Tebow or McCoy?

We should keep JC through 2011 and draft Mallet or Keenum from Houston since we have a nice down the field system in the works with Kyle.
that's what I'm talking about Ryan Mallett should be who we are targeting next year, and build the line this year..

I'm not sure we could draft someone that the board will be 100% behind. Every player seems to have their share of supporters and doubters.

Agreed. And being a Florida alum and HUGE fan, I obviously have my Tebow biases. I do have my doubts about him though. I've maintained all along that he needs to sit for at least one season, probably two before he's ready to play pro ball.

As someone mentioned earlier in this thread, Tebow is less of a risk than a guy like McCoy because of his athleticism. He's big, fast, very strong, and has a 38 inch vertical. Even if he doesn't work out at QB, he can still be a good HB, special teamer, and wildcat player. If any of the other top QB prospects bust, they are destined to be nothing more than a clipboard holder, or out of the league all together.

Neither! Colt McCoy won't have an impact till atleast 2012 (I would say much later) and Tim Tebow will not fall to us. I just read something online saying that the Saints were considering Tebow with their low 1st. That makes sense seeing they have no QB worries for the next few years so why not?

Tebow even does wedding engagements, the guy has talent!

F*****k bastard. And to think I was just on a Jimmy Clausen kick.

I think Okung or Suh would be close to 100% in approval. But after that, someone is always going to hate the pick.

I'd be happy with either; however the "problem" with Okung is that we could probably get a tackle 90% as good 10-20 picks later in the draft. if Suh were on the board, i'd be pretty pissed if we did anything other than drafting him or trading down, since we would have plenty of offers.

One of the most knowledgeable comments I've seen on this board regarding Tebow, McCoy and Bradford. I have to disagree about Clausen. The defenses that ND had while he was there were horrible, they could never stop anyone, it was pathetic. In my opinion, I think he is the most NFL ready QB coming out this year, without a doubt. If he gets picked up by a team that has some talent (Redskins), he will do very well.


That part about Clausen wasn't supposed to be a knock against him per say, but he did have more talent than most of the guys I mentioned after him like Lefevour or Kafka, but like you say the ND defense sucked eggs. My thing is Clausen would be in the same category as the others since he played teams on the same talent level as ND. I think the guys that played on average teams that played opponents of similar or superior talent levels should be really looked at. They could probably handle parity better or even inferiority. The Shuler/Frerotte comparison was the best example I could think of.

You want Tebow you can have him. He is a project at best.


lets not forget the thread title. tebow or mccoy. i'm not sure tebow is anyones first choice at qb.

But at the same time he could be as high as second. Most likely third on the list of teams that like him. It's just that some teams won't take Clausen till the second and that isn't likely to happen.
