The Saints have been awfully resilient over the past four weeks, coming from behind in 3-of-4 games and holding off a near comeback by Matt Ryan and the Falcons. Compared to the Colts, however, their competition has been seriously lacking and they really haven’t been tested to the brink

This is the first in a weekly series detailing the top senior prospects, by position, for the 2010NFL Draft.
Here are the top 12 senior quarterback prospects NFL scouts will be keeping a close eye on this fall.
1. Tim Tebow
College: Florida
Height/Weight: 6-3, 245
Tebow will be a third-year starter in 2009. He has thrown 67 touchdown passes
and only 11 interceptions in the past three years. He will have a new
quarterback coach this year, Scott Loeffler, who came from the NFL. Tebow
should be a top-10 pick in the 2010 draft.
2. Colt McCoy
College: Texas
Height/Weight: 6-2½, 215
McCoy completed 77 percent of his passes in 2008 for 34 touchdowns and only
eight interceptions. He has above average running ability. He is a five-year
player who has gotten a lot stronger since coming to Texas. McCoy has been
well coached by Texas offensive coordinator Greg Davis. He will be a top-10
pick as a quarterback in the 2010 draft.
3. Dan LeFevour
College: Central Michigan
Height/Weight: 6-3, 230
LeFevour will be a four-year starter and is only the second quarterback to
pass for 3,000 yards and run for 1,000 more in NCAA Div. I history (former
Texas QB Vince Young was the first). He is a fifth-year player.
4. Jarrett Brown
College: West Virginia
Height/Weight: 6-2½, 228
Brown is a fifth-year player who had been in a backup role behind Pat White.
He has a very strong arm and good athletic ability. He played on the
Mountaineers basketball team in 2008. He is a risk/reward-type player.
5. Tim Hiller
College: Western Michigan
Height/Weight: 6-4, 230
Hiller started five games in 2005 as a true freshman. He missed the 2006
season due to injury. He is a 4.0 student and went to the same Ohio high
school (Orrville) as Bob Knight. He has 76 touchdown passes in his career.
6. Zac Robinson
College: Oklahoma State
Height/Weight: 6-3, 220
Robinson threw 25 touchdown passes and only 10 interceptions in 2008 and set a
school record for total yards in 2007. He has good accuracy and understanding
of the game. He moves well.
7. Tony Pike
College: Cincinnati
Height/Weight: 6-5½, 210
Pike didn't play a lot until 2005 -- had some up-and-down games and finished
the season throwing four interceptions vs. Virginia Tech in the Orange Bowl.
He does have upside, but will need to show more consistency.
8. Isiah "Juice" Williams
College: Illinois
Height/Weight: 6-1¼, 235
Williams had 3,892 total yards in 2008. He is the best quarterback in the Big
Ten, but he needs to become a better passer. He had 22 touchdown passes and 16
interceptions last season.
9. John Skelton
College: Fordham
Height/Weight: 6-5, 245
Skelton has started three years in a non-scholarship program (Patriot League).
He has a good arm and upside, and seems to have the ability to compete for a
spot at the next level.
10. Max Hall
College: BYU
Height/Weight: 6-3¾, 200
Hall had 35 touchdown passes and 3,957 passing yards in 2008. He has 61
touchdown passes over the past two years. He is a transfer from Arizona State.
11. Rusty Smith
College: Florida Atlantic
Height/Weight: 6-4, 230
Smith has thrown 62 touchdown passes in three seasons. He played in 2008 with
a separated shoulder.
12. Joe Webb
College: Alabama-Birmingham
Height/Weight: 6-3, 220
Webb had the athletic ability to play wide receiver in 2007, but needs to work
on his passing.

No only have the Raptors have won 9 of their last 10 at home, and are coming off a huge win against the Lakers, they will also want revenge against the Heat, and have had 2 solid practices to prepare for them. I expect D Wade to have a HUGE game tonight but I also think it’s going to be a real tough game to get up there.
