Eagles linebacker Brandon Graham thinks current third-string quarterback Tim Tebow will be much more than the camp arm Mark Sanchez thought he would be this spring.
With all the attention on Sanchez and Sam Bradford competing for the No. 1 competition, there hasn't been that much attention on the former Heisman Trophy winner lately.
"Tim Tebow is going to shock a lot of people, because he is going to make the team," Graham told Detroit radio personality Lauren Beasley. "And I think he will play a lot."
It would be quite a hard road for him to be in contention for the main spot behind center, though many believe that his particular skill set could keep him on the roster this season.
Tebow was a duel-threat quarterback at Florida and during his short stint in the NFL, and his power-running ability could pose him as a distinct threat in some short yardage situations as a ball carrier.
But his future with the Eagles as a starting quarterback will only come in the event of injuries to both men currently in front of him on the depth chart. Which in Philadelphia would be the equivalent of a ten-alarm fire.
