Tim Tebow is a Denver Bronco.

Arguably the greatest player in college football history was drafted by the Broncos with the 25th overall selection in the 2010 NFL Draft.

The Broncos traded 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round draft picks to move back into the first round and select Tebow. They earlier selected WR Demaryius Thomas with the 22nd overall pick.

After a year of trades that saw Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall, Peyton Hillis, and Tony Scheffler exported elsewhere, the Broncos’ offense has a youthful, long-term direction again. Will the picks pay dividends? Did the Broncos, despite trading down from 11th overall, reach for these players?

Broncos fans, we want to hear from you! Be sure to take our poll in the sidebar or after the jump. Your thoughts in the comments.

How many games will the Denver Broncos win in 2011?

    questionable impact on the field but great locker room guy immediately. I like it.

  • Georgia_Dawg

    wasted first round pick….

  • inrodwetrust

    If he is better than Alphonzo Smith we on our on way up. TT to DT for a TD!

  • guest

    thomas not a reach. tebow is

  • markydenver

    I am getting rid of my season tickets because of tebows religious views, guy sucks and is a watse of a first round pick

  • herc_rock

    Hey, it's Bradlee Van Pelt with a shitty arm!! Great!!

  • herc_rock

    Good. Move me up on the list. It won't be like this forever.

  • Seahorse

    Can I have them? I'm pro choice, cause apparently that really matters a whole lot to you.

  • Jack

    The Broncos landed Tim Tebow with the 25th pick overall after trading with the Ravens. Denver also gets a fourth-round pick as part of the deal, in exchange for a second-round pick (No. 43), a third-round pick (No. 70) and a fourth-round pick (No. 114)

  • biseltech

    overall we have another year without the playoffs, there is no way tebow can give us the playoffs.

  • biseltech

    I will take them. Tebow won't play much next year

  • http://profiles.yahoo.com/u/COFOWCYPC56ESKGQQ4EQG2RPOI yahoo-COFOWCYPC56ESKGQQ4EQG2RPOI

    Tebow, Great move!! this year Orton will do well. But you all will be happy when Tebow will finally get out of the Elway shadow!!
    Go Broncos!!

  • Ben

    you can give your Season Tickets to me MarkyMark, And I'll take Tebow's religious views over Cutlers mouth any day of the week, especially if the Kid can win (which he can).

    I know people are going to go Bananas about this pick, But I like it, We gave up very little to get either of these guys (considering we got most of the picks we gave up from moving back), And both of them are serious play makers that also have great locker room presence and Awesome Character to boot.

    I know marky, and kerry (oh how kerry will hate this :O) are flipping out, but I think there is potential here for some serious future playoff/Superbowl appearances.

    I know it would be ridiculous for me to tell you all to try and give the kid a chance (I have been on this site before, and it seems that many of you have a really hard time with that), but for now, at least lets not be bashing these guys before they ever even step on the field.

  • guest

    no, he doesnt flick off fans. he circumsizes them

  • guest

    honestly he wont be asked to. hes going to be a backup for at least a yr.

  • broncosrule789

    Who is the bigot now?

  • Tom9798

    Kyle . . . this was pretty much a sure thing . . . I commented on another blog that Tebow is the alter ego of McD . . . McD will live vicariously through Tebow . . . . even gave him D.Thomas to throw to . . . .

    McD is now drafting his team . . .

  • Jack

    +1000 love your comment
    PS I need season tix too send them up

  • Iwasfn47

    We'll see…We'll see. Nothing else we can do except wait until he starts a full season to judge, we can only speculate and I won't be negative until I have a reason to be. With Pouncey + Iupati off the board so be it for now.

  • steeplebomb

    Who knows what this means? How can you possibly classify this pick? Yes Mel Kiper doesn't like him. Yes his throwing motion is too long. There's more that makes a successful qb then just raw mechanics or form. If it were that easy then 1st round qbs wouldn't have the bust rate they do. And all those things you can't put on paper? Tebow has all of them in spades. Work ethic, leadership, maturity and responsibility. He's arguably the most successful college football player of all time. Anyone who is willing to check out on the broncos because of this doesn't realize that being a fan sometimes requires you to check your doubts at the door and just have faith.

