Tebow is a little like Fischer in one way. Arguments about Fischer's place in the chess pantheon tend to get very heated because his career is so unlike practically any other great 20th century player. So depending on what you focus on you can make a pretty good case for him as the GOAT (Greatest of All Time) or barely top 10.

Tebow is more perplexing if anything. One of the greatest college football players of all time, a very good runner (though I think both Michael Vick and Cam Newton are better), all those comebacks. Terrific close to the goal line and in short yardage. If you look up intangibles in the dictionary you'd find his picture.

But...as a passer he's not even average for a backup NFL QB. He's awful. I remember someone posting his passing statistics for the last five games he played last year (including the playoff win over the Steelers). They were almost laughably bad. You would expect anyone playing that way to get benched, if not cut. The Broncos lost four of those five games.

Tebow seems to be an incredibly hard worker, and quite smart. I saw a quote from someone saying as a rookie he knew more about other teams' defenses than any rookie the guy had ever seen. So I imagine his problems as a passer don't stem from lack of effort.

He's actually above-average at throwing long passes. But at every other kind of throw that NFL quarterbacks have to make, he's beyond bad (by NFL standards). Practically every kid in America throws a football at some point; the 32 or so who are best at it wind up as starting quarterbacks in the NFL. Maybe Tebow just isn't one of those 32, and never will be.

In which case, what is he? Not even someone you'd want to be your #2 QB, especially given his rabid fanbase that would want him in the second your starting QB threw an interception. He's a wildcat QB, maybe a good TE or H-back if he is willing to be. If that's right, then a fourth-round pick seems about right, maybe a little high (I think the Broncos and Jets agreed to exchange late-round picks).

I do agree the deal doesn't make a lot of sense for the Jets. As I'm sure you know, though, Tony Sparano is their offensive coordinator, and he some success with the Wildcat in Miami. I'm sure Tebow could run it better than Ronnie Brown. It will never be the Jets' main offense though; it was never Miami's.

Ans: Joe Mauer.

Mauer is a three-time batting champion (and best BA, OBP, and slugging average in 2009) with a lifetime .320 batting average. Pretty darn good for a catcher, and a very good defensive one at that.

An odd defense from Syracuse, that zone. It looks as if they leave a man unguarded near the basket on the post, but it turns out to be tough to get the ball to the guy (#40 for Wisconsin). But I thought the Wisconsin player could have been moving around a lot more, trying to get really open.

So we come full 'circle'...
