This is a little silly. First of all Im pretty sure we all agree Tebow is a high charachter guy with off the charts toughness and good athleticism. He set the college record for rushing TDs in college. Think about that. More rushing TDs than Hershel, Bo, Emmitt, etc....4.7 40 yd dash, 230+lbs, 6"2+. In his last game vs LSU he lit the Tigers up throwing the football. He graduated Florida with many claiming he was the best college football player EVER! There is no comparison to Cam Newton. The next time you find a 6"5 250lb+ QB running a 4.5 40 with possibly the strongest arm in the NFL, let me know. Vick is maybe a better comparison for Drews heir apparent. What if I said he actually reminded me a good bit of college Heath Shuler? Now hes really garbage huh? Lets hope we end up comparing him to Steve Young a lot!

His problem was he thought he was the second coming and instead was just a premature ejaculation..... as a QB. Had he been willing to do what Taysom's doing and play wherever, he would've been pretty good. I can see Taysom at scat back, WR and even safety -without yet seeing what he can do under center. Besides, why didn't TT ever get in any trouble for kneeling?

Taysom will make the rest of the league pay some when he starts for the Saints. We really need to concentrate on both lines and CB for the next 2 seasons until he takes over.

Thats a good point. No QB ever ran a 4.3 at the combine? OK. 4.42 is legit. Dude can really fly though.

Good for the kid. He looked like he was out there having fun. I really like to see that.

Agreed on the ST thing. However, I think we already have our return guy. I like what Tommy Lee's been doing.

Re: JUST WHEN YOU THINK SAINTS HAD THE BEST OFFSEASON HERE COMES

Not only can he fly but there are NFL players who don't like to hit or be hit... some don't even tackle. So A QB runs down on a ST play and make a tackle like that...

I heard this quote many times... you put the best 11 players you have on the field. Hill number came up.

I loved it that he was hanging out in the locker room with the QB's when Sean went over to him to tell him 'today you are a specialist - you need to get out there with them for warm ups/walk thru. lol.
