The quarterback is set to throw for the Buffalo Bills and Seattle Seahawks after his Pro Day. Joe Fortenbaugh
Now that the first three days of free agency are in the books, we can resume our daily coverage of “Tebow Mania.”
The former Heisman Trophy winner will unveil his new passing mechanics to the world on March 17 during Florida’s pro day. Tebow has been in the process of changing his throwing motion and improving his delivery to make himself more “NFL-ready.”
Two teams that are already expressing interest in the former Florida Gator include the Buffalo Bills and Seattle Seahawks, who have lined up individual workouts for Tebow after his pro day, according to Gil Brandt of NFL.com.
As of the current moment, the Seahawks hold the sixth and 14th picks in the first round, while the Bills will be drafting ninth. All three picks are too early in the draft to consider using on Tebow.
Arguably the most popular player in college football history, Tebow has been working out with Noel Mazzone (Arizona State offensive coordinator) and Marc Trestman (head coach, Montreal Alouettes) in preparation for his pro day on the 17th.
While his mechanics are clearly the primary focus of his pro day preparation, let’s hope Tebow’s attention to the air doesn’t take away his skills on the ground.

Sure Felicelli, Tebow is loser! And he better work on his ground skills because his body of work is less than spectacular on that.

Should we talk about his won loss record?
Whatever, if that upsets the team, boy are they digging for material. That is just about as annoying as the grads from Ohio State use "The Ohio State". Get a life.
I think Tebow will come around, he's got all the right stuff.

Shortening his delivery will not make him NFL-ready. He will be slightly more applicable to the NFL game, but the real problem is when his first option is not there. He is totally inept at going through progressions at the speed required to succeed at the NFL level. He will need several years to make that improvement in his game. Teams that draft him prior to the 4th round are doing it for PR. Poor mechanics and poor arm skills cannot be made up for in high character and intangibles. They just make you feel bad for him when he fails.
