Tebow has character, work ethic, and loves the game. Russell only seems to be interested in what the game will bring him (fame, bling, etc).
Count on Tebow to be busting his behind to improve the best and worst aspects of his game while Russell is smoking weed and eating skittles on the couch while playing Xbox.
Give Tebow Russell's arm and you quite possibly have a record all-pro, probowl QB.
Russell's already proven himself to be worthy of playing for the Raiders. I'd give Tebow the benefit of the doubt, doubt he's going to show up looking like a nose tackle anytime soon.
In general I think arm strength is vastly over-rated for QBs, but if Tebow can correct some of his mechanical issues he'll have quite a throw. He's gotten decent velocity on the ball with a less than stellar delivery, this tells me he's capable of generating a ton of energy given the losses through mechanical inefficiency.
Once he improves his coordination and gets comfortable with it I suspect he'll have a real rifle arm.
He needs to put more velocity on his intermediate throws too. Tebow has a tendency to float those types of throws a little too often. At Florida, he had pretty good receivers to bail him out of those attempts. However, I can't see him being successful that way in the pros. He's shown that he has a cannon from his downfield throws, he just needs to put more zip on throws within 15-20 yards.

JaMarcus Russell is the biggest bust of all time.
There isnt a chance on Earth Tebow will be able to match that.
I refuse to think about "TimBow" anymore.... I'm praying Buffalo or Jacksonville drafts this holier-than-thou fraud.
He is the opposite of Flutie: Flutie was too small that could throw, Tebow has all the requisite size and speed and CAN'T throw......
He'll be crushed like a grape when he tries to run out of the pocket........
Sour grapes from me? Nope, just the way I see it. We'll all find out soon enuff, just "praying" it's NOT with the Patriots!
