My thoughts on day one of NFL draft
April 25th 2010 12:49
I will share a few thoughts I have about what went down during that draft. This is not an in depth review of each pick in the 2010 NFL draft, just my take on some of the players drafted. For the record I pull for the Kansas City Chiefs and Carolina Panthers.
The Denver Broncos drafted Tim Tebow in the first round of the 2010 NFL draft. Drafting Tebow that early was shocking enough but Denver also traded several draft picks to get him. I was shocked that Tim Tebow was drafted in the first round because I wrote this wondering if he would even play quarterback in the NFL. I also had Tim Tebow ranked 4th on the quarterbacks entering the 2010 NFL draft.
I have mixed feelings about Tim Tebow. He is hated for being religious and that is wrong. But I wonder how much of the Tim Tebow we know is just good public relations work?
ESPN has given us so much Tim Tebow that I quickly tired of him. Just like Brett Favre, the world wide leader has shoved Tebow down our throats. If Tebow had went to the Vikings and learned from Favre, then ESPN would have been unbearable.
Dez Bryant being drafted by the Dallas Cowboys was a shocking development of the 2010 NFL draft. Dez Bryant will wear number 88 for the Dallas Cowboys just like Michael Irvin and Drew Pearson. Pearson and Irvin are on my best Dallas Cowboy wide receivers ever list, but I wonder if Bryant will be. He seems like Michael Irvin off the field but does not have Irvin's work ethic.
Jimmy Clausen not being drafted in the first round of the 2010 NFL draft was a bit odd. The fact that the Carolina Panthers picked him in the 2nd round is distressing to me. The Panthers needed defensive linemen and wide receivers not a quarterback with an attitude problem.
I think the biggest 2010 NFL draft day shocker was the Jacksonville Jaguars selecting
Tyson Alualo the defensive tackle out of California. While I expect Alualo to be a good player, I think he was a reach at number 10.
Due to issues with Orble on the technical side, this is the first time I have been able to post since the 2010 NFL draft.
