Imma stir this up a bit. Hear me out. I would like to trade back to the backhalf of the 1st round and pick up a 2nd rounder with our #4 pick. But even if we don't, say we do the most logical thing and draft an OLineman (I dunno who on here stated that Okung was the consensus overall #1 OT but ESPN has Anthony Davis rated higher, food for thought) So say we take Okung or Davis, whoever Shanny favors. Then we have our 2nd round pick. Some ppl have linked us with Colt McCoy. I do not know what it is about him, but i DISLIKE everything about him as an NFL QB. He is not built like an NFL QB and i dont think he can even grow into an NFL Frame. But unless someone has already taken a chance on him, Tim Tebow would still be available. I KNOW I KNOW, i sound like Dan Snyder. But Im not a Tebow fan, but i would have Tebow SHEETS before i could stomach cheering for McCoy (although if hes a redskin, then i gotta support him). So as you can derive, im not a fan of either, but support tebow over mccoy. My case is simple. We are keeping Jason Campbell for another year. So he can benefit from learning under him. Wont be forced to start too soon. Also, he will have a YEAR workin with the Shanahan's and LeFleur to work on his throwing motion. He is a proven winner. He is extremely competitive and would be a positive locker room influence (it would be funny if he had to get in Portis's face to put him in his place) Now The Shanahan's are offensive masterminds and in Tebow's 1st year, i'm sure they could give him a few packages to run during the season in spot duty. Just to get him on an NFL field (ala vick, cribbs, etc) to help him adjust to speed and competition. Another thing, Tebow is tough as hell, so if it takes more than 1 season to rebuild our OLine, we'd have a tough bastard back there that could handle it. And Shanahan also likes a QB that can move the pocket, and is agile. Id only question his accuracy

All this is pure speculation and in fun, but it displays my dislike for McCoy and changes from the boring clausen/bradford arguement that we've had 100 times over.