  • Seahorse

    I had no idea there was a guy at #25 that can just give us a playoff berth… I gotta admit I'm disappointed we didn't go with the guy you are referring to. har.

  • Guest

    well said lets try some optimism for a change and quit hating on a team we're supposed to be rooting for

  • inrodwetrust

    thats what you call a shitty arm?
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsditoWmwNM

  • vmec

    good job by denver..excellent draft!!! made my day. in tebow we trust

  • Big_Pete

    Lots of busts and steals. To be a bust, you have to be a player that the “experts” and teams thought would be a stud. you are a player that people gave a grade of “A” when you picked the player. Then, the player turned into a bust.
    In order to have a steal, you need to draft a player that people scratched their heads at when you took them. You are taking a player that people don't really expect much out of, and yet, that player turns into a stud.
    Only time will tell if Tebow is a bust or a stud. Keiper didn't like him? Big deal, he liked Leaf and Akili Smith and Rick Mirer etc… He's one of the biggest idiots in all the land.

  • inrodwetrust

    This raises some questions, does this mean Clady gets moved to right tackle to compensate for the lefty's blind side? When do we get Chis Simms back to be his backup? Can Tebow play center?

  • guest

    is clady going to switch sides when tebow plays?

  • Big_Pete

    Clady is arguably the best LT in the league. However, Harris is one of the top RT in the league, so I wouldn't be too worried. Yes, Harris will get the best DE's on the opposition when Tebow is in, but I'm sure he's talented enough to handle that. Now all the counter or off tackle sweeps will run to the weak side, or Clady's side. This could help the run game. Clady is a monster. While he is known the best for pass blocking, he can run block with the best of them.

  • biseltech

    Your right Tebow shouldn't be asked to but McD should and his picks directly reflect what will get us to the playoffs. last year a big McD fan, slowly losing respect.

  • Andpark

    I think McD just bet his career on Tebow succeeding as a starting NFL QB.

  • FloridaGator

    are you scared of God or what Tebow might do for Denver

  • guest

    yup.

  • Craig

    I think you are right Andpark and I also think McD made a wise bet.

  • Iwasfn47

    A lot of other fans think he'll be good BECAUSE the Broncos drafted him. Don't underrate McD's ability to coach up a QB, its what got him here. And Andpark is spot on. McD just put his job on the line for Tebow, no doubt. Thats that. In 4 years he'll either have a hard time finding an OC job or he'll be a genius, time will tell.

  • biseltech

    I think getting rid of a pro bowl player, every selection has to geared to getting us to the playoffs.

  • Shawn Adair

    Broncos are a legitimate threat within 2 years. Best draft by Broncos since Elway. With 2 1st Rounders. D Thomas to replace B. Marshall, Tebow to replace Orton and/or Cutler (I think Orton sticks around but NotForLong!)

    I agree that McDaniel has bet his career on Tebow in we Trust! MileHighNation time for a new ERA of Bronco Ball!!! Bring it on and click those hooves!

    DieHardBronco fan Stuck in D.C.

  • Russ

    Appluading Ben very smart Tebow is a very smart qb im sorry to see the bashing already,it's a shame wanting to give your tickets up to me win or loose with what ever you got is not a true blue and orange supporter you have to win to love em give the guy a chance if he dont work out then you have the option to run your mouth marky…but to be scared of God and use that as a front to get rid of your tickets is a shame and a slap to bronco nation

  • kenmasta

    i'll take your tickets then

  • TheTroglodyte

    I really like Tebow and I think he is going to make a great qb “some” day. Really disappointed we grabbed a project though. Now that I have calmed down, I will reserve judgement until I see what McD can do to improve the O-line and D-Line though. Still short a LB too. My initial reaction is one of frustration. Would have much rather grabbed Dan Williams at that spot if we were going to trade up.

    I would like to see Orton get traded now as I simply don't see him leading us to the playoffs and feel Quinn is a better option.

    If nothing else, I guess we finally got a goal line back that can fix our goalline and short yardage situations right? Maybe some more “Wild Horses” in our future?

