My biggest problem with him isn't that he can't throw. He's not overly accurate, but that's not as much of a headache as his need to be a power runner. Guys are bigger in the NFL and that's a good way to get injured if you're not big enough to take the kind of beating that would be required of a power back. I'm afraid if someone selects Tebow to play Q, they'll spend much of their time wondering how his throwing shoulder gave out so early.

Not to be argumentative, but I'm not sure "power running" is a necessity at the QB position; his rushing numbers aren't too shabby (after 3 years, 475 attempts - 2,037 yards - 43 TD's). And at 6'3", 245, he's not exactly a welterweight. I think he can take a hit or two....
