Tebow Blows 'Em Away on Pro Day

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Tim Tebow won a lot of big games at Florida Field during his epic career, but Wednesday's defeat of some of his biggest critics rates as one of his most impressive victories yet.

"To be honest with you," NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock said after watching the new and improved Tebow model, "I was blown away."

The man under the microscope felt pretty good about it, too.

"There was a lot of pressure, but thankfully I've been in some other situations where there was pressure," Tebow said after the much-anticipated unveiling of his revamped throwing motion during the University of Florida's pro day. "That's the great thing about work ethic; when you want to change something, if you work on it enough, it'll change."

He definitely changed some perceptions about his stock in the 2010 NFL Draft.

An estimated crowd of more than 2,000 filed into the stadium and ignored a light rain to watch about a dozen Gators audition for nearly 100 NFL decision-makers, including five head coaches. More than 150 media credentials were issued for the affair. Even a concessions stand was open.

"Pretty elaborate deal, for a pro day," Carolina coach John Fox said.

And No. 15 was the main event.