  • FloridaGator

    Well said steeplebomb ive seen Tebow 4 straight years as a season ticket holder i live in florida wish he would have made it here closer to hom but i see myself making the trip and now supporting the broncos myself i love my dolphins but Tebow is with a change go ask the over all # 1 pick in the draft did he win a National Championship in football he'll answer no because Tim Tebow beat him for it along with Mcoy also on the same team these are good traits Work ethic, leadership, maturity and responsibility enjoy him and support him he'll suprize you :)

  • cgabeyta7

    That might be one of the most ignorant comments I have come across on one of these comment pages. By the way Brian Dawkins has the very same religious views you are so uncomfortable with.

  • Ben

    You know it's funny, I remember when Elway came out in the draft, there were all these critics that said (of all things) that his throwing motion would give away his passes (he tapped the ball before he threw it, which was to slow :) I am not trying to say Tebow will be the next Elway I just think it is funny to hear people rag on this specific topic and say how a QB can't succeed in the NFL with a slower motion (or with a hitch as they call Tebow's quirk) seemed to work out OK for John…

  • Rob_Bronco

    There's no doubt that Tebow is a risk. But ALL the QBs in this draft were a risk. We all know that high powered teams are built on having a solid QB. That being said, Orton was signed to a one year tender (not a high powered QB). We traded for Quinn on a hail mary (not a high powered QB), and obviously Brandstater wasn't the answer. Look at these stats:

    Tebow Cutler
    Height 6'3″ 6'4″
    Weight 245 230
    Total Yds 9285 4917
    TDs 88 31
    Ints 16 14
    Cmplt % 67.8 59.1

    Cutler was a huge risk, and he flourished in Denver. Tebow can flourish as well. Strong offensive line. Incredibly talented YOUNG receivers, and a nearly 1,000 yard rusher in Moreno.

  • ocbronco

    Read this…. The guy has a shot to be great. Aren't 90% of 1st round qb's question marks anyway?

    http://www.coldhardfootballfacts.com/Articles/1…

  • beastrules0015

    that was really sweet of the broncos to make sure tebow's dads prediction was correct.I just can't get myself to believe it wasn't a waste of three picks that could have really helped this team.And the sad part about it is ,i'm not a tebow hater either, and i want to really beieve it was best for the broncos.

  • areferee

    Team Tebow…the line forms here…

  • Murph

    Once a Bronco fan—always a Bronco fan. Where does Brady Quinn fit into the scheme of things? Is there a trade in the air for either him or Tebow?? A lot of you are right about Coach McD being a goat or a hero after about 3 years.
    Go Broncos

  • bananahead

    Tebow's religious views aside my guess is that he isn't liar like you. I am calling you out right now. Provide proof that you have given up your season tickets or be forever known as a worthless, lying piece of garbage.

  • TheTroglodyte

    I wouldn't call Cutler's 2 year tenure of leading the NFL in redzone INT's, INT's inside your own 20, and the 16th highest scoring offense exactly flourishing, but you make a great point.

  • converted

    Life long Gator fan, very long Raider fan, who just converted!!! Yesirree!!! I am a Denver Bronco fan now! I am a football coach and have told colleagues of mine that Tebow will go first round. Ironically an offensive coordinator who played QB at an NAIA school told me I knew nothing about the position and that I was crazy. All I can say is HAHAHAHAHAHA!! He hasn't returned a text yet. Now I am not saying I will be a loyal Bronco fan. I am a Tebow fan. I will root for any team he plays for. Right now it's Denver. STEEPLEBOMB had most of it right, but the thing about his throwing motion…..he shortened it and it is fine now. I'd listen to Jon Gruden unless you are better than him recognizing talent when he sees it. We live close to Denver. If that knucklehead really wants to get rid of his season tickets let me know. He's a winner and he ALWAYS will be. Congrats to the diehard Bronco fans. I can't wait to find out his number and buy about 5 jerseys. GOOOOOOO BRONCOS!!!!
    I liked the comment of one Bronco fan saying, :lets be optimistic here and start rooting for the team we love” Nuf Said!!

  • B Rob

    Tebow was a terrible pick. He could have gotten a way hotter cheerleader for way less money. We need play makers not a qb who's stats are inflated by their teams system. Name the last good florida qb.

