Where does Tebow end up going?

[LnGrrrR]

My question is, what would the Broncos get back for him? If they could pull a 1st rnd pick, the trade would be worth it.

[Spurtacus]

Jaguars would be stupid to not get Tebow. Even if he is for the next five years he will sell out each home game and so much more.

But this is not fake. Im am hearing the Jags are close to making this happen.

(Tebow to Jacksonville)

[JMarkJohns]

Jags should offer Gabbert for Tebow and a 2nd. Gabbert learns behind Manning for a few years, and Tebow starts for Jacksonville and the Jags gain an additional early pick to surround him with a good offensive line/weapons.

No way Broncos give up a 2nd rounder for Gabbert. Gabbert or Henne could certainly be dealt though and if I was the Broncos I would put a young QB behind Peyton to develop.

Tim Tebow is being allowed to pick the team he wants to go to. He picks the trade. Jets or Jacksonville.

[Ryan Fitzpatrick]

He should go to Jax, no doubt about it. He's already a hero in Northern Florida, and Jacksonville might actually sell some upper-level tickets for once. They have a good young defense and arguably the best RB in the game--MJD led the league in rushing despite having the worst starting QB and facing 8 and 9 man fronts every down. They don't have any receivers, but then again he doesn't really throw that much. Perfect fit.

The Jets' situation is completely ed--that team is going to tear itself apart this year at the first sign of trouble.

Exactly why Jets wanted him...change the culture. But I agree Jax is a better fit.

No more putting tarps up and blocking parts of the stadium..

Denver has agreed to trade Tim Tebow and a seventh-round pick to the Jets for the NY's fourth-round pick and a sixth-round pick.

[Ryan Fitzpatrick]

I'm going to thoroughly enjoy watching the New York Jets this season. I hope to God they have a start like Philly did last year.

@ the Jets. What a sorry ass franchise.

@ the Jets. What a sorry ass franchise.

They're destined to be the Giants' little brother forever

Tebow ends up going to .

[RGMCSE]

I know this is after the fact but Thank goodness the jets were dumb enough to make this trade. Imho, Jaguars owner Shahid Khan put his foot in his mouth a few months ago when reporters asked him if he would've drafted tebunk. Khan said yes he would have.

Now this whole Manning scenario happens and Tebow becomes available. I think that Shahid Khan was saving face and fronting like they wanted tebow, but weren't really trying. It was merely an atempt to appease the "tobowites".

Some misnomers that I would like to clarify. Getting Tebow in Jville may have sold some tickets but not much. Not enough to take off those tarps. You need to remember that the capacity of that stadium is right around 77000. Currently with the tarps the blackout number is around 55000 per game. If you take off the tarps you need to sell atleast 68000 just to lift the blackout. Sorry but maybe getting tebow would have solved the ticket issue a few games but not long term. The issue is not totally a lack of ticket sells. Its the size of the stadium. It's too damn big. Everbank field was originally the "Gator Bowl". When this stadium was rebuilt for the Jaguars the city required that the stadium would be able to seat enough fans for the annual Georgia/Florida game. For that game they add an additional 12000 bench seats to make the capacity somewhere around 90000 in attendance. This is why the stadium is that size. Sorry but any small market team is gonna have trouble selling an average of 68000 tickets every game just to lift the blackout. Thats why the tarps were placed over some 10000 seats to lower the blackout number.

So this idea that Tebow would have solved the Jaguars ticket issues is bogus. First of all the tarps are not permanent but they are long term. Meaning that the Jaguars dont struggle on a week to week basis weather to remove the tarps or not. Esentially there really isnt a ticket selling "issue" The Jaguars did not have one blackout last year. The tarps are there to keep the blackout number lower and more manageable. In the fututre if the jags start having sustained success then the organisation can make the decision to remove the tarps. However once you do that the blackout number rises due to the rising capacity of seats.

I used to be a Jaguars season ticket holder for 3 years and three years prior to that I would purchase 3 game packs. So I know what kind of fan base is there. I've flown to Jville to catch a game since moving back to SA and noticed that the fan base is becoming younger which is a good sign. It means all the kids that were growing up with the Jags since the inception of the franchise have now become STH's. The problem is that the college football fan in Jacksonville is mammoth. They are exactly that Gator fans. They scream when the Jaguars don't draft gators. When the Jags do draft gators they say we didn't draft the right ones. Then they that the Jags don't draft enough SEC players. In other word nothing is ever good enough. They've promised that if we get this Gator or that Gator they would buy tickets. Yet it doesn't happen. I don't trust these fans and they are not true Jaguars fans. So when I here people or media saying that getting tebow would solve the Jaguars ticket issues, it's maddening and yet funny. It's a circus and it would get way worse that it ever was in Denver. I'm so freaking happy tebow is a Jet.

Youre re ed. Tebow isnt just any Gator, hes a God down there. He may not be a very good QB but as far as drawing crowds not many players can compete with him.

Jets trade Tebow to Jags?

[RGMCSE]

The thing is that I've been there and seen it first hand. These Gator fans are all talk. They dont support but college football. Do you remember a college QB named Matt Jones? When the Jags drafted that coke head in the first round at WR the whole ing state of Arkansas was claiming this guy to be a god a beast and would sell tickets due to the SEC and Arkansas faithful. It never happened.

I'll agree with you that Tebow is not just another gator but it would only be a matter of time before the gator faithful showed their true colors. Tebow in Jacksonville would never work because any failure would be unbearable and unacceptable and the team would be responsible not Tebows ty QB play. Do you understand? The Gator fans are all talk and or not for the Jaguars they are only for tebow. So how the does that benefit the Jaguars? A ty QB with unbearable idiot fans???

[DMC]

What a ty world we live in when people want a team to buy a ty player just because he's popular. I realize it's a business first and foremost, but why shelve your chances at winning? Who the wants to play on a team that doesn't give a about winning (except Kevin Love)?
