Tim Tebow to have workout with Redskins
..snort.. Will they become the JesusSkins??

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/nfl-draft/report-tim-tebow-will-have-wor.html?wprss=redskinsinsider

On a day the Redskins locked up one quarterback, they're apparently preparing to work out another. The Redskins are one of five teams that have scheduled individual workouts with draft prospect Tim Tebow, according to the Sporting News.

Tebow participated in the University of Florida's pro day on Wednesday afternoon in Gainesville, Fla. With a variety of prospects on display, scouts and executives from most teams were on hand, as well as a handful of head coaches. Redskins Coach Mike Shanahan and General Manager Bruce Allen were not present, but they didn't need to be if they plan on viewing Tebow up-close at Redskins Park in the coming weeks.

Tebow will also workout with Buffalo, Cleveland, New England and Seattle, according to the report.

The former Heisman Trophy winner is not projected by most to be a first-round draft pick, but because he could go early in the second round, he reportedly will be invited to New York to attend the NFL draft next month.

The Redskins hold the draft's No. 37 pick, which could put them in prime position to select Tebow in the second round, if they choose. Working out for scouts and coaches Wednesday, Tebow unveiled a new throwing motion intended to erase concerns about his poor mechanics.

4. If the Browns take him, I'm done with the NFL
He makes Kurt Warner look like an atheist.

5. Like I said before, him going to the Pats will not surprise me at all.
Hope he doesn't, but I dunno....

6. Shanahan has made a lot of mistakes at QB since Elway retired
Bubby Brister, Brian Griese, then after he gets Jake Plummer playing to his potential, leading the Broncos to the AFC Championship Game, he runs him out for Jay Cutler.

9. He also did workouts with the Bills and Seahawks
Seahawks recently got Charlie Whitehurst from San Diego so we'll see where they go but perhaps they are still interested considering Whitehurst never threw a pass in a NFL regular season game.
