My name is Dillon Newport. I am currently attending Southern Polytechnic State University. I am a communications major and would like to become a sports journalist.

My first post about sports. I'm excited!

     Peyton Manning- From the start I said he is going to go to Arizona. Other than that o-line, which could be a problem because I am sure he fears for his health, it's the perfect fit. They have a great run game, which could help that already tremendous PA he has. He has Larry Fitz, and for all the other receivers on the roster, Peyton can make them better because that's what he does. I feel like all they need is a QB to actually go somewhere.
      Everyone kept talking about how the Dolphins were a great fit because of their offensive weapons. Well today that traded away the best WR on that team, Brandon Marshall. Denver? I find it hard to believe he would go there, even with all of this talk that he might. The Broncos just used a first round pick in 2010 to draft Tebow.
     I am not a Tebow supporter but I will make a case for him. He might not be a great QB and many won't even consider him a good QB, BUT he just made a miraculous turnaround for a team that just seemed down and out. He came in a really put fire under them and pumped up the locker room. I give most credit to that defense for winning those games, but the fact of the matter is that he was able to pump up the locker room and get them to the playoffs. If Peyton were to go there, they would either have to trade/release Tebow, or have him sit behind Peyton. If he sits behind Peyton, what will he learn? They are literally the complete opposites of each other. One runs and puts his shoulder down(Tebow) and the other tries waddling down field and falls when someone comes(Peyton). Also, Tebow's rookie contract will be up and it will be time to make a new contract and someone that just sat for 3-4 years isn't going to get much of a deal at all. unless he is doing something with Elway under the table.
     Back to the releasing/trading Tebow. Really? Who would trade for him. The only team without a young QB, who is in dire need of one, is Seattle. I would rather draft someone than take my chances on Tebow. The only other team that has even been related to picking Tebow up is Jacksonville.
     I think Blaine deserves at least on more year to get a fair evaluation. The lockout was hard on everyone, but in particular, rookies, especially QBs. Yes, there was Cam Newton who threw the ball better than anyone thought he would, but all rookie Qbs definitely deserve one more shot. All in all, Peyton is going to go to Arizona and there are going to be some bitter quarterbacks: Tebow, Kolb, Sanchez, Locker, and I'm sure many more by the time this is all over with.