  • roscoe7

    Most ass.clown.pissfart.com pick i have ever seen…Shanahan is probably licking his lips right now to see us epically failing

  • http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2582236 Elway4Life

    Tebow had 21 TD passes, and 14 rushing TDs last year. In 2007 he had and incredible 32 passing TDs, and 23 rushing TDs. Not bad and definitely a good gamble I'd say! He'll sit the bench for a year or two. By then Demaryius Thomas will start to get good and be ready for Tebow. If one of our 1st rounders pains out, I'll be happy, and I think one of them will. Definitely a good gamble on both in my opinion.

  • guest

    really strong english. go gaytors.

  • ericinvegas

    We started the day with 1 1st, 2 2nd, 1 3rd, 1 4th, 1 5th, and 1 6th.

    We ended the day with 2 1st, 1 2nd, 2 3rd, 1 5th, and 1 6th.

    Obviously moved up and down the board a bunch, but essentially traded a 2nd and a 4th for a 1st and a 3rd. That's not too shabby.

  • Nisse

    if orton turns out to be the next joe montana(he did go in the 3ed round right?) then the tebow pick will be about how much we get for him if we trade.

    hopping orton prove this was a stupid pick, rather than tebow proving it.

    would be nice with a high rated qb, whoever it is.

    btw, orton, quinn and tebow. one of these qbs are going to become a pro bowl qb, im sure of that.

  • broncoNM

    I love the trades to move down and stockpile picks… then McD pulled this move.

    We have major holes that need to be filled… tebow was a luxury pick that we cant afford

  • isaac

    It had to be Mc dumass his the only one that could of made this pick how can u pass on clasen and Macoy and take tebow thats just stupid unless there going to use him as a FB and even then they could of still got tebow in the 2or 3 round..i do like thomas pick because when i saw him play i liked him alot more then bryant and he would be good replacement for marshall..but no playoff untill thay fired Mcdumbass

  • Iwasfn47

    In his career he had very similar stats to Peyton Manning. I'm not even going to attempt to insult Peyton with a comparison, just a little stat that shows he wasn't nearly as bad a passer as some make him out to be.

    Urban Meyers system is an inflating system though that requires a transition period- see: Smith, Alex. I actually think Tebow's better than Smith and Alex was the number 1 pick(and it was the year everyone said Matt Leinart shoulda left and been number 1, lolz). I expect an Orton or Quinn trade tomorrow, and for Tebow to compete for spot immediatly, McD can't afford to waste time unfortunately.

    Tebow's arm also isn't bad, and probably comparable to Brandstater's or even slightly better, it's his mechanics that are a mess. There's been some GREAT Qb's with horrible mechanics in the past btw…see: Tankerton, Fran. If he can continue to work on his new motion, as well as incorporate what McD has to offer shouldn't he be fine? Remember that Clausen chose Tebows skills over Clausen's, McCoy's, Pike's, etc. McDaniels comes from a place where they don't take QBs early, so he either is going against that or is in love with this kid. Given he's betting his job on it, I hope its the latter.

    Another thought, say we trade Orton for a pick next year, and let Tebow and Quinn battle it out in camp/preseason. Would that not be the most competitive QB competition for however many years we had the two ever to go down? You have Tebow who won over the media nation with his determination, leadership, and hard work, and you have Quinn who's a workout beast and is sure to be giving it his all over the next 3 years before his time runs out as a potential starter. With those two guys pushing eachother and setting the pace of camp and preseason you have to think it'll rub off on the rest of the team. Those two will be the most inshape players on the team possibly, which is kinda weird to say about QBs.

    Demaryius Thomas will be very similar to Vince Jackson I think btw, not quiet as monstrous as B-Marsh, but not as much of a headache and still a damn good player. I don't think he'll be much as a rookie though, he has a LOT to learn about route running, and part of why Eddie was so limited last year was because McD only let him run certain routes because he wasn't good enough at others in his eyes. DT could see the same thing early on but I fully expect him to develop into an above average to 1-2 time PB X wideout. He should fully be able to replace Marshall within 3 years, not production wise entirely, but better for the goal this team is seeking to accomplish.

