swamprat Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Hasn't decided yet, but he doesn't think another Heisman or the National Title would affect his decision. Tebow Says Title Won't Be Factor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMustangFan Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I really hope he wins both, and comes back for his senior year. He could solidify himself as the greatest college football player of all-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennStation's Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 He's an incredible COLLEGE player. I would like to watch him again next year but he always seems to beat on my Wildcats so I'm torn on what I want him to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodsrider Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 He needs to stay. He is a god in the college game and will be mostly a non factor at the next level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he will be a very effective pro, just not sure if it will be at the QB position. IMO more likely as a RB or TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelCrazy Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I don't think Tebow has much of a future at RB. He just doesn't have the type of speed that NFL teams are looking for in a running back. He could be a decent TE, but who knows if he can catch? I think Tim Tebow has every intention of playing quarterback at the next level. And I see no reason why he cannot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems tailor-made to be either a 3rd-down back or a FB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his winning desire and personality and his "refuse to lose" attitude will allow him to play quarterback at the next level. He has a ton of work to do to be an NFL caliber quarterback, but something tells me he will do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't fast enough to be a RB. I think H back or maybe even TE is where he will best fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelCrazy Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I just don't see how people can doubt Tebow. He is a big guy who can run the ball, but he can also throw the ball pretty well. Obviously he'll have to become more of a pure passer in the NFL, but I think that he's capable of doing so. It's not like he's Eric Crouch.

NEERFAN Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I don't see him as a factor at QB in the NFL, but I do think he could find a niche at Hback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It surely isn't his pocket presence. He's a pretty good passer, but he's not the prototype there, and what makes him nigh unstoppable at the college level is the difficulty of college defenders to bring him down. Pro defenders would eat him alive if he just tried to bruise his way through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro defenders would eat him alive if he just tried to bruise his way through. What makes him great on the college level is EXACTLY what I want out of a quarterback. Good decision making, a strong will to win, pure strength, and the ability to lead others. Don't forget, I said he'll have to become more of a pure passer. He's not going to run over any d-lineman nor linebackers; however, he'll be able to take on some DB's head to head. How do people justify saying that Tebow won't be able to run the ball from the quarterback position but that he projects well as a running back? Doesn't that contradict itself? I think that Tebow is a quality quarterback. I don't think he'll be a star in the NFL, but he's the strongest player on his team at Florida & he can throw the ball & run it. In the NFL he'll have to throw more than run, but I think he's capable of doing that. Don't mistake not having to throw the ball with not being able to throw the ball.

mexitucky Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I think that Tebow would make a great weakside linebacker if he doesn't cut it as a QB. He has the mentality, he has the body, and from being a QB for so long, it wouldn't be hard for him to understand drop responsibilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't make that mistake, but I also know that the pros look for a certain style, and Tebow at the very least hasn't been shown to have that style yet. Many analysts feel the same way about Tebow's prospects. I certainly feel that he will be given a shot somewhere in some position, but IMO he won't be going in the first two rounds, and may not go on the first day at all.
