i thought when he was at denver he was massive... Had a good rookie year didn't he? Is it all the god stuff that has made him so disliked or is he rubbish??
I reckon its his persona that people dont like. I rate him highly as a QB. He took the Broncos to the playoffs, and won the Wildcard game as a rookie. Denver fans maintain they won DESPITE Tebow, but thats BS.
It seems like he'll be 3rd string QB on very little money, with no guaranteed bonus' or anything like that.
The thing he's got going for him is he's not that bad as a QB, certainly better than some current starters. And he's versatile.
The Pats could throw him on Special Teams, and also try a few Wildcat moves. Sure the other teams gonna know its a trick play, but I think the Pats will do it smarter and not always get him to run the ball. He has the skill to throw, which Rex Ryan never gave him the chance to do.
I doubt he'll move above Mallet on the depth chart though. I think his best bet is to get a little bit of positive exposure at the Patriots, and then try to get signed to a lower placed side further down the track.