    I have to say I've really liked the high character/hard worker stance Denver is taking. Old guys that have never won before love that attitude(see Dawkins) and we're only reaffirming that stance that McD has taken since day 1 without backing down from criticism. Today we added two more players that will help us reach that goal of becoming a TEAM. I'm sure most people here have seen “Miracle” or a doc about the 1980 US Hockey team. A team full of lower talent that wanted it more, and became a true team through work ethic, leadership, intelligence, etc. To all those saying we're giving up all our talent, I say maybe, maybe a little(thought thats pretty debatable), but its worth it if we can replace them with guys near there level and better attitudes/character/leadership/etc. I think we can say that we did that today with 2 positions whether you think who we took was the right pick or not, there's really no denying it.

  • guest

    i am a fan of the math behind the breakdown there. not a fan of the tebow pick. it's got a shot to work, but i dont like trading the pkg we gave to get him. had we taken williams it would have been better

  • Dr.Gonzo

    Not sold on Tebow just yet, but he seems to be a great guy and has the motivation to prove people wrong. That being said I was watching the Post -Draft coverage on NFLN and I concluded that Jaime Dukes is the biggest douche bag on the planet. Though many of you may have know this before I did.

  • RHINO67

    I'll tell you one thing if I had season tickets I would give them up just to slap the shit out of Jamie Dukes just once.

  • Nisse

    strange how people dont say you are entitled to your view of things when you say what you belive and stand for, when this is an argument you here alot when peoble critisise tebows views

  • Rob_Bronco

    Touche.

  • TheTroglodyte

    Yeah because he did SO much better in the 10 years after Elway retired lol.

  • millerclan02

    Yeah but from the way most our responding on this blog they're afraid of faith.

    Some say its being a homer, or too loyal. All these people that gripe everytime their team does anything are the guys running around with “descent is the greatest form of patriatism” bumper stickers on their Prius'.

    Fan is after all short for Fanatic, and if we are true fans of any team we are fans good and bad. People don't relize the reason Denver gets such a bad rap nationaly in the sports world is the infamous fair weather fans. The rockies don't sell out untill the last few weeks of the season if they're looking for the playoffs, the nuggets used to get 6000 fans untill Mello and company came to town and made them a contender. The AV's proved how far weather everyone around here is, when they made the playoffs every year the sold out every game, the last couple years they had to beg people to fill up The Can.

    Tebow will be a very good, if not GREAT football player. McD will put together plays and packages with Tebow. He'll play QB, he'll play TE, RB, FB. He may never be a starting, every down QB, but he will be a valuable asset that will get those 2 or 3 yards that the Broncos have struggled to get the last serveral years. Or maybe he'll pop it over the top to the Thomas on a fake draw cause the safties have to respect the run every time the ball is in his hands.

    And one more thought for those that want to pass off Tebow just because he has faith in Christ. Take the COEXSIST sticker off your Vespa and learn what those of us that put our eternal souls in the hands of the one and only true God actually believe.

  • Nisse

    what did he say?

  • Josh

    Im sure there was a player that would help us get to the playoffs instead of someone who is going to sit on the bench for a couple of seasons

  • http://broncotalk.net Kyle

    Well put, e

  • TheTroglodyte

    That is pretty amazing. I'm still a little frustrated that we didn't fill some glaring holes in round 1 but what the hell, if this guy turns out to be a hall of fame QB, then it is worth waiting 1 more year to see us start being a serious contender again. He can be plugged in right now in some short yardage situations anyway and contribute starting week 1.

  • Chris Peterson

    Tebow is perhaps the best college football player in some time. When I first saw him four years ago, I told my wife that he had “Elway like” qualities. Lets all give him a few years to grow, and maybe, just maybe… we'll wonder what the Hell we've been doing with Orton???!!! Really folks, doesn't matter what religion you are, doesn't matter what you think of UF, or the price of rice in China. This guy is a winner. All reports say his quarterback “makeover” during the winter has been fantastic. I for one have not been this excited over a draft pick since “The Chosen One” graced our presence. May his future be long and prosperous!!

  • Iwasfn47

    1 more thing. If we got Tebow in say…the 3rd round, how many people here would say it was a great pick, and be pointing out his strengths and potential? Just saying.

