Tebow traded to the Jets – Fantasy Take


Tim Tebow may be the most popular non starter in the NFL but he is exactly that, a non starter and the same should go for your fantasy roster.  Never has a situational quarterback been a viable fantasy starter and I doubt Tebow will be the first.
Yes, this circus would have been too much for a backup quarterback. But that’s not what Tebow is. He’s not a No. 1 quarterback, either. Tebow is the New York Jets’ starting publicity stunt. He’s just for show.  More…
This is what the last pick in your
fantasy draft looks like with his
shirt off.
Shacks’ Take: Since the J-E-T-S Jets Jets Jets, plan on using Tebow as a wildcat quarterback, Tebow will likely have more value than any back up QB in NFL history.  Still there is no way to count on a QB who isn’t the primary starter, it means you will have to rely on TD’s for production and QB’s are much too valuable to employ one that may score you zero points on a weekend.
Your QB needs to be the rock of your team scoring at least 13 points a week with some games scoring 20 points.  Using a QB that has the potential to score 20, 0, 6, 13 then 2 points a week is way too risky. 
Tebow should only be drafted as a back up if you have one of the big guns like Brady or Rodgers or as a QB#3 if you can’t get one of the top QB’s and might need to platoon the position over the season.
Really the only reason to draft him is if you want to stash him in case he becomes the starter and gains value or if you want to get some God in your life.
