absolutley not pass rusher first. I don't think QB is high on the list. From what i've read i'm not sure he will pan out in the nfl in the first place never mind being a first rnd pick.

If the Patriots are interested in him, then the Cleveland Browns are going to trade up to get him.

Alot of people here are going to be surprised with Tebows NFL production. Your getting a great athlete who works hard and will do what it takes to succeed. He may never play here but hes going to have a good career.

I can't imagine investing even a 2nd rounder on Tebow. I mean, talent-wise he'd be worth maybe a late 2nd rounder, but how exactly would we use him? We either take snaps away from Brady, or we stick him at TE and ignore him a la Watson/Baker, or what exactly?

No interest in Tebow at all, unless he can be converted to play DE, OLB, ILB, OG, OC, WR, or RB.

I don't profess to being a competent enough talent evaluator to properly determine Tebow's rightful place in the NFL nor do have any idea of whether or not he'd be a good fit for the team that BB is trying to assemble. Thus my qualifier that if he's deemed good by BB then I don't have a problem with it.

Agree 100%. Adding to this, I also never want to see TB12 hurried/knocked down as much as he has, so upgrading the OLine is on my Day 1 list of "wants." Tim Tebow is not nearly the right pick for us on Day 1 (Rds 1 & 2). I'd be OK taking him anytime after that.

Fair enough.

For what position again? A first round pick needs to be playing. Can he play TE?

I'd say that would be a horrendous move. Build from the lines out, right?

Amen! Ya had me at hello!

Eveybody was saying we were signing Vick. For some reason these "experts" are trying to force home the opinion the Patriots want and need a run and gun quarterback to run this wildcat crap.

Tebow also has tons of question marks from many. Some don't even think he'll make an NFL roster never mind 1st round pick of the New England Patriots.