    I understand the value of the 1st, but at QB, if you think the guy's gonna be a good one why wait and let someone else have the chance to take him instead? Maybe McD regretted not getting Sanchez or something last year and wasn't gonna wait for Tebow to fall to us in the 2nd or 3rd.

  • Nisse

    I dont think tebow has in mind to coexist with anyone saying how much they dont belive in god.

    and dont get people started on being afraid of religiuse people.

    couse they are really dangeres.

    so everyone out there, be afraid, be very afraid…

  • Doom92

    Dude you cant tell Herc anything… He is a demi-god that knows everything there is to know about football, especially the NFL, just ask him…lmao…

  • Jarrod

    Really like this! Thomas is explosive, a little raw but coaching can bring him to a 1st round level for sure…a little worried about Tebow, especially in the first round, and considering we gave up quite a bit (2,3,4) in draft picks…that being said, he IS a winner, which is underrated. Winning can't be taught, throwing the ball right can. And remember we still have another 2nd rounder and two 3rds so we didnt mortgage our future on him…

  • Josh

    You want optimism, maybe this will cost McD his job

  • GO GATORS

    IT NOT A WASTE HE WILL BE THE BEST QB SINCE JOHN ELWAY. NOT THE SAME , BUT GOOD!!!!!! YOU GUYS WILL SEE. GIVE HIM A CHANCE.

  • Scottey

    T n T connection….I can just hear the AC/DC theme going through my head right now…….I love the pick!

  • Iwasfn47

    We have 3 picks in the 2nd and 3rd. Say we go OG, C, ILB in some fashion with say Walton and Spikes as two of those picks, you guys shut up about the needs and holes? NT and DE are luxury picks right now and Green/Williams(with Fields rotating)/Bannan has atleast 2-3 years, if we address some guys in next years draft at those spots its fine. The key to the draft is to fill needs at the right spots and take the talent when you see it, even if it doesn't fit in right away. Lets see how we play our next 3 picks, 3 guys whom could feasibly all contribute next year if we draft for need. There's still a lot of talent left at center and guard. Last year Duke Robinson(rumored to be a can't miss great guard) fell hard, and will still likely be a pretty good player in this league. Look at a draft from 5-6 years back and look at the 2nd round on since thats what we have left and see if you find as many gems as there were in the first.

  • Dr.Gonzo

    His typical Bronco bashing comments. Being sarcastic about how many games we've won over the past few seasons (the tone in which he said this) and how terrible our 1st round was due to the Tebow pick. I don't think it was all that bad and I hope TIMMAY! makes this prick eat crow in the near future. There's just something about Jaime Dukes that rubs me the wrong way. I officially jump on the Tebow bandwagon just to see Dukes' comments come back and bite em in the ass!

  • ct

    What does Tim Tebow bring to Denver?? The heart of a lion…incredible upside….a red zone threat like we have never had…impeccable character…what's not to love about that!!!

  • Doom92

    I'm stoked about this. I posted just the other day in another article that I didn't know when but I hoped we would get him and when moved back the second time figured that was going to happen and I'm stoked about it. In my post the other day I even said, you heard it here first…lol.

    Tebow will not start this or probably even next year but I think we are being set up to be an AFC contender in '12. This is the best move that I think McImmature has made yet and I'd bet right now with any one that Tim Tebow will be the guy that keeps McImmature here for the long term for sure. And I don't know which one of you said it, but you were right, He bet his career on it!!!

    As I have posted a number of times I don't care a whole bunch for McImmature but… I'm buying this one…

  • millerclan02

    Religious people can be dangerous. Don't mistake religous people with people that have faith and a relationship with God. Religous is following traditions. Catholics are religous, true belivers that have faith in Christ are not. Tim Tebow, and most of us are not dangerous.

    Do people us “God told me to do it” on ocasion, yes but most of us want to love our nieghbor, not shoot the local abortionist. Go talk to a local pastor that actually teaches the bible, and yes there are those that never open a bible in the pulpit, don't talk to them, and see what they have to say rather then judging the largest religion in the world based a few psycopaths that use God as an excuse.

