Tim Tebow was suppose to be the starter headed into training camp with the Denver Broncos. The Broncos were the from-outta-nowhere team that ended up with Peyton Manning, the off-the-radar Jets appeared to have done the same with Tim Tebow. the Jets traded a couple of late round picks early wednesday to aquire Tebow.Brocos vice president, John Elway had this to say about tebow,
"Our goal was to do the best thing for Tim and the Broncos, and I believe the opportunity that presented itself with the New York Jets accomplishes that objective," Elway said. "Tim made a lot of strides last year and has a very promising career ahead of him. If anyone is willing to put the work in to be great, it's Tim Tebow.
"I have a great deal of respect for Tim and the positive impact he makes both on the field and in the community. He has a bright future in this league, and I'm hopeful he will enjoy continued success with the Jets
"Tim Tebow deserves an enormous amount of credit for what he accomplished and how he carried himself during his time with the Broncos," he said. "From taking over a 1-4 team and leading it to the playoffs to energizing our fans and this community, Tim left an extraordinary mark on this organization. His time in Denver will always hold a special place in Broncos history."

That's a powerful quote by John elway, one of the best qb's in the history of the NFL.. He clearly believes Tebow has the tools needed to make it as a quarterback in this league. But now Tebow is on a team that has a franchise quarterback in Mark Sanchez as their leader. Tannenbaum made it clear that Sanchez was the starter The Jets GM also noted that, "every quarterback in the NFL has a backup and we just changed who ours is.
So what are the Jets' plans for Tebow? Could they choose to use him in the same versatile, non-conventional way they used Brad Smith. Mike Tannenbaum has stated in a news conference that head coach Rex Ryan believes in the wildcat package. We all know Tim Tebow is the best quarterback to have in place to run the wildcat. So he may get a significant amount of playing time.
God works in Mysterious ways. God is definetley on Tim Tebows side. So this may be a Bleesing for him to become a Jet. I wish him the best of luck and hope he has great success with the New York Jets.
