"In terms of NFL prospects, Tebow flashes the potential to earn an exceptional grade and has a cupboard full of accolades, but his game isn't without warts. His statistics are certainly inflated by coach Urban Meyer's scheme, and Tebow needs to develop his overall accuracy and feel in the pocket to enjoy similar success in the NFL."

Rating: No. 4 among quarterbacks, No. 28 among all players with a draft projection of Rounds 1 or 2.

"Flashes great touch and the ability to fit the ball into tight spots down the field but is far too inconsistent with his overall accuracy. Needs to learn to change velocities and show better touch on underneath throws. Deep ball will flutter and float too often. ... He frequently operates with enormous passing windows, which allow him to miss within the strike zone with no consequence. He completes a lot of passes that will throw his receiver off course, thus eliminating potential yards after catch. Many of those misses within the strike zone will either be batted down or picked off in the NFL."

Rating: No. 4 among quarterbacks, No. 70 among all players with a draft projection of Round 3.
