He's basically Jamarcus Russell with a bit less upside and we all know where he went in the draft.

The only way this comment makes any sense to me is if you are looking at what we have learned about Russell over the past few years. Leading up to the draft, this guy was viewed as a physical freak who had improved by leaps and bounds every month as a starter.

Tebow has been viewed as a limited quarterback for the past two years, with each additional game validating that opinion. Furthermore, he plays in a system that is doing him no favors in terms of preparing him for the pros. Good athlete, great intangibles, but no reason to think that he was even a 2nd rounder at QB if you were just looking at him as a "pure" pocket passer.
