Is Colt McCoy rated higher, in your opinion? I’m really not that knowledgeable about football, esp. NFL.

I don't know about ratings, but there are a lot of similarities between Tebow and McCoy. Both are strong Christians. Both have been highly successful in college, and there are questions about both as pro prospects. With Tebow, it's mechanics and the offense he runs. With McCoy, there are concerns that he may have already filled his full potential. McCoy is already an overachiever in terms of the amount of production he gets from the potential of his genetic makeup. Both will end up getting a look from a pro team, but neither is currently seen as being a must have quarterback.

Both will be well positioned to work themselves into a starting NFL job. They'll get the chance, it depends on what they do with it.

Yes, and in most scouts' opinion. Bradford is rated higher than McCoy.

Colt McCoy is rated higher but he isn’t rated that high because of the fact he likes to run better then pass and only passes normally to one or two receivers who many times had to reach to get the pass. I think he will do better based on his determination.

Sam Bradford, OU, despite the injury is expected to be the #1 quarterback drafted as the offense he ran fits the NFL better. Looks to be going to the Redskins in the last mock draft that I saw yesterday.

I belong to the Soonerfans message board along with being on Rivals and ESPN Insider and all the boards say the same about Tebow.
