Interesting take. I don’t think i’ve ever seen a QB transition into a defensive end.



Youve missed the point. Im saying if he would have started off at those positions. Never played QB.

LSU beat Bama twice and made it to the championship game with Jefferson at QB.

Jordan could run in a straight line, was big, but we have no idea what his hands were.
The NFL would have loved to transform Tebow into a tight end. The Patriots even tried Danny Etling as a TE / WR. A lot of college QB's were moved to other positions or teams wanted them to move. No one even hinted at Jordan trying a different position. That tells me what the pros thought of his potential.

Safety or outside LB.

Yes. Same for Marcus Randall. Well, not still, but Randall could have been a Pro DB

I just learned that Jordan was born in Covington, LA. Interesting.

Yeah, and Russell Shepherd would've been a starting NFL Qb had Les not misused him in college [sarcasm]

Would have helped if Les Miles was not his coach.

He sucked the life out of LSU football as Les kept sending him out as our starting QB when he better qualified to be a bouncer at Reggies. Justin was an awesome Tiger, and worked his arse off to make it to the NFL, why taint his night in the spotlight with a thread about his knucklehead brother?

I don't mean to dismiss the premise that there are players who simply chose the wrong position and could have made it in other positions. It likely happens, but..

What percentage of NFL players have brothers? What percentage of those are also in the NFL?

I'm guessing it's kinda low.
