Tim Tebow- Jags new TE (merged)

I appreciate the team giving him a shot, am enjoying the newness of the Jags situation with Trevor, and will consider it completely understandable if Tebow doesn't make the roster. Way "back when" when pundits said he should switch to tight end, I thought they were wrong. I do not think the position is well-suited to Tebow's body type or skill set. Offensively, he's a fullback. Defensively, he would be a great middle linebacker. I was referring to wishing him the best, but accepting that it's most likely he is cut. That's more of an attitude. The idea that it is not expected he would be at contributing level on conventional TE duties? That's my belief -- that special teams, gadget, goal line is what he could contribute now. But, if my shining example can serve as a beacon of light to others, so be it. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

He was an okay college player... he will never be remembered for anything he did statistically.. it'll always be, oh remember that one jump pass he did? Gimmick garbage. That's what he was in College that's what he is now. A gimmick.

He scored more touchdowns than anyone in SEC history -- breaking Hershel Walker's long-standing record. He did so while also throwing for about the same number of touchdowns as Peyton Manning. Thing of it -- one player who rushes for touchdowns at the clip of Hershel Walker, while throwing for touchdowns at the clip of Peyton Manning. He was the first 30/20 man. He broke the record (at the time) for passer efficiency record (still in top 10) I think you're trolling -- if anything, statistics were his thing in college.

For example, many have opined thatt he does not "have the body" of a tight end. It is your judgment that it "means nothing" to talk of "having the body," but it was one of the reasons I was skeptical back then that he should just instantly declare himself a tight end and switch positions. Here, I pointed out he has the body of a middle linebacker to illustrate that he does not actually have the body of a tight end. But I understand -- you think the body is irrelevant. Good -- he doesn't have the body of a TE and he's going out for TE. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

If we are going to do something idiotic like take Trevor out around the goal line, I'd rather replace him with someone that has quickness (a la Mike Vick or Kordell Stewart type player).

The anti-Tebow crowd can sling the base, personal insults but Race Bannon is cleaning you up in the debate. Race stays polite and on point while the anti-Tebow dodges from one insult to the next. If Tebow shows up in practice like Race shows up in here, particularly if the level of competition is equivalent, then Tebow is making the starting 11.

Yeah, I mean twisting what people say or adding something they didn't actually say shows a lot. Also, saying Tebow would make a great MLB just because he has the body is hilarious (since he never showed any MLB skills), not to mention his hilarious attempt at trying to block on a punt play. Put any MLB in the league to do the same and they won't look as pathetic. Saying "the fact that Tebow has the body to be a MLB means nothing" ≠ body doesn't matter/is irrelevant.

Race, having multiple accounts is technically against the code of conduct, just so you know.
I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

I don't think Tebow is going to make the team. I don't think he's going to beat out the 4 other TEs on the roster.
