Tim ran a 4.7 in his first attempt and a 4.72 in his second attempt – pretty good numbers for a quarterback who weighs 236 pounds. There’s no question that Tebow is the most athletic quarterback going into the draft. He didn’t do the bench press and didn’t throw, but all his other performance numbers are great. I think through the first few days of the Combine here, Tim has definitely improved his draft stock. A lot of teams move guys up and down their boards based on these numbers. We’ve even seen players sky rocket because of a good Combine – Matt Jones, Darius Heyward-Bey, etc.

Here’s the video of his first attempt.

Tim Tebow NFL Combine Recap http://www.tebowzone.com/2010/03/tim-tebow-nfl-combine-recap/ http://www.tebowzone.com/2010/03/tim-tebow-nfl-combine-recap/#comments Mon, 01 Mar 2010 11:57:39 +0000 David http://www.tebowzone.com/?p=664 Tim Tebow has been working hard in Indianapolis the past few days at the NFL Combine. Remember, he isn’t throwing for scouts – he’s waiting until the Florida Pro Day to unveil his new throwing motion. But, Tim was out there running the 40, doing vertical leaps and long jumps. Tebow unofficially ran the 40-yard dash at the scouting combine in 4.7 and 4.72 seconds, good times for a quarterback. His official 40 times will be revealed later, but the 4.7-second figure was his clocked time on NFL Network’s exclusive coverage of the combine workouts. Tebow also posted a vertical leap of 38.5 inches, tying Josh McCown for the best ever by a quarterback.

Here is a video shot by CBS from the Combine of Tim being interviewed about his throwing motion.

And here are some pictures taken during his workouts.

Update: Tim Tebow will not throw at Combine http://www.tebowzone.com/2010/02/update-tim-tebow-will-not-throw-at-combine/ http://www.tebowzone.com/2010/02/update-tim-tebow-will-not-throw-at-combine/#comments Tue, 23 Feb 2010 00:15:30 +0000 David http://www.tebowzone.com/2010/02/update-tim-tebow-will-not-throw-at-combine/ I said in an earlier post that Tim Tebow will be throwing at the NFL Combine – well, that’s not accurate. We just found out today that Tim has been working on a new delivery and will unveil it at UF’s Pro Day… not the NFL Combine. Tim will work out, do interviews, etc at the combine he just won’t throw in front of scouts.

“I’m not changing who I am or how I approach football,” Tebow said Sunday night from Nashville, Tenn., where he has been busy remaking the style that was good enough to win one Heisman Trophy and two national championships at Florida.

“But there are things that I can get a lot better at — my fundamentals. I’ve never been asked to shorten or quicken my release and not have a loop in it. The changes I’m making have gone very well and it’s becoming more and more natural to me.”

Tim has been working with former NFL Offensive Coordinator Zeke Bratkowski and several other coaches on improving his mechanics. He’s gone from bringing the ball down by his hip to keeping it up by his shoulder. This is extremely important for a quarterback to succeed in the NFL.

Asked if he would have embarked on such an extensive and exhausting process had his performance at the Senior Bowl not been so roundly criticized, Tebow said: “Probably, just because of the quarterback coaches I’ve been working with. I want to get better. I want to be around people who will push me. I will do anything to get better. Without hearing the criticism, I would have done it.

“It’s made me more confident, more accurate. And that’s not to say I haven’t had this type of coaching in the past. I just have had different coaching than this NFL style.”

Can’t wait to see Tim Tebow 2.0 on March 17.
