he has a long way to go, and he may do well. But I highly doubt he will have a immediate impact.

Alex Smith is the starter in San Francisco. If they hadn't been so screwed up the past several years (hiring and firing coaches, changing offensive philosophies, etc.), he may have found more success.
As to Tebow, I don't think anyone expects him to have an immediate impact or even contribute this year. He's a project, but if he pans out, he could be a tremendous player.
And if he doesn't, all he cost the Broncos was the 25th overall pick in a year where they had two first rounders and two third rounders. It's a small price to pay for someone with his potential.
