first off it cost the pats nothing to bring him over. he has a great work ethic and is someone any team woyld like to have motivating players. also josh mcdaniels(pats O cordinator) drafted tebow when he was head coach at broncos. tebow also spent last year wasted by rex ryan and the jets(division rival) so with all that and the potential he may have learned how to throw the ball... theres no risk other than foolish media hype(pats are very good at controling and humbling players) and the rewards could b very good. unfortunately he still cant throw a ball as well as even say vince wilfork and if it werent for his pure football skill, mostly running, id say there was a 0% chance he makes the 53 man team. belichick is a mastermind and may have a secret use for him but i am skeptical.
