An Idea: Tebow in Purple?

By John Dame (johnsdame@comcast.net)

The Baltimore Ravens have always prided themselves on drafting the "best player on the board". Therefore, will they take former University of Florida QB Tim Tebow with the No. 25 pick?

Wide receiver is obviously the Ravens' top need, but the NFL will be more than a month into free agency by the time of the draft. There's certainly a possibility they will have already filled that need by draft day.

Tebow would not be drafted by the Ravens as a quarterback; it is more likely he would be an "H-Back" for the team. In effect, that would make him a combination of a tight end and a fullback.

Here's why Tebow is a possibility: Cam Cameron.

Cameron is one of the most inventive offensive minds in the National Football League: he can really put together a creative way to use Tim Tebow. The Ravens often use Chris Chester as an additional tight end, and it is likely that Tebow would take Chester's place in that set-up. He would also be effective in various wildcat set-ups due to his size and his experience as a top-flight college quarterback.

Regardless of your opinion of Tebow, he's an athlete and a weapon. If you're an NFL team, any additional weaponry is welcome.
