It's hard being a Broncos fan... they're gonna take Tebow over Clausen?! Really?

Clausen is twice the QB that Tebow is... Better mechanics, better arm, MUCH better accuracy, comes from a pro-style system...

If Cleveland, Seattle, and all those other top 10 teams passed on him, they had to know something.

Half of the NFL has a need at QB, but no one picked him. I'd take a chance on Tebow over Clausen too. I might have waited till tomorrow though.

One would accuse the other of using their mascara, and then it's catfight city all season long. And even in the thin air, that's a whole bunch of douchebag for one place.
(p.s. TEBOW? What? To lead block for Moreno so he can actually SCORE FROM 6 INCHES AWAY? Ugh.)

and as much as I dislike his crybaby ***... I would still take him over Tebow 100 times out of 100... guess it's true, all it takes is one GM/coach.. too bad it had to be my favorite team.. UGH

or add the wrinkles to their offense Tebow can...they obviously feel they have all they need in Orton and Quinn...they were never going to take Clausen

Actually a great picture!

Clausens' crying is really related to Not being a TEAM player....
Can't say that about the other guy.
Just my observation.

Do you really waste a 1st rd pick on a guy that is just going to run the "Wildcat" 4 plays a game? Who really does that in the NFL anyway? Reid is a creative mind but couldn't find a way to use Vick, and Vick would be 10x better than Tebow at the spread or read option b/c of his speed. I think most NFL guys egos are too big to run more of an offense that they consider a gimmick, although it works. New ideas are now starting to surface in college though, so I think someone will eventually run a lot of spread/wildcat type stuff in the NFL.

But Tebow? Like Jerry Jones said, why??? He'll never get on the field. (not much in the short run OR the long run)

he's a winner and will help them....

And its better than drafting Clausen who will be the 3rd QB for the next 3-4 years and never get to play...why in the hell would you draft a 3rd string QB in the 1st round? At least Tebow will see the field and make some plays as he develops his footwork and better release

Won't Tebow be the same thing, a 3rd string QB? I'm not saying they should've drafted Clausen, that wouldn't make sense to me either since they already have 2 pro style QB's, one from the same college under the same coordinator. That being said though, it's awful presumptious to say Clausen will sit for 3-4 years. The difference in the two players is that Clausen has a MUCH higher probability of being a successful prototypical NFL QB not only down the road, but right now, unlike Tebow, who is almost a big of a project as Matt Jones was. You just don't take projects that early b/c of "character."

And Tebow will probably help them less than Vick helped Philly, which is virtually not at all.

How has Andy Reid's "plan" for running the Wildcat with Vick worked out so far? He threw less than one pass per game this year and a little over one carry per game. Is it worth it to just play him that much?
And Vick is a guy that has a TON more speed and athleticism than Tebow. I don't think Tebow has the speed to run the traditional type of Wildcat plays to the outside and make big plays in the run game. He's more suited to run b/t the tackles, so I just don't see him being a big play guy or really threatening NFL defenses w/ the run. He's averaged 4.3, 3.8, and 4.2 yds per carry at UF the last 3 years, which isn't very good considering how good their OL and other weapons were. He's nothing more than a short yardage fullback in the run game

Miami and some others have good success with it...

I wouldnt have made that pick either, all I was saying is that Clausen was even a worse pick for the Broncos than Tebow...at least Tebow has some value to see the field- Clausen wouldnt in Denver

the Broncos just traded 3 crucial picks for a H-back.

The draft is great because it show the difference between the haves (Indy, Pitt, NE) and the have-nots (Denver, Jacksonville, Raiders) Although the Raiders shocked me this year by actually making a solid pick.
