The real problem with Tebow is that his release makes Campbell look like Dan Marino. He's an NFL backup at best.
I don't see anyone in college that lights my fire right now.
He's not going to have those huge gaps to run through either most likely, especially in the NFC East.
I'll preface this by saying I don't watch much college football. I was in a bar on Sat. evening watching Florida so of course I was focusing on Tebow.
A couple of things I noticed, he brings the ball back really low on his windup, I can't imagine the number of times he will get stripped in the NFL with that sort of motion. That's got to be fixed.
He's a gifted overall athlete no doubt. On the college level you can see where he is head and shoulders above most college defenders. But in the NFL I just don't see where his skills would make him an elite player, at least at the QB position.
Maybe you move him to another position but utilize him in the wildcat once in a while? Also, does he ever line up under center? If not that's going to be adjustment as well.
Looks like he would need some serious "coaching up" at the NFL level as far as his mechanics go if he's going to be a full time QB. I don't see how he's NFL ready right off the bat.
Just my 2 cents.

Tebow > Jacob Hester > Marcus Robinson = NFL RB

FYI- If texas beats Florida for the BCS championship...The danny will be all over McCoy! He won't let another franchise signal caller get away like what happened with Sanchez!
I agree with Buster, and McCoy isn't a "franchise signal caller" either.

Heres the thing with Pike, he's already gotten forearm surgery, he's very mistake prone, and his team seems to be doing as good without him as they were with him, so I'm saying no to him now, but if he performs well come senior bowl, combine, then ya I'd give him a shot. McCoy will not be a good pro QB, and Tebow I don't personally see being good, cause he's slow delivering the ball, and it wobbles/has an ugly throwing motion. Clausen needs to stay a year, because I don't think he's ready.

I would honestly love it the Redskins traded for Vince Young and drafted the top O-lineman in the first. He's a winner. Sure you can throw at me all the stats you want about his inaccuratecy but the guy fights for his team and can win.

You can count the number of times he's lined up under center on your fingers and toes, literally. His wind up, delivery, and accuracy are NOTHING to write home about. He's nothing more than a running quarterback with a bit bigger/tougher of a frame. His scream and yell and beat on his chest like an insane gorilla after every first down will NOT be part of NFL success. If he's going to have success in the NFL, it won't be with us, I don't see where people even get this notion.

Vince Young? Vince Young? I would rather sign Todd Collins to a 7 year 100 mil deal than trade anything for Vince Young. Todd Collins might retire before his contract would be up, but Vince Young might commit suicide after playing here under our scruitiny...and we would be out of a draft pick!
No thanks.
