I would love to have him on the Niners.
he's legit, but so is McCoy from texas and i wouldnt mind one bit if we landed tebow despite what some people say on here. the guy gets results
I personally dont feel like McCoy's game will translate well to the NFL - average arm strength, minimal experience from under center, and I personally feel that his high completion percentage was somewhat soft in that the majority of his are of under 15 yard variety and operates typically between the hashes (just my opinion from what Ive seen from him)... The same can be said for Tebow as well.
Id much rather go after a player like Jevan Snead who has shown excellent arm strength, solid pocket presence, and excellent accuracy downfield while playing against some of the top defenses in the nation out of the SEC.
never know until it happens i guess. i just see all these guys with bg arms like jamarcus russel, kyle orton, mike vick... they can throw it a mile but its a guess where that ball is actually gonna end up. no team throws the ball downfield all day. i think McCoy and Tebow do what they need to do to win. especially tebow. and if what some of you guys are saying about tebow is true, and he ends up available in the 2nd or 3rd, i would take him in a heart beat. im just having regrets about spending another #1 pick on a QB. its a huge gamble
Referring to just those big armed QBs is selective criticism if I've ever seen it... What about Carson Palmer, Aaron Rodgers, Joe Flacco, Matt Ryan, Ben Roethlesberger. The fact is, if you had the choice between a QB with above-average arm strength or average to below-average arm strength, which would you choose.
Regarding selecting a QB in the 1st round, I simply dont understand the argument that teams shouldnt spend 1st rounders on QBs because of the low success rates. If a team has a need at that position, and a QB on which they have a 1st round grade falls to them - passing just shows a lack of confidence in your scouting department.
My top two options at QB in next years draft are Sam Bradford and Jevan Snead - If we have a shot at either, we should probably pull the trigger... Just like we should of had Sanchez fallen to this year or Flacco last year.
