How would people feel if we drafted Tebow?

Tebow didnt win the heisman because he was playing for florida.
He won it because he had 50 total touchdowns on the year, 24 rushing 26 passing, Must say very impressive for a QB much less a QB thats making all that happen in the SEC. Tebow is a workhorse!

If we're gonna puke pea soup over Tebow, how bout some substance? perhaps: - "His arm is questionable." - "He has no experience in a pro style offense." - "His team around him decimates his opposition, leaving him untested." - "A number of scouts are questioning his ability to read & react." - "Because he cusses underclassmen, and pops equipment managers with towels." - "Because f*** Florida, thats why!" Which are much more credible than: - "becaue he smiles/cries/perspires." - "because he loves Jesus and dares to say so." (how many players name themselves "Mohammed?"-- I say no harm, no foul.) - "because he's "All American," and I like my heros subversive and melancholy." Drew Brees is clean & articulate too, smiles a lot, has a lovely wife, seems to love America, and even dares to mention God. --and nobody in New Orleans had a Linda Blair attack when he speaks. So lets enjoy some beignets and be glad there are puppies & kittens. At least if the guy espouses values, maybe he wont be distracted by strip clubs, baby-mamas, and gun violence? maybe? After some personal self soul-evaluation for some of us, I think the prime question we ask is, "Can he help us win?" |

Not that big of a need. I much rather see us develop Chase Daniels. I believe Tebow might have success as a QB but its not a given. He has a long way to go. I think he just as well migh end up as a TE and have a good career there.

Re: How would people feel if we drafted Tebow?
Living in Florida I have had to endure the medias constant Tebow love fest for too many years. I am not a Gator's fan, Go Canes, but I try(TRY) to keep my opinion unbiased. What I saw Tebow do was attempt to carry a team and do it all. He is a hard worker on the field. I am not sure he always utilized other weapons when possible. I believe he was also fortunate to go to a school where they have possibly the strongest recruiting. In the pros, he will not have a long lived career if he attempts to run up the middle all of the time. I hope if we do draft him it is later than 2nd round pick.

Great kid, but I'd be embarrassed if we selected him. Maybe in the 7th as an H-Back, but no earlier.

Please watch this...and if you still think he doesn't have potential to be a star QB in the NFL, then...well...I just give-up. Oh...and if you ever questioned his heart, toughness, or desire to win...check-out the part around the 3:00 mark... |
