For all of you Denver diehards clamoring for the Broncos to bring back Tim Tebow, do I have the thing for you …
Dak Prescott!
Prescott provides many of the same things Tebow showed while back at Florida — mobility, leadership and composure — but this time around, he can actually throw a football.
Now, is he a polished pocket passer? Not at all. But he’s not broken, either. Not to mention, he’s shown a mental ability to understand and manipulate defenses in a way Tebow never could — at times, at least. While his calling card will likely always be his legs, the improvement he’s shown as a pure passer is impressive, and reason enough to take a chance.
More importantly, though, the Broncos have shown legitimate interest in Prescott. He’s not going to be a first- or second-round selection, but if the Broncos can pick him up in the late-third, early-forth round, he could be a nice value.
