It may not seem logical, but newly hired Jacksonville Jaguars general manager David Caldwell just did more to help Tim Tebow‘s career than anyone Tebow has been around in his three NFL seasons. Caldwell, in a few simple words, was completely forthright about Tebow’s lack of quarterbacking skill.

‘Elephant-in-the-room question’

On Thursday, when Caldwell was introduced to the Jacksonville media, he was asked the elephant-in-the-room question about Tebow, who currently is on the New York Jets’ roster. Would Caldwell be willing to bring Tebow home to Jacksonville, where he starred in high school and then traveled just down the road to Gainesville to help the University of Florida win two national championships?

“I can’t imagine a scenario where he would be a Jacksonville Jaguar,” Caldwell said.

A reporter, apparently dumbfounded by the directness of the response, even asked Caldwell to repeat that quote and Caldwell did.

‘Most mismanaged career’

Fact is, Caldwell just did Tebow a favor by conveying what so many others – including Rex Ryan, most recently – have refused to say: the way Tebow plays quarterback right now doesn’t work in the NFL.

Tebow is a good kid and obviously well-meaning. He’s the kind of person who may have been able to make the changes if he was told that this was the only way he could survive in the league. More than likely, though, it’s probably too late and Tebow’s only real hope of staying in the league is to shift to fullback or H-back or some other non-essential position.

That’s because, starting with the absurdly bad decision by former Denver coach Josh McDaniels to draft him in the first round, Tebow has suffered through perhaps the most mismanaged career in the history of the NFL. It has been so bungled that Tebow could be out of football in a few months if he doesn’t wise up.

Do you agree that Tim Tebow is not suited as an NFL QB? Why or why not?
