Your EXACT words, genius, in post 75: Drafting Tebow was a mistake, he’s not a good player, he got the coach fired,

You guys need to keep in mind it’s a CONVERSATION. Sometimes one re-iterates a point in a short way, because typing the whole thing over again is dull and kind of rude. Here’s the original long version from post 66:
Tebow was a TERRIBLE investment for the Broncos. There’s a reason why the coachthat picked him got fired. He created an instant QB controversy, and in game he stank, they traded 3 other picks to get a guy in the first round everybody though would stay on the board until the 3rd round.
More on the topic of how Tebow’s drafting got Daniels fired (post 70):
But that’s no reason to trade away 3 picks to get a second 1st round pick to take a guy projected to go in the 3rd round. They could have waited until their own round 2 pick (part of what they traded away) and gotten him then.

Now taken as a WHOLE yes drafting Tebow that way with that total cost got Daniels fired. Not drafting him in general. Notice I say they could have gotten him in the second.

Before throwing insults you guys should bother to read the thing and understand what’s being said.
