Dense? Ouch. They don't run the triple offense in the NFL Heath. There is no way he gets drafted as a top QB. He wasn't even projected to go in the first 3 rounds this year if he left early. He's NOT an NFL quarterback, regardless of what he does in college.

FYI, Tebow gets the word by helmet what receiver to goto prior to the snap.

No way in hell he'll be able to project an NFL defense, especially when he'll have to start taking snaps under center.

Tim Tebow will be the next Ryan Leaf..

Except NO ONE is expecting him to be a top drafted QB like Leaf was. I'd compare him more to another Heisman and National Championship QB from Florida....Danny Weurfel. He was huge at Florida but did exactly nothing in the NFL. Look at the list of Heisman QBs since 1990 and see how many have had succesful NFL careers. I count 1 (Carson Palmer). College success doesn't mean anything to NFL scouts.

1990 Ty Detmer Brigham Young QB Jr. 1,482
1992 Gino Torretta Miami (Fla) QB Sr. 1,400
1993 Charlie Ward Florida State QB Sr. 2,310
1996 Danny Wuerffel Florida QB Sr. 1,363
2000 Chris Weinke Florida State QB Sr. 1,628
2001 Eric Crouch Nebraska QB Sr. 770
2002 Carson Palmer USC QB Sr. 1,328
2003 Jason White Oklahoma QB Jr. 1,481
2004 Matt Leinart USC QB Jr. 1,325
2006 Troy Smith Ohio State QB Sr. 2,540

Brad Childress called off meetings with Brett Favre to pursue trading up in the 2010 draft to select Nick Mertens as the #1 overall selection (right Kirk and Tony?;))

LMAO. Football>you. That is all.

Mertens for #1 overall! (I'm going to laugh if he comes out and is actually a stud this year)

Supposedly, Rachel Nichols said that Childress hasn't even spoken to Favre yet??

[GarageAlchemist]

Alright, sides taken, now sit and wait. I can't wait to say i told you so. Oh, Tony, i wasn't aware you had so much football expirence!

source close to the situation told ESPN's Jeremy Schaap on Friday that X-rays of Favre's right shoulder -- he has pain resulting from a torn biceps tendon -- have been sent to the Vikings and that the X-rays are in the process of being evaluated. If it is determined by Favre's and the Vikings' medical people that he needs anything less than "major" surgery on his shoulder, Favre will un-retire to play for the Vikings, the source said.
