"Denver panicked,'' Wilson said. "He's a good player but we had no interest in taking Tebow. We were not moving up to take Tebow."

Why can't he just keep his mouth shut and not say anything?

Re: Ralph Wilson: "Broncos panicked"

im actually glad he said this. it proves we know what a good qb looks like for starters, and secondly it proves that guys like schefter pull **** outta their ass when making statements that the bills were "feverishly" trying to trade up for tebow. Or the bills were upset they missed out on tebow. tell em Ralph!!

let this be a lesson to people who believe all the crap that goes on and what is said prior to the draft

Re: Ralph Wilson: "Broncos panicked"

Nix might have been selling a story....but I think Ralphie's pretty much stream of consciousness at this point. I'm confident that Tebow wasn't on our radar.

Re: Ralph Wilson: "Broncos panicked"

i wonder if the team just disregards kelly's input, or them purposefully use him as a smokescreen.

he was very vocal about tebow. was he doing it to help tebow out, help with misinformation or truly wanted the guy.

we'll never know. but it is amazing how much stuff is said and how this proves that when information is unreliable like it normally is around draft time, values just take on a whole new meaning.

Yeah - this year I've lost almost all faith in the pundits, even the better ones like Schefter. These guys really miss way more than they get right.

It was just something to write about...

Re: Ralph Wilson: "Broncos panicked"

I think the Bills probably had interest in Tebow, but to give up the next three picks to get him with the holes on this team is too steep of a price to pay.

I think this is absolutely hilarious. A 90-year old is talkin' smack. I like it!

Re: Ralph Wilson: "Broncos panicked"

Ralph, win something within a 10-year span then go running your mouth critiquing how others judge talent.

Based on how the Bills have done, I'd take Ralph's comments as a compliment if I were Denver.

like we're supposed to believe what The Old Fart says? how many times has he pissed in our ears and told us it was raining? i don't believe him any more than the douchebags who were saying **** prior to the draft.

Re: Ralph Wilson: "Broncos panicked"

ralph is always annoyed when people break for convention to make a splash. because he knows that it effects future deals.

i get the sense the bills went with a trade proposal that was typical, but the broncos out bid them. now ralph knows, this time next year, everyone is expecting an outlandish offer and that makes it hard to move.

also add in the fact the bills didn't get to move up, ralph's pissed. it's fair.

Re: Ralph Wilson: "Broncos panicked"

Regardless of whether or not Nix and Wilson are telling the truth about Buffalo's interest in Tebow, he's right, Denver panicked.

Denver panicked when they fired Shanahan....
