How soon before he gets phone calls from Aaron Rodgers and Brady Quinn telling him not to go?
If this is true, there is a strong chance a team takes him earlier than expected. The draft is only one round on the first night, and he is not expected to be taken in round one.
Maybe there is something to the Jax will take him no matter what rumors.

Tebow's physical combine metrics were outstanding for his peer group. I really didn't think he was that quick, but he is. He might have a future as a hybrid H-back in the NFL.
Apparently over the past few weeks there has been talk of the Rams trading a second rounder for Donovan McNabb. I know McNabb can't keep playing at a high level for that much longer, but if my choices are Suh and McNabb vs. Bradford and second rounder, that is probably the easiest decision of my life.
Oh, and forget McCoy. As near as I can tell, the entire argument for McCoy over Suh is that McCoy looks like a more disruptive pass-rusher, despite the fact that Suh has been better at it and showed at the combine that McCoy's quickness advantage was nothing more than our eyes fooling us.

Lots of rumbling about this trade but the local newscast says Devaney is denying it. We'll see. Apparently, OJ Atogwe would be part of the package.
The Raiders want to trade Asomugha for McNabb. McNabb is the most overrated QB in the league. He's never been accurate and he's not getting any younger. The Eagles can posture all they want about a top 42 pick or whatever but the fact is they don't want to pay him and will give him away if it comes down to it. McNabb couldn't win when he had a legit Super Bowl team around him for several years. I have no clue why any bad or mediocre team would want him. The only teams that make sense are the Cardinals and the Vikings without Favre. Maybe Carolina or someone like that.
Good as Asomugha is, the Raiders gave him a crazy contract that pays him like a franchise QB. Atogwe alone should have more trade value, not that I'm advocating the Rams trade one of their few good players.
Ah I wasn't aware of his contract status. I still wouldn't give the Eagles anything more than jack [expletive] for McNabb. Can the Raiders shed JaMarcus Russell yet?
