It&#39;s just more common that a good team will sell more tickets.

Guys like Tebow have that something special that goes way beyond what guys like Bradford have. tebow will be a better NFL player than Bradford...I gaurantee it!Magnushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16540020585308572456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-31259011155041324102009-01-08T18:51:00.000-05:002009-01-08T18:51:00.000-05:00that's not a bad point. Mayo absolutely tore up Tebow's gmae last time they played each other. And Tennessee's defense at the time only had maybe 2 other pro-caliber athletes.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08772353951086483251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-4132926488464120382008-12-31T19:09:00.000-05:002008-12-31T19:09:00.000-05:00I don't mean to slight Tebow as a collegiate football star (although I don't think he's in VY's stratosphere). But as a pro "project" he's not as freakishly athletic as Matt Jones was coming out a few years ago. Tebow is a tough guy, leader,role model, etc. But he doesn't possess that dynamic speed to avoid the Mayo-type linebackers of the NFL.<BR/><BR/>Also, I hope Bradford sees a repeat of the TCU game.<BR/><BR/>411 pass yards and 4 tds.Maxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12748050558921060466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-75449314098389960912008-12-31T11:37:00.000-05:002008-12-31T11:37:00.000-05:00Max,<BR/><BR/>As big a question mark as Tebow is as an NFL prospect, he's an even bigger sure thing as a college QB, redefining what's possible at the position, and he and the Gators will carve up the mediocre Sooner defense, while Bradford will see a repeat of the TCU game, but with even faster athletes figuring things out after a fast start. OU is very good, but UF is better: 42-30, Gators win.Willhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16922998253860860335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-77887390470093185082008-12-29T21:07:00.000-05:002008-12-29T21:07:00.000-05:00While I understand Tebow's image will play some factor in whatever team drafts him, I dont think Brady Quinn or Matt Leinart would completely agree that a players marketability has any correlation to draft position. <BR/><BR/>On a side note, I cant wait to see how you manage to slight Bradford after OU hangs 50+ on the Gators next week.Maxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12748050558921060466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-89327054029026755192008-12-29T18:58:00.000-05:002008-12-29T18:58:00.000-05:00Your logic behind the Jags picking Tebow is wretched. And what makes you think Tebow will go on the first day for sure? Because he will help a team sell 100 or so more tickets from his family?<BR/><BR/>I believe most, wait, all football teams draft on talent and need.Bretthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07847114098891496678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-43129218588916314592008-12-29T16:20:00.000-05:002008-12-29T16:20:00.000-05:00I think you are pretty far off on this one Danny. Their GM was recently fired for making stupid moves and this would not be the way to turn it around. I don't think the Jaguars fan base would like it either. They have way too many needs to be drafting a project of Tebow's proportions in the top ten.Tedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14096182603306384625noreply@blogger.com
