Doug Finger/The Gainesville Sun Tim Tebow, picked at No. 25 by Denver, will become a test case of the relative importance of character vs. technique.

Earlier in the round the Broncos chose Georgia Tech wide receiver Demaryius Thomas and then used a package of mid-round selections to trade up for Tebow. The Broncos chose Tebow at 25 in the first round.

Tebow, who used an unorthodox throwing style at Florida due to the peculiar offense, drew criticism.

ESPN, who telecast the Draft, was particularly critical of the selection and graded the Tebow pick an “F” on its website.

Tebow talked about the criticism in an interview on ESPN. “I was asked to do something at Florida, I was asked to run a certain style of offense,” Tebow said. “Now, I’m getting asked to do something different. I’m going to do everything possible to do that.”

Coach Josh McDaniels said he’s not concerned about Tebow’s adjustment, pointing out “He’s been very well coached. I don’t look at it like his system doesn’t fit our system. No quarterback’s does.
