Tebow Overhauls Mechanics For Pro-day

Tim Tebow, who has been widely criticized for  his weak arm, long slow throwing motion, and of course experience playing for an offense that does not resemble anything close to something that would work in the NFL, has brought in a slew of QB coaches in a last ditch effort to overhaul his throwing mechanics.  The list includes former NFL offensive coordinator Zeke Bratkowski, Montreal Alouettes head coach Marc Trestman, Arizona State’s new offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone and former NFL head coach Sam Wyche.   According to Tebow it is working, and he will put his new skills on display at Florida’s Pro day.

I have no doubt that this is working…It is raising his stock just enough that some stupid team, seduced by the recent success of the wild-cat, will take a chance on him in the 2nd or 3rd round, and they will end up with a tight end who has never blocked or caught anything other than the words of God.  Unless Dwight Freeney and Albert Hansworth are at the pro-day to chase Timmy around it will mean nothing.

If he is going to be consulting anyone, it should be the likes of former Gonzaga standout and 2006′s #3 overall NBA draft pick Adam Morrison, to see how he dealt with being drafted way to early for being the face of college basketball, with a big name, but no professional game.
