Best Draft evar! Prisco: Broncos' McDaniels can kiss job goodbye with Tebow pick.
Best first night of the draft EVAR!!!!
http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/s...ith-tebow-pick Broncos' McDaniels can kiss job goodbye with Tebow pick April 22, 2010 By Pete Prisco CBSSports.com Senior Writer Tell Pete your opinion! Denver Broncos coach Josh McDaniels should enjoy the next year or two in Denver. Really. Soak all of it in. Enjoy being a head coach. Enjoy making all the decisions. Your days are numbered. When you trade away Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall and Tony Scheffler, the key components in the Broncos passing game in a year span, and then draft Tim Tebow in the first round of the draft, you are sending a loud message. Talent doesn't matter. Character does. Why not pick the altar boys from the parish down the street? Aren't they good kids? Or maybe you can pick all the "A" students in this draft? It doesn't matter if they can play. Just make sure they are good "yes men." It just doesn't make any sense. I understand a coach wanting to have good character guys, but this is going past that. Tebow is a fifth-round talent. First round? Nobody in their right mind would ever say that Tebow plays the position better than Cutler. But Cutler was shipped out for being a bad boy. Now they have Saint Timmy to fix things. Here's a bet: He doesn't even beat out Brady Quinn. He makes Quinn and Kyle Orton, the other quarterback, look like John Elway. Tebow is raw. He doesn't understand the passing game. He doesn't read defenses. Oh, but he's a good kid. At least he'll save the locker room. Really? If you aren't playing, character doesn't matter. The NFL is a cruel business. His rah-rah crap doesn't matter. They won't listen. They won't stand for it. Crying after losses? Yeah, right. Does he work hard? Yes. Does he want to be good? Yes. But the skills aren't there. He isn't close to being as good as Jimmy Clausen. Too bad for Jimmy he doesn't have the character Tebow has, at least that's what they say. The Broncos reached big time for Tebow. But look at the bright side: At least he won't be running the streets. He also won't be starting anytime soon -- if ever. And Josh McDaniels will lose his job in a year or two over this one and his other moves over the past year. For more from Pete Prisco, check him out on Twitter: @PriscoCBS |

Boy I hope he's wrong about that. I'd like to see McDaniels coaching that team in 2025 at this point.

I hear he is the greatest pick ever. And tomorrow Denver could yet make further picks that defy logic but still so great. The guy named after a mediocre picks says so.

We'll see. I agree that if McKid doesn't win soon he is out of the NotForLong.

I said last week that McDaniels had completely destroyed that team after the Marshall trade.
I was wrong. Now he's completely destroyed it. Trade Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall, Tony Sheffler Receive two 1sts, two seconds, a third, and a fifth. Those picks are turned into (along with the two picks from 2010 and 2009) Robert Ayers Knowshon Moreno Alphonso Smith Tim Tebow Demaryius Thomas Seth Olsen and you gave away another 3rd and a 4th in the Tebow deal. But you still have a 2011 2nd and a 2010 5th.

Ironic that Tebow is going to a team whose past two drafts have been absolute abortions

There is a fine line.
DV concentrated on character and turned a piss poor offense into the talk of the league. He also did it with hand-me-down players everyone else had given up on. Amazing. That same attitude allowed his defense to suck arse. Consistently. It takes all kinds. A mix, but just the right mix, to make a winner. It's a volatile stew...
