    No. Everyone acting like it's easy to pick up a position someone has never played before in 3 months.

    nope they will sign someone else. Tebow would have only played if this Hernadenz thing happened in the middle of the season say week 11 or something lik

    Assuming Gronk stops breaking his body anymore in the next year, he should be seen midway through.

    I hear what you are saying, and I too think people are running with this Tebow for TE thing really fast now, without any indication whatsoever from NE that this would happen.

    at the same time. to respond to your statement.

    there are people that could do it right? Like Antonio Gates a guy that didn't play college football and turned into a pro bowl and HOF WR "pretty easy"

    Yes, but it's extremely rare. It's already been stated that Tebow has a poor NFL IQ. Now the guy is going to step in and block and run routes? No way. Ballard will be my fantasy sleeper TE.

    I have to confess I'm in the dark about the Poor NFL IQ, that must be some advanced stat that Coaches in the NFL use for picking TE talent. You DO see alot of very smart X and O guys such as the aforementioned Gronk and A-Hernandez play the TE position

    It was said that Tebow struggled learning an NFL playbook and they had to dumb it down quite a bit. Granted, QB is the hardest position since you need to know what everyone is doing. He'd have to learn routes and blocking schemes. He'd prob be ok blocking, I don't seem him as a pass catching TE though. The guys who make the quick transitions tend to be basketball guys with great hands and feet. Tebow's foot work has been criticized by many NFL former QB analysts. He seems powerful, but clumsy. Not to mention the fact that Tebow has said a thousand times that he is a QB and will not play any other position.

    Tebow is a very heady player.

    There is no doubt in my mind Tebow would know the plays well and be a great route runner.

    I just dont know how good his hands are going to be.

    Don't forget Julian Edelman on the very same Patriots team we are discussing!

    But I agree with others, tight end is a more complicated position, with more responsibilities, and in addition to Tebow's lack of NFL capacity thus far you have a resistance on his part to play another position. And everyone is forgetting about Jake Ballard. Plus do we really know how much time Gronk is gonna miss? I'm hoping he's maybe on the PUP list but back for Week 7? We really have no idea I think.

    What really sucks is that they're ALSO working in a new slot guy in Amendola, replacing the ever-reliable and never-hurt pinball that was Wes Welker. And another new receiver in Michael Jenkins (assuming a rookie doesn't beat him out).

    Lot of uncertainty for my Pats. But even more reason Brady wins MVP when he throws for another 40 TDs w <10 INTs.

    I think it could happen.

    First of all, if anyone can handle a circus type atmosphere, it's Belichick.

    Second, the Patriots are known for thinking outside of the box. As mentioned before, they turned QB Julian Edelman into a decent wide receiver. Before that, in an emergency situation, they turned WR Troy Brown into a DB.

    It wouldn't surprise me at all if Tebow succeeded as a TE.

    Brady is getting old, he will be a TE next year. While Tebow will be the starting QB.
