Watch Tebow
This is for thos who believe Tim Tebow is a legit QB for the NFL....Although i do give him an extreme amount of credit for the leadership that he gives his team. The "promise" that he delivered in 2008 was amazing, but leadership in college does not convert to leadership in the NFL. The system that Tebow is "exceling" makes him look good. The spread offense makes a QB make one read, and that is based on one player on the defense. Urban Meyer also produced Alex Smith when he coached in Utah. If you look at Tebows numbers he is around 176 yrds Avg/G. That is similar to what the Bills quarterbacks throw know. If he only does that in College imagine what he cant do in the pro's. I understand that Tebow has an extreme amount of determination and that is wonderful but if you dont have the talent then you cannot do it. This brings me to the next point about Tebow. He has some of the best skilled players around him, look at what Percy Harvin is doing in the NFL. That kid went off in the National Championship and was probably the biggest reason for them winning the game. Tebow has some of the best talent around and he stills struggles to only have about a 66% completion rating. I believe this is a result of Tebows poor mechanics which results in him being late with the football. First Tebows problem begins with where he holds the ball, the normal quarterback in the NFL holds the ball between his shoulder and ear. Tebow holds the ball around his midsection to his hip, as this converted to the NFL it will lead to fumbles and turnovers. Next is his windup...He throws the ball like a baseball and this is not my conclusion this has been said by many analyst and the average fan can see this. Tebow takes the ball and brings it around and releases from his ear very similar to a baseball player throwing a baseball. This long release cause the quarterback to be late on throws, which in the NFL results in INT's or missed throws. This is on top of the fact that Tebow does not have an average NFL arm, and yes i know thier are quarterbacks that get by without a great arm, but those quarterbacks have a quick releases. Tebow is a great guy that could eventually be an "ok" NFL quarterback. His leader atributes make him a very interesting pick, but when you need players that will impact now; taking a player that is going to be project its just not simply a good idea for the Franchise.
Worst Case Scenario
This is what has been wieghing on my mind more than anything. And maybe somewhere along the line we have discussed this but i have to get it out and say it. What happens if Buffalo's Draft weekend comes and goes and we dont trade Jason Peters. And we take Brandon Pettigrew at 11 (God forbid-not saying i dont like him but deff. not #11 material). OBD has made it more than obvious they like the guy. But back to Peters, if he is still stuck on his 11mil a yr kick. Do we really forgo another year of him waiting till the day before the opener and reporting? This opens me to my next point.. If we are not getting any suitors for our supposed 1st and 3rd demands, do we drop our standards and go for a 2nd and 4th. This scenario is like getting so drunk and then picken left overs at the end of the night at the bar.... Plz guys let me kno how ur feelen about If we dont move Peters?
Coles?? the answer
Now iam asking all of you out there is coles really the answer to helping this offense out? I want some feedback because i am having an extremely hard time with this in my mind.. Is he a pickup that could just make "us fans" happy. Not saying that the front office does that but they do need something to keep themselves in the good graces of "us fans". Now dont be shy i wanna see how Buffalo Nation feels about this....
