Matt Cassel would love to be great and it just doesn't matter. Tim Tebow is an exceptional leader and would probably be one of those guys that cuts off a digit if it made him a better player. Doesn't matter - still sucks. What makes Wilson this good is his talent and decisionmaking. He was judged on his size rather than his talent, that is true. His downfield arm and especially his intermediate accuracy was questioned because he wasn't a big passer. Your descriptions are just worthless flowery prose designed to cover national pundits that couldn't bring themselves to admit that they just didn't look at the tape closely enough. All of this was available to see if you looked for it. Guys like Kiper (and myself) just hate to admit it.

How can you argue with me that the media scouts put way too much emphasis on measurables (size, weight, 40times, etc) when doing their rankings/mocks? After watching Glennon vs Geno film, I cannot understand WTF Kiper is thinking except that Glennon is a giraffe. |

casual fans crack me up
I had someone on Christmas tell me they thought Tebow would end up with KC because we really needed a QB Tebow is done. The Chiefs and Patriots exposed him as the fraud that he is...stack the box with 8 and NEVER play prevent and he can't play the position. This is why he stays on the bench in NY. He is done. He's a failed experiment with zero chance to ever be a successful or even an unsuccessful NFL QB. He'll never get another shot to be a starter. He's like a less elusive Colin Kaepernick who can't throw the football. I'm pretty sure if Kaepernick played at Florida instead of Tebow he would have been a top 5 pick and won 2 Heisman's and 3 National Titles. Tebow is the biggest fraud player of my lifetime...college and pros. The fame he received is 100% due to religion and playing the V card while splicing it with his "ultimate team player" nonsense. |

I'd take one Peyton Manning over a LB core that looked like LT, Ray Lewis, Brian Urlacher and Derrick Thomas.

we will see
the only way that happens is if the owner absolutely insists I think, in less than 3 years, unless he goes and takes his circus to Canada we're going to forget ALL ABOUT Tim Tebow and I eagerly await biggest fraud famous athlete ever had no business even being drafted |

Come on. What's not to like? He's completed 57.7% of his passes--primarily against ACC competition--this year. Trust Kiper; Glennon cannot fail in the NFL.
Seriously, though, as one of the few ACC homers on the board, I'd be pissed off if we pick him. |

Tebow isn't going to get a shot because teammates don't respect his play...not one bit. He isn't good. He won't develop any talent around him. He's a gadget and he's not really all that great at the gadget he provides.
The dude has one chance in the NFL...and that is to change positions and hope he can learn on the fly. LB, FB, H-Back...maybe. QB? No. Will never work. |

I've always had a lot of respect for your football takes, but this is horseshit. In the sense of "is he a QB" you're absolutely correct... but the guy IS football player and IS a player who is respected in the lockerroom (outside of dumbass NY) - he absolutely IS a real player, he's just at the wrong position. I've said it before and i'll say it again, he'd make a HELLUVA tight end, h-back, wildcard type player for the pats... a coach who believes in him and is imaginative enough to find spots for him would get an EXCELLENT ball player in return. |

The crow-eating wouldn't be about taking the risk. I agree he's the only choice that makes any sense or gives any indication that this team is serious. It would be about Geno himself. If he flames out, there's gonna be a lot of people (myself included) who will look back at some posts hailing him as an incredible talent and cringe a little bit.

If Tebow wants to have a career playing at this level, he needs to give up the dream of QB.
