As another consideration, I think the economics of the NFL have changed as well. There was a time when a team could sit a guy like Young behind a Montana for a couple of years. Not anymore. Every team is looking for the RGIII, Luck, or Wilson to get them going right out of the gate. If you have a really good QB playing number two to your starter, teams will be coming after him and you'll have to pay him. The economics don't work anymore. Tebow had his shot. Will he get another? I doubt it.
