Re: "As a QB I wouldn't draft Tebow in the first four rounds"
This should be common knowledge. Probably at least 4 QB's in the SEC alone I would take over Tebow.
Legendary college player, but is a backup QB at best in the NFL.
If JaMarcus Russell can start for a team though I guess anyone can.

This and
Garrard
Russell
Young
Hill
Romo
Jackson
Tebow is already better than all of them. He is smart and that is what the difference is between a good QB in the NFL and a great QB.
Tebow reminds me of McNair. Tough and could make all the easy pass plays just that, easy! This guy will be better as he is as smart as they come.
He just might become the best NFL QB in a few short years.
Remember where you heard this first!

Re: "As a QB I wouldn't draft Tebow in the first four rounds"
I know 1 thing
Tebow would never throw away a possible touchdown pass on 3rd down at the end of the game just because he got scared (see: Rivers, sunday 4th q seconds left) and he would never throw the ball away like a girl (for an interception) because he got scared (see: Rivers 3rd q 7 or 8 minutes left)
The more I see Rivers the more I realize this guy is the luckiest QB in the NFL. The Charger offense is a monster and it has NOTHING to do with Rivers. He never get pressure and when he does he throws the ball away like a girl (I know you all see it) He has 1 of the best offensive lines and great RB's and WR's and of course his BABY BLANKET TE Gates.
I really believe that any NFL QB would like great just like Rivers does because they all have great throwing arms. Every one of them.
Rivers does not even get into my top 20 QB's in the NFL and is lucky to be on the Chargers. Big time.

Re: "As a QB I wouldn't draft Tebow in the first four rounds"
all im saying is he SHOULDN'T be drafted pretty much at all as a QB. same thing i said about jamarcus russell. the guy went 1st overall but wasn't even a top 10 QB from that draft class.
oh i definitely think he goes first two rounds, probably even first round to some team. jags i think would draft him 1st round if he's there.

Re: "As a QB I wouldn't draft Tebow in the first four rounds"
I agree with you on Tebow, but disagree with you on Rivers...
I think Rivers will be considered the top QB in the league by many in the near future..
I also like Tebow to be a 1st rd pick (Jax) and have an illustrious career. Especially with the fascination with the wildcat. They can design a spread type of offense around him.
Tebow, Vick, Pat White and those like them are keys to innovation in the NFL. Vick has had mixed success, but let's remember, he has HAD success. Tebow could be the "white-vick"

Re: "As a QB I wouldn't draft Tebow in the first four rounds"
I don't usually like to call guys out, but saying the Chargers have one of the best OL's in the NFL is one of the most idiotic things I've ever seen posted here. Have you even watched the Chargers play this year? The RAIDERS blew up the chargers line, and that was with Hardwick and Vasquez playing.
Rivers is easily one of the top 10 QB's in the NFL. He plays behind one of the WORST OL's in the NFL, with by far the WORSE RT in the NFL. Gates has gone down hill steadily the past 2 years, LT is done. Sproles is a scat back. Other than VJ and Nanee, the chargers receivers are clubhanded. Chambers dropped two passes right in the numbers last week, that ass monkee from LSU who was a 1st round selection isn't even good enough to be active.

I agree with this...changed the course of that game. 10 yards away from going up 23...you know Urban would have went for the cover at that point.

(AP) </TD><TD width=15> </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>The Broncos' first-round draft pick, and latter day Friar Tuck lookalike (we'll assume that, unless you live in a cave, you caught a glimpse of the hazing-induced coif that has since been clipped), completed 8 of 13 passes for 105 yards, no touchdowns, no interceptions, and a passer rating of 87.0 against Cincinnati. He also rushed twice for 10 yards, including a 7-yard touchdown run.
Hardly gaudy numbers, to be sure, but still better than most of the dozen other rookie passers who played their first game in the first week of the exhibition schedule. Another rookie, Dallas free agent Matt Nichols, actually made his NFL bow a week earlier, in the Hall of Fame game.
Consider this: Tebow's eight completions might not sound like much, but they tied for the most by a rookie quarterback in Week 1. And he would have had a ninth, for roughly 40 yards, had second-year wide receiver Matthew Willis held on to a well-lobbed deep ball. Among the rookies with at least 10 attempts, Tebow's 87.0 rating was the best, nearly 30 points better than the combined passer rating (57.7) compiled by all the NFL's rookies, who threw only two aggregate touchdown passes versus the group's five interceptions.
Among all rookie quarterbacks, only John Skelton (Arizona) and Joe Webb (Minnesota), managed better quarterback ratings, at 158.3 and 122.9, respectively. But the pair, while playing well (Skelton had a "perfect" passer rating), combined for only 12 attempts and 25 snaps.
While he conceded to being rattled at times, Tebow demonstrated the kind of calm that made veterans pay attention. Noted rookie offensive lineman Zane Beadles: "He was in control of the huddle."
Notable was that Tebow, who unofficially played four series and 18 snaps, didn't take a single play from the "Wild Horse" formation, the Broncos' variation of the Wildcat, and a set most feel Denver coaches will utilize during the season. Instead, last weekend, the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner may have demonstrated that he might be helpful in '10 as more than just a gimmick guy, even if that still figures to be part of his repertoire.
"Some of the stuff he does (in practice) ... it can't be simulated," head coach Josh McDaniels said. Another member of the Denver staff said Monday night that spread-type formations, which have become increasingly popular in the league, will be part of what Tebow offers the offense, and insisted there has been no decision yet on whether the former Gators star will be active on game day.
There remains "some possibility" the Denver assistant coach said, that Tebow will be listed as the No. 2 quarterback for games. That would mean another former first-rounder, Brady Quinn, who was acquired from Cleveland in the offseason and who struggled last week, could be the No. 3, or inactive "emergency" quarterback for games.
