This was my suggestion to Greg Bedard on Twitter:

Jets release Tebow next year. BB signs him. LB/TE/FB....That's my prediction. Whachoo think?”

To which he responded:

"Wouldn't surprise me at all"

He went on to defend it in several tweets.

Basically my thinking is: 1)BB loves the kid. 2)The Jets have trashed his starting QB potential 3) No matter what the guy with two Phallic names (Woody Johnson) says they will cut him. 4) He's a great teammate 5)He's a great versatile football player 6) There will be no QB controversy in NE

I'm not against it. Kid's a good football player with talent and heart. He'd be worth a look, but the only issue I would see is money. How much do you want to tie up in something like that when there will be other needs to focus on? The Tebow name comes with a premium attached to it.

I see no place for him on this team.

OTOH, if Colin Klein falls to a UDFA, or with an extra 7th round pick, I'm all for it.

Not. Gonna. Happen.

I like Tebs but he's not an experienced FB or LB and as a QB he's not useful here because our O is rightly designed around TFB. So why would BB waste a spot on the 53? Bedard & the OP are nuts. Sorry PATSNUTME.

Tebow belongs in JAX

I'll be honest. I don't see Tebow as being a fit for this team because of the media circus he brings with him. Tebow falls into the Terrell Owens/Chad Johnson category when it comes to that sort of thing. I disliked Tebow and his antics when he was in college and that hasn't changed.

mayoclinic

Both correct. Some other considerations:

1. Tebow's pretty much been ruled out as a QB by every respected QB evaluator in the business. His mechanics just aren't there. So what to you bring him in as? Not as a 3rd string QB? As your #5 TE with no prior experience? As a FB? RB? He has no position.

2. He's not PS eligible to work on developing him at a new position, and all the media circus and baggage that he brings makes that difficult.

3. He comes with a relatively big contract for a guy who can't get on the field. It's a complicated cap situation, but IIRC I think his 2013 cap hit is something like $2M - not huge, but a non-trivial amount for a guy who probably won't see much playing time. Compare that with a late round/UDFA who might get on the PS and have time to develop without being under the microscope, and without all the baggage.

The negatives far outweigh the positives IMHO. I've never been a Tebow fan, but trying to block out my bias, I still can't see it.

I'll concur on the lack of any useful position for the Pats.

He really should head down to Jax. They love him there and he'll help get rid of the big black tarp fan.

Bottom line - he is a WINNER - will work anywhere he is given a shot - no matter what capacity.
