BLUE 1,026 Posted June 10, 2013 Per Rotoworld.com: Patriots signed QB Tim Tebow, formerly of the Jets.To clear roster space, they waived Mike Kafka, paving the way for Tebow to win New England's third-string quarterback job behind Tom Brady and Ryan Mallett. Tebow will be at Patriots minicamp on Tuesday. The connection is obvious; OC Josh McDaniels traded up for Tebow at the 25th overall pick while running the Broncos' football operations in 2010. We're assuming Tebow will primarily play quarterback, but he could also be tried at H-back or tight end while Rob Gronkowski (arm, back) rehabs. Of course, we won't hold our breath for McDaniels and Bill Belichick to reveal their specific plans. Jun 10 - 5:06 PM Source: Ed Werder on Twitter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dutch 874 Posted June 10, 2013 No, set aside all jokes, if anyone could find if there is a place for Tebow in the NFL, it would be Belichick. This will be interesting to follow. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AllYouNeedIsLovie 377 Posted June 10, 2013 Where does Tebow fit on the roster? They already have Gronk, Hernandez, Ballard and Fells. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted June 10, 2013 honestly, if Belichick can talk Tebow out of playing QB (which is a big if since nobody else has been able to) I think he could do a lot for the Patriot's offense, if not he's not making the regular season roster as anything better than the 3d QB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glanvilles Grits 142 Posted June 10, 2013 Well, this was a surprise today. I'll be interested to see how this all shapes up and turns out heading toward camp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BLUE 1,026 Posted June 10, 2013 Per Rotoworld.com: ESPN's Chris Mortensen confirms Tim Tebow will be a quarterback with the Patriots.Per Mort, Tebow will enter Tuesday's minicamp as New England's third-string QB, behind Tom Brady and Ryan Mallett. Despite previous rumors otherwise, Tebow is not being tried at tight end, although it would be in Tebow's best interests to be open to playing any position. He's avoided trying tight end in the past. Obviously, Tebow is not going to be a major threat for playing time behind future Hall of Famer Brady and young, strong-armed backup Mallett. The Pats may be simply kicking the tires on the former Josh McDaniels draft pick. Jun 10 - 5:49 PM Source: Chris Mortensen on Twitter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch 874 Posted June 10, 2013 Ryan Mallet has #15 right? QB CONTROVERSY!! Who am I kidding... Belichick don't play that shit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rzb+ 367 Posted June 10, 2013 And the saga continues. My guess is they'll develop him up then trade him off. Pats invest in potential future trades better than any team in the NFL. Plus they're doing it for way cheaper than McDaniels did the first time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vin+ 3,121 Posted June 10, 2013 Of course the Pats sign him. It's also hilarious that he still won't play anything other than QB. I hope he's not rewarded by his stubbornness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadcastinMayne 2 Posted June 11, 2013 Yes this will be very intresting to watch but i feel there wont be much Tebow time in New England other than sidelines and off the field interviews. Don't understand why Bill brought the circus to town but i've come to learn and respect everything this man does. One of the best to be in the organization. Seems like he never has wasted talent and when he does there not in New England very long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
East495 55 Posted June 11, 2013 LoL..oh lawd! Leave it to Belichick to make an out-of-the-box move. He’s going to get something out of Tebow. Watch and see! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the Lions fan 19 Posted June 11, 2013 As a fan, I like this signing. 3rd stringer who can contribute to trick/unconventional plays for the Pats. Good no nonsense place with some of the best tutelage you could ask for for Tebow. Good things can come from mutually beneficial situations. Although I imagine he'll morph into a cheap draft pick over the next few years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
