I'm kinda surprised Jevan Snead isn't an option here. I guess you couldn't bear the thought of seeing him get one lonely vote, huh?

Dude my vote was solely based on the fact I knew you were smitten with Tebow and since we disagree on everything I roled with McCoy.

Just kidding, but seriously I would even consider taking Colt over Clausen at this point. Tebow, if even being drafted by as a quarterback, probably isnt a legit 2nd round pick. Tebow to be successful is probably going to have to be drafted by the right team where he sits for a couple years, works on his mechanics, and learns to the system.

Re: Tebow or McCoy?

While there are major questions as to whether either of these guys can ever be a starting QB in the NFL, I would absolutely pick Tebow for 2 reasons:

1) Intangibles; he has far more upside
2) If he busts as a starting QB, he would most definitely be able to help the team as a TE/HB/Emergency QB. He'd essentially be an offensive Lorenzo Alexander.

See I don't get how he will be able to just go to another position. This isn't college ball. It's the NFL and there are guys out there that have been playing these positions their whole lives. His best bet is a 3rd string emergency QB and full time on teams. A guy who played QB at Va Tech has done it. Can't think of the guys name but he played on Jacksonville and Cleveland.

Re: Tebow or McCoy?

Even though i dont like left handed qb's i got to go with Tebow. Theres just something about him. And i know this poll is just about which qb would you rather start in 2011, but if neither work out at QB at least you have other options with Tebow. Hedges yourself a little bit.

Re: Tebow or McCoy?

C. Neither. Tebow is not going to make it as an NFL QB so there is no point in discussing him. I guess you're on the Tebow hype too. lol. McCoy reminds me so much of Heath Shuler it's scary. He simply doesn't have all the throws to make it as an NFL starter. Neither guy will be here starting. My guess is it's still going to be Jason Campbell cause there isn't anyone out there that is better.

Re: Tebow or McCoy?

I think McCoy is better suited for the offense that Shanhan and son bring to the table. Tebow would be more of a project.

Re: Tebow or McCoy?

Easily McCoy...I don't think tebow can get on the field fast enough for him to make sense for Shanny. As for McCoy...I am not a huge fan but I have read that if he projects as an NFL starter at all it is most likely in a West Coast system so he at least seems like a good fit for us.

Re: Tebow or McCoy?

I don't know if there's a wrong answer here. You can't really go wrong with McCoy, as long as you're willing to work within what he does well. On Tebow, the development path might be longer, and less fruitful, and ultimately probably not worth a high 2nd round pick, but you give me one of these two on a reasonable contract and a top offensive tackle (this is the key part -- the OT pick can't fail), and I can win a whole bunch of games with them.

I have McCoy as a mid-first round value, so he's the poll answer for me.

Re: Tebow or McCoy?

I don't think either one will have much NFL success, however McCoy's my pick if I'm forced to take one of the two. McCoy has better fundys, better accuracy, not necessarily better staight line speed but better quickness and "escapability".

Neither...but if I had to choose one it would be Tebow because I'm a gator fan and because he's tougher than mccoy

Re: Tebow or McCoy?

News flash!! Tim Tebow is NOT an NFL QB!! Yes, he is a great young man, YES he is tough as nails, YES he was a winner in College, but NO he will not be successful as a QB in the NFL. Guys please act like you actually know the game, there have been superstars in College that haven't even been able to step on an NFL field. None of the "experts" think this guy is an NFL QB and at the very best he is a 3 yr project before they would even trust him to get on the field.

Re: Tebow or McCoy?

Tebow. to me, McCoy is a Brennen clone. not sure if Tebow can make the transition. but the guy is a winner. there is something to be said for that

i completely agree with you. there's just something special about tebow. too me, he's got that "it factor" we always hear about.
