Bob Tebow started it by saying his son would go in the top-15 picks.
Both Florio and I have also separately chimed in saying that we think someone will take a chance on Tebow in the first round.
Mock drafts still routinely list Tebow in the second round. Vegas would probably set his over/under draft slot around 45.
But Mike Lombardi of the NFL Network believes Tebow won’t make the draft’s second night.
“From the people I’ve talked to,” Lombardi writes. “It now appears likely that he’ll go in the bottom of the first round.”
It’s remarkable that Tebow was often talked about as a mid-round prospect after the Senior Bowl, and now there’s plenty of belief he’ll go in the top 32.
He must be a great dinner date.
