Jacksonville is the only team I could see taking Tebow in the first two rounds and this is largely to fill their stadium with Gator fans as much as it might be to win games.
I'd love having Tebow and Vince Young in our division - two guys who are better runners than passers. Sure, they win a lot of games but the NFL is quite a bit different and that little jump pass and QB draw shit isn't going to cut it amongst the big boys. Plus, Tebow now has a concussion in his history.
As a GM, I wouldn't touch the guy. But if I ran a Florida-based team in a bad economy that had to put a tarp over half their seats just to pretend to have a sellout, I'd snatch that money machine up in a hurry and ride that wave all the way to the bank. He'd be worth the money and some coach might just be able to teach him how to throw a pass someday.