  • Chris Peterson

    Like I was politely trying to say, winners are born… even if they are home schooled!! Okay, I know it, I shouldn't be saying it here, 'cause it's a sports blog and all, but here goes… Obama would not appreciate this pick!!! Have at it boys -n- girls!!

  • Wino

    you’re a douche

    We would've gotten him in the 3rd! Bills were trying like crazy to move back in the 1st to get him! So he wouldve been a Bill or a Bronco picked in the 1st round!

  • Doom92

    WTF??? Am I the only one that seriously missed that?

  • Ack

    We got a guy with no arm and drops his shoulder to get through defenders. Sounds like success in the NFL. Look at the video of whoever posted the youtube with all his TD's. Not one pass was on a line. Everything has too much air underneath. He's just not a pro QB.

    And for idiots saying Elway was criticized when he came in to the league: you're insane. Elway had minor issues. Tebow struggled take snaps from center in Januray! He's learned a new motion that has never been tested in a game.

    a republican man is not dangeres either by himself, but republicans as a group have proven that they are, and a republic office in the whitehouse was dangeres as well. as a group they get dangeres.

    and tim tebow is dangeres, in the way he effects people in the wrong way, such as making it popular to be “pro-life”, and thinking homosexuality can be cured and that homosexuality is something wrong.

    and now you will probobly say its his freedom of speach to say what i want.

    and im using mine, and im saying religion is dangeres.

  • Nisse

    but he has some upside, and there are worse guys in the league.

    and like someone said before, dawkins has the same Religious belives, and i enjoy watching him play alot.

    probobly wont buy his jersey though.

  • hotrod

    McDaniels is nuts. He'll be gone in a year or two.

  • bankmeister

    Who is this Tebow character? I thought he played Lacrosse. Nice pick, Doog.

  • Ackjugglesfuntlersballs

    You're the only retard in the world that thinks tebow has a weak arm…I hope you die choking on the sack of the bag of dicks you inhaled while typing this garbage. If you hate Tebow, it's not because of arm strength.

    Also to say Tebow struggled taking snaps while winning a 2 national championships and a heisman along the way, just is pure irrational.

  • Floridagator

    i thought the jaguars fans sucked.but wow bronco fans atleast a 3rd of the bronco nation is really sucking bad.get over it whether you like it or not you got Tebow.the jaguars will fold in jacksonville before McD get's fired.Jacksonville fans are outraged that the jags didn't take a home town boy they think there ticket sales were bad last year they havn't seen anything yet every game but 1 was blacked out last year due to non ticket sales,if you dont like Tebow you will he is a WINNNER.something Sam Bradford cant claim.

  • hatethegators

    i am most disturbed that the jort wearing trailer trash of alachua county just jumped on the bronco bandwagon. they're easy to spot, they dont have many teeth, wear wal mart danny warful jerseys and knock off gold chains.

  • herc_rock

    He threw some TD's in college? Wow. So did David Klingler.

  • herc_rock

    Not everything…just more than the people that think Tim Tebow is a viable NFL QB.

  • Bucky

    Good, we don't need fans like you. Give your tickets to someone who will appreciate them.

  • Big_Pete

    I might be moving to DC cause wife works for government. If that happens, we're catching a few games on TV, and if you are ever in Denver, I have season tickets, and we'll tailgate (told wife I'm going back to Denver for most Broncos games)

  • 1129jeff

    i doubt anybody as stupid as you, has season tickets.

  • Gambling addiction

    Hello Rick Mirer, good arm but won't use it, I think that his instinct is to run, run, run when the pocket gets tight.
    Mcwonder coach might be able to retrain him in time to save his job but, he certainly is “all in” ingnoring needs at o-line, d-line and jumping up and down the draft board for no apparent reason other than to benefit the Patriots.

  • Doom92

    LOL… fare enough. We will see, of course, if he is or not. But will you admit you are wrong and eat your crow like a man? Only since you know more than half of the NFL and its analysts, certainly more than McImmature (given your stand of course). If he sinks of course I would be the very first to say I was wrong. More out of disappointment than to say to you but none-the-less I would and will…

  • isaac

    ur trying to compare college stats when tebow clearly came from a better school and better talent thats just stupid if i have all day to trow the ball i have good stats 2..he could just throw the ball up and some one would catch the ball..no comparioson tebow and cutler just like when russel came out i knew he was a bust this is the same thing unless the move tebow to FB because he is not a QB..

