Again, I'm not saying it can't be done, but there's just so little precedent for success with re-trained QBs that it should never be assumed it's any more than a very extreme longshot.

I think what it boils down to is both Crouch and Tebow were very gifted athletes, and it's hard to believe the NFL couldn't have found a way to utilize that athleticism. Timmy is a big strong tough SOB, seems hard to believe he couldn't have been re-purposed as a full back or some damn thing. I dunno.

And Frost from all I remember had a pretty successful career as a NFL safety.
