All true....time will tell. Be curious to see what round he gets picked in.

Key to Tebow's success will be if he gets drafted by a good enough team where he can be second string for a couple of years and work on his mechanics. his catapult motion is what will limit him in the NFL if he can't fix it.

But, if Byron leftwich can be a NFL starter for at least a few years, so can Tim Tebow

Tebow should be fine in the NFL and probably as a QB, he works hard, is smart and is a proven winner with a good head on his shoulders. I would draft him in the second round and laugh all the way to the bank, if he slipped to the third round it could be the best steal of the draft. The things being said about him now are the same things said about him when he arrived a Florida.

Remember Ryan Leaf vs Peyton Manning many thought Leaf to be a better choice, he had a better arm, was bigger, stonger but mentally Peyton was the man and in the NFL that is pretty important. Is he NFL ready now probably not but with a little work he could be, Florida didn't just throw him they got him some playing time before handing him the reins and it worked out pretty good for them.

:-) To borrow a line from a Trace Adkins song : Hate to see him go but love to watch leave.

I really like Tebow as well, and think he is a great role model. But i got this sneaking feeling he wont be all that great as a quarterback in the NFL. What I think will happen is he will get switched to RB.

Wonder what kind of hands he has got? Not out of the question for him to be used as a tight end if he can catch the ball.

He's Definitely Big & Strong Enough To Be a Tight End; I Would Love To See Him Make It At QB, Though!:-)

Definitely!:-) Everyone Talks about Changing Tebow's Throwing Motion So He Doesn't Lower His Arm when Passing. A Lot Of NFL QBs Don't Have Perfect form, Either, & They Do OK!:-)
