Tebow owns the highest career college QB Passing Efficiency of All-Time with 170.7879. As for individual seasons,
In 2009, he was ranked #1 with a PE of 164.17
In 2008, he was ranked #4 with a PE of 172.37
In 2007, he was ranked #2 with a PE of 172.5
In 2006, he wasn't ranked (did not meet minimum att/game), but had a PE of 201.73.
Vick had a PE of 152.93 in his 2 years of playing. (Vick had a 179.189 PE in 1999, but threw 12.75 passes per game, which is below minimum att/game).
Brennan had a PE 167.645 in his 3 years of playing.
In fact, Tebow has higher season totals than Stafford, Sanchez, Russell, Ryan ever had. In fact, they compared the PE rating of Bradford and Tebow before the 2009 BCS Title game and it proved that Tebow has a higher completion percentage and PE rating than Sam Bradford on passes longer than 20 yards. And it wasn't a case of the sample size being too small either. I wish I could find it, but my ESPN membership expired.

He threw at Florida's Pro Day.

The vast majority of experts think he has little chance of it.
i want Colt McCoy with the 9th pick.

Colt is crazy accurate, but he doesn't throw down field as well. There are comparisons to Drew Brees, but Brees holds the ball up much higher and has a much stronger arm. Also, the vast majority of scouts and executives are mixed. Kiper has Tebow in his new first round and both Mayock and Gruden think he's worth a 1st-round pick as well. Mayock thinks he can do very well in the league.
