Big A Tebow To Ask NFL For His Draft Projection

Share
 

I think this is just a formality. I don't see him turning pro after his season is over.

Re: Tebow To Ask NFL For His Draft Projection

Yep, I agree. Great college qb, limited professional prospects, especially in this draft. I don't think he'll be real excited about that report.

Ouch!

I agree. Don't think the feedback is going to near encouraging enough for him to skip his senior year.

He could play fullback or linebacker.

I thought the same thing. My question was going to be is he checking the projection for QB or LB.

Re: Tebow To Ask NFL For His Draft Projection

I feel he would be a first round pick this year and it does not depend on what position he would play. Look at Matt Jones from Arkansas a few years ago. Tebow is a great athlete and would be picked because of that.

Re: Tebow To Ask NFL For His Draft Projection

He'll play on Sundays, and honestly, I think there's a good chance he plays QB. He's got a good arm, he's smart, and he's tough.

Even if he plays QB, he is not a first rounder, IMO...

Interesting comparison, but I am not sure it translates well in NFL terms:
Quote:
Jones made a name for himself at the NFL Combine where he measured in at a height of 6'6" and weighing 242 pounds and put up scores during the tests that showed speed and explosive ability that had not been seen before in a player of his size. These scores earned him the nickname "The Freak" from the coaches and athletes in attendance. These scores included being timed between 4.37 and 4.40 in the 40 yard dash, a 39.5 inch vertical jump, and a 10 foot 9 inch broad jump.

I had him pegged more as a kicker.
