to go after him but they will continue their evaluation.

                                                        BTW they said that he will not be in NYC for the draft and will be watching it at home with his family in Jacksonville

                                                          As we've mentioned once or twice, quarterback Tim Tebow's habit of openly expressing his religious beliefs could potentially rub folks the wrong way, especially in a locker room of grown men who choose to keep their beliefs to themselves, who don't share his beliefs at all, and/or who only want to hear "God bless" after they have sneezed.

                                                          We're told that Tebow already has gotten a taste of the resistance he might face at the next level.

                                                          At the Scouting Combine, the Wonderlic exam is administered to players in groups. The 12-minute test is preceded by some brief instructions and comments from the person administering the test.

                                                          Per a league source, after the person administering the test to Tebow's group had finished, Tebow made a request that the players bow their heads in prayer before taking the 50-question exam.

                                                          Said one of the other players in response: "Shut the f--k up." Others players in the room then laughed.

                                                              There just isn't a such thing as power running quarterbacks in the NFL. That is Tebow's strength. If you have speed and elusiveness (Michael Vick) it would help. Ultimately you will have a short career if your thinking run before pass in the NFL.

                                                                As we've mentioned once or twice, quarterback Tim Tebow's habit of openly expressing his religious beliefs could potentially rub folks the wrong way, especially in a locker room of grown men who choose to keep their beliefs to themselves, who don't share his beliefs at all, and/or who only want to hear "God bless" after they have sneezed.

                                                                We're told that Tebow already has gotten a taste of the resistance he might face at the next level.

                                                                At the Scouting Combine, the Wonderlic exam is administered to players in groups. The 12-minute test is preceded by some brief instructions and comments from the person administering the test.

                                                                Per a league source, after the person administering the test to Tebow's group had finished, Tebow made a request that the players bow their heads in prayer before taking the 50-question exam.

                                                                Said one of the other players in response: "Shut the f--k up." Others players in the room then laughed.


                                                                .............................more

In fact I think a quarterback should have it in him to pass, but the very best have never been known for winning superbowls, at least passing wasn't their skill at the times except for completion percentage i.e. Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Bradshaw, Starbauch, Elway, etc,. they were all great passers in the clutch but they weren't yardage achievers or touchdown gainers except on certain specific years and they actually failed going all the way in those years.

                                                                            I see another Bledsoe in this Tebow guy and Bledsoe might have been a giant if things had gone his way. God knows he should have won that superbowl against Greenbay if Parcels hadn't been on the phone making a deal with the Jets.

There are comparisons to Drew Brees, but Brees holds the ball up much higher and has a much stronger arm. Also, the vast majority of scouts and executives are mixed. Kiper has Tebow in his new first round and both Mayock and Gruden think he's worth a 1st-round pick as well. Mayock thinks he can do very well in the league.
                                                                              All I heard was that McCoy's pro day was the best of all of all the QB's being talked about as first round picks. That he made every throw in the book.

                                                                              Everybody's an expert before the draft - it's laughable how badly some of these experts miss on players.

                                                                                      That's a great point

                                                                                        Excluding Young & Kosar,

                                                                                        The best multi-year Pro-Bowl QB's not selected in Round 1 have been:

                                                                                          P.S how many quarterbacks won Superbowls that weren't first round picks? I think that would be a better way of looking at things.

A lot of good QBs have been on really crappy teams. You can't fault the QB for not wining the superbowl because his supporting cast is wretched.

                                                                                                P.S how many quarterbacks won Superbowls that weren't first round picks? I think that would be a better way of looking at things.