  • gatordadincolorado

    Tim Tebow has been one of the best QB's in the college ranks. I feel he will make a big difference in the Bronco Lineup. I have followed his college stats and they are great. Being a Gator Dad living in Denver I think you poor losers of Bronco Fans should give Tebow a chance and keep your foul language in check! I've been a Buc fan for over 30 years but now I'm a Bronco's fan with TIM TEBOW. GOD Bless Him!

  • mike32570

    My guess would be his seats are located in the 3rd and 4th sh**er

    are you just upset that your goat just died and you won't have anything to screw anymore…. look on the bright side you can always move to New Zealand

    elway was drafted to the colts, then traded to denver

  • lzr1

    Tim Tebow reminds me of another (bible thumper) Kurt Warner, they seem to have the same veiws. Maybe more of us should be thumping the bible. Give the kid a chance. It worked out pretty good for Kurt.

  • Lil

    Give them to me. I can't wait to see the player that ever mother wishes her daughter would marry play. Give me squeaky clean with values. I am just one of the tens of thousands of new Broncos fans because of Tebow.

  • NewTebowFan

    Your a D-Bag and Its obvious you don't have season tickets to make such a stupid comment

  • dennislittle

    Hi Markydenver,

    I will buy your season tickets. I think Tebow's faith is the best part, you ever read about David killing Goliath. Its the kind of faith that gets the job done. By the way hope u like extremely hot weather in case you don't find out the truth before its too late. :)

  • jay

    I've seen every college game Tebow's played, three in person. Truth about Tebow at UF: Looping windup; most of the time decides to throw/run after first read; operates out of spread (duh).

    Stuff you read that's not true: Below average arm strength and an inaccurate passer. Absolutely not true. Tebow can zip the 30 yard out pattern; he has above average arm strength and accuracy. He throws the deep ball very well.
    Tebow in college has a passer rating of 120, far higher than Peyton or Eli Manning did. He is one of the most accurate and efficient passers in college football history in the toughest conference.
    He averaged more than 1 yard per attempt more than either of them.
    He completed a TD on 8.9 percent of his pass attempts — easily outpacing Peyton, who threw a touchdown on 6.6 percent of his pass attempts. Tebow's accurate and makes good decisions: he threw an interception on just 1.52 percent of attempts — easily the best of other recent outstanding college quarterbacks.

    He's football smart and will work harder than anyone. So learning Denver's system won't be a problem.

    So it comes down to this: can he change is delivery to get the ball out faster? I think the answer will be yes and that Tebow will be an outstanding QB and team leader.

    ur a georgia fan lol

  • Paul

    I do not know his religeous views, but by that remark I am guessing you are a hard core liberal. How do I know? You bash everyone that does not think your way and you think everyone should live YOUR way. Move to russia.
    As I read on, it appears that most of the Bronco fans have class, So Go Bronc's and Tebow My son will wear your number with Honor.

  • you r

    you just described a republican. Markydenver is just an idiot.

  • football fan

    You might think that Tebow is a waste of a first round pick but you are human waste. Who cares what this talented althete's personal believes are. People such as yourself should not be entitled to an opinion, only an ass kicking……… loser!

  • jeremy

    Tebow is a horrible quarterback. College and the NFL are two different creatures. If Tebow was serious about coming to the NFL he should have been working on his throw while he was in school, not a few months before the draft. Also he may be good but he is two years out and we could have taken him in the second or third round, saved a ton of money and if he fails it wont hurt the pocketbook as bad.

  • jk

    what does that have to do with football d/a

    What a dumbass thing to say! Tebow’s faith and leadership are the very things that will turn around the Broncos franchise. His love for God and his strong work ethic are things that Denver will thrive off of. I wish I had your season tickets because they would not be wasted. Its funny that the bible says on Judgement Day EVERYBODY WILL CONFESS THAT HE IS LORD! This is whether you choose to accept Christ or deny him!
