I honestly don't think he'll go.

IF he does declare for the draft, 3rd round as either RB or TE.

He would be a good player to take though. He has a lot of upside...meaning there's a lot of positions he could play. I hope he plays with the same passion in the NFL. He would be a very exciting player to watch, if he did.

would be a good fit in Chicago as QB. Hell, I would not mind seeing him develop under Drew Brees in N'awlins as long as the D gets some good picks first.

most people would watch him wanting him to fail.

and when he doesn't they will bad mouth him anyways.

he is exciting to watch.

tebow won't be a QB in the NFL ... his style just won't get it done .. he's not a classic pocket passer and he'll be facing front 7s that will all be collectively faster and much stronger than he is ... he wouldn't last four games in the league with that style .. i really see him as a TE ..

They just had an scout on ESPN, it wasn't Kiper or anyone that I've heard of and he said if Tebow were to drafted as a qb, best case scenario would be late 3rd, but more likely late 4th or 5th round. He said Tebow is not an nfl qb. Said he has a very slow delivery and is not very good at checking off to different receivers. The scout said Tebow would def. go higher if he was willing to be a TE.

yeah .. i think ESPN has been in the process of parting company with kiper since last year's draft, fwiw ..

I know Tebow called in to Kipers show not too long ago to defend himself as a quarterback prospect. He's a stubborn sonofabitch, it will be interesting to see what he does.

Doesn't check off to different receivers?
Louis Murphy - 36 receptions
Percy Harvin - 35 receptions
Aaron Hernandez - 29 receptions

Smells like a load of crap to me. He can develop, and he can't be worse than some of the junk we've seen in the NFL. At the very worst you'd have a great leader with an average QB talent.

sorry, tim will not be able to "will" himself into being an NFL QB .. that is where all the sappy phillipinian missionary stories will come to an end ..

He also distributed the ball pretty well in the SEC championship game. 6 different receivers caught balls.

Jimmy Johnson said on PTI earlier in the day he didn't know that he'd draft him to be the starting QB but he'd sure love to have that talent on his team, to give him a shot.
