Tebow's vertical leap His vertical jump of 38½ inches tied for best of any quarterback in combine history.
So as the NFL’s 2010 combine shut down, we were bombarded with a wide range of opinions on when, where and if Tim Tebow should be drafted.
The Gator Offense
There’s little question that the offense run by Urban Meyer at Florida retards the growth of quarterbacks who would be better prepared for the NFL had they played in a pro-style offense. Yes, there are some teams, most notably the Miami Dolphins, who are seriously adopting the run-first options of the spread offense but most NFL teams are slow to adopt what they refer to as a ‘gimmick offense’.
Tebow’s NFL Prospects
Will Tebow be drafted? Of course. Where will he go? No one knows because there are so many different opinions on what to do with him. I’ve witnessed many highly-rated Gator quarterbacks who fail in the NFL; Danny Wuerffel, Shane Matthews and Rex Grossman to name a few. Yet, who in their right mind would place their bets against Tim Tebow? Love him or hate him, you can’t deny his success on the field. And I don’t doubt for a minute that he will do whatever it takes to become an NFL quarterback.
Is he ready now? Absolutely not. But, if you’re a team with an established veteran quarterback with an above average quarterback coach, then why wouldn’t you take a chance on Tebow? I wouldn’t bet against him.
Tebow and McCoy chat it up with Saints QB coach Joe Lombardi.
I’m thinking the Patriots, Packers and Vikings would be a good fit for Tebow and, although it may just be the worst place for him to land, don’t count out Raider’s owner Al Davis making a play for Timmy.
And for those of you who are here just to see some hot shirtless photos of Tebow, there you go.

Out of that list, I'd probably put my money on the packers, maybe the vikings but not really. The Pats won't be the type, I think, to take a chance on a qb that's so questionable. But nevertheless, I'm sticking on the tight end bandwagon on this one, unless he does wind up on the raiders or the jags (kinda surprised you didn't include them in this conversation.) However, with that being said, I don't honestly think he'll be overly successful on the NFL stage. I think that when we look forward into the future of the league, we'll be talking about Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco, and Aaron Rogers to name a few. Even McCoy I think is promising, but I think that Tebow will turn out to be one of those forerunning promises that never cashes in. But we'll see.
