Thomas (the hero of our OT playoff win today) was our first pick in that draft. If you mean he was a reach as a first round pick, then yes, that's true. He went towards the bottom of the first round because McDaniels thought that at least one team was targeting him at the top of the second.
But one of Josh McDaniels' weaknesses as a Head Coach was that he locked on to specific players and went after them. He went after Tebow and Moreno because he wanted them, and he reached for both. Moreno never has had a strong impact on this team and he's heading into "bust" territory simply because he was reached for.
Tebow on the other hand...I think you'd have to be an idiot to think he can't get any better at this point. He started three games last year. He became the starter halfway through the fifth game this year. That's it. That's his NFL experience. He gets more credit than he deserves for the wins, and he gets more blame than he deserves for the losses. That comes with being the QB. No big deal. He can handle it, and we haven't seen anything yet.
