If were in that mode then everyone better hope Colt comes out banging. Otherwise we are screwed. Which is why I'd rather pick a QB high in this yrs draft and if he's the best QB we have play him if not he has a yr to get up to speed in order to replace JC.
No one has come out with any decent idea as to what we will be doing after 2010 when JC hits the road. I keep hearing we can draft a QB next year. Yeah, that makes sense when we will be down farther in the draft and will essentially picking up or reaching for a lesser talented QB like a Tebow or McCoy late in the first round. JC was a reach and you see we are still 5yrs later trying to develope him. Colt has had 2 yrs and yes I'm counting injuries. I'm all for getting the supporting cast but it does no good when your General sucks. Remember Custer.

Actually remember that either Colt or Grossman would be left out. It is a pretty dicey situation but worse comes to worse you could apply the tranistion tag to JC or find a veteran to bring in. The team is 2 or 3 years away from competing anyway but at the same time we have a heavy emphasis on the run so Tebow won't be left out in the cold. I think though that he will develop faster then people think but all of this could be moot. Personally Tebow reminds me of a shorter and more wholesome version of Big Ben.
Also remember that Flacco and Ben had pretty smooth transitions from the spread in college so while the spread offense is a deterent it's still not a deal breaker especially when it comes to early success.
