During his time as a college football play he one the most prestigious award in college football the Heisman trophy. During his time at Florida he didn't only win the Heisman he also took his team to two national championships and two victories. After college Tim entered the NFL Draft where he was taken the 25th overall pick my the Denver Broncos.



  Tim started his career in Denver where he didn't start but ended up taking over about half way through season this is where he came in and lead the Broncos to a playoff berth. After this year the Broncos traded Tebow away to the Jets. He went to the Jets but only played in a few games until hewas eventually cut him.  was eventually cut him.
Finally though after sitting out for a whole year off football Tim Tebow has got his second chance. After being on the SEC network and following college football Tim Tebow has been called back to play for the Eagles. The Eagles has chosen to sign Tebow to a one year deal. This I feel is a good move and cant wait to see Tebow get another shot to prove what he can do.

Retirements around the League


During this years post season there has been some very big retirements that have impacted teams and is the end of eras. One of the first retirements that comes to mind just happened this week and it is the announcement that Troy Polamalu a star in the league for many years for the Pittsburgh Steelers is leaving the game. Troy has made his mark in the game and is leaving a long list of All pro awards and some Superbowl wins in his rear view mirror. This is and end of a long era for the Steelers and will be a very impactful retirement for the Pittsburgh defense which has been one of the best for many years in the league.
Another big retirement was the All Pro linebacker Patrick Willis for the San Francisco 49ers that has been a very big impact on the league and has been a stud for many years. This was a very surprising retirement because many people thought he would have a couple more great years left in him, but after fighting through injuries for the last couple of seasons he decided it was to much on his body and decided to leave. Although he is leaving he has made a large impact in the league and will always be remembered as one of the greats.

Although the number one pick is important in the draft the best part of the draft might be to see who is Mr. Irrelevant which is the last pick in the NFL Draft number 256.
