I am among the few who believe that Tebow can be an NFL QB. I think he's limited, but he does have talent. He's not a timing passer, but he is an instinctive and talented player. That's what you saw in Denver. They tried to force him to be a timing passer for most of the game and the offense struggled. Then they'd turn him loose and Denver pulled out games. A better coach would tailor their offense more to his skills. If he ended up in a Malzon offense, he'd win. Maybe not the whole thing, but quite a bit.

Modern Joe Kapp, will likely never be a pretty passer, will win a team football games IF they can run the ball and not rely on him to be a pocket passer.

Tebow brings the circus, no question. I don't think he is a fit for a conventional NFL offense, though maybe all this extra training has made him roster-quality.
He's a throwback QB. I think you run things like Florida and he's got a chance, but that is an awfully specific vision and set of personnel. It would take years.
His best chance is as a developmental third-stringer at this stage. -
He also brings in a lot of money. For some reason he is seen as "The Christian" in a VERY Christian organization. If he was decent as a quarterback, he would have a team.

I actually hope he gets a shot somewhere. Tom House is becoming a well known off-season QB coach and Tebow is ultimate test. I know he questioned Tebow's biomechanics coming out of Florida, but if he's put in that much time with him this off-season, I'm really curious to see if Tebow's evolved as a passer.

2010 Tebow Scouting Report
How much did his time in the NFL fix/demonstrate otherwise? How much is fixable?
Strengths:Good height and great musculature
Solid arm strength
Very good deep ball accuracy
Great pass rush sense and pocket instincts
Athletic and can move chains with legs
Extremely powerful runner
Good trucking ability; picks up yards after contact
Good character and strong work ethic
Prototype leader
Weaknesses:
Absolutely horrendous footwork; has not gotten better since freshman year
Plays in run-option offense
Doesn't throw smooth ball; bad touch
Inaccurate on intermediate routes
Extremely long release
Very bad passing mechanics
Locks onto primary receiver
No pro reads in offense
Left-handed
Tucks and runs
Doesn't make pro-style passing progression reads
Comes from program with bad QB pedigree
Summary: If I could take Tim Tebow's mind and put it into the body of some college quarterbacks, then they would be No. 1 overall picks. However, we have seen quarterbacks with outstanding intangibles bust at the next level. It will take Tebow 3-4 years to learn an NFL offense to where he could actually start a game.
Tebow's best fit at the next level will be at fullback or H-Back because his best skills are his running abilities; there's too much development involved to draft Tebow as a franchise quarterback, though the success of Pat White in the Wildcat offense could help his draft stock. Looks to be a second-round pick with his great intangibles and versatility.
Player Comparison: Byron Leftwich (Passer)/Mike Alstott (Runner). Tebow has a very similar release to Leftwich and he will also struggle to read defenses in NFL. He also has Mike Alstott's elite power running attributes with the ability to get yards after contact.

I root for Tebow as he seems like a pretty good guy with the charity work he does, doesn't get into trouble (from what I know of course). AS a qb though eesh.

Urban Meyer: "I still don't get [why Tim Tebow is out of the NFL]"
" "He's the second-most efficient passer ever to play college football.""
