As I mentioned in the post above, Tebow was a freebie due to all of McDaniels moves in the draft.

those were the players that were available at those draft spots they traded away to take Tebow.

its not a "broke linebacker or a TE" its a broke linebacker, a good safety to pair with Dawkins and a good receiving tight end...or a quarterback that is realistically a two year project that lacks a lot of the raw physical skills to flourish at a championship level in the NFL.

But, again, that is JMO from a fans perspective.

If they win playoff games with the kid, it was a homerun trade.

If it only takes two years for Tebow to be championship level, the Chiefs should have taken him.

He'll have been the steal of the draft if he's got the Broncos in the AFC Championship or Super Bowl in 2012.

thats not what I said.

I said he is a 2 year project that lacks a lot of the "physical tools" to flourish at a level that wins championships.

Honestly, if Josh doesnt try to take his legs away from the kid and lets him use his mobility as part of his game/playbook, he can be a weapon in the league. The problem there is that I think he will try to make him Tom Brady and keep him in the pocket instead of using what is probably his best strength, in his mobility, to try and win games.

Honestly, I think they took a guy very very similar player to Thigpen with a first rounder. But his true value is how he raises the level of competition for the rest of the team and if that is effective enough to win big games in the playoffs.

time will tell if he does that.

The only physical tool he "lacks" was the proper throwing motion which has improved since January.

And as CB mentioned, Bernie Kosar's weird delivery didn't stop him from success in the NFL.

I think Tebow's more like Steve Young, which is a scary thought.

Oops. We already all knew that.

We don't throw to the TE very much and we have blocking TE's. We also use a spread offense. Tebow will be perfect for it and he's 6'3.
