Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

I think it's funny that this even remains a question.
Tim Tebow is going NOWHERE.
He is a Superstasr, the Face of the Franchise as a great character guy, and oh-by-the-way, he's a great football player.
Tim Tebow is just unique, and for all the things people say he can't do, he has a bunch of qualities that say he can, and he flat out knows how to win games.
He is finishing year two of a five year rookie contract, and he will start at a minimum of the next two seasons, period.
The fans would absolutely revolt, and Elway would put himself in a PR nightmare...if Elway cut or traded Tebow and Tebow succeeds elsewhere, Elway looks like a moron...not to mention the pressure that would be brought to bear on Tebow's successor, presumably an Elway draft pick.
Ryuan Tannehill?
Nick Foles?
Breandon Weeden??
...and that's the thing, Elway is not stupid, and he knows this 'Tebow Thing' has to play itself out on the field as the Broncos starting QB.
So his trade value is irrelevant, because he is NOT going to be traded, won't happen.
I'd have to agree with that. Besides that point, there's the fact that we'll be picking in the last half of the 1st round. Luck and RG3 will be gone in the first 3 picks. Are we gonna ditch Tim for Barkley or Jones? I don't think so.

Better to draft Kellen Moore to be the backup, IMO, and go all in with Tebow.
I know they could get Jacksonville's first round pick for Tebow. Did you see that Monday Night Game last week? More seats than fans. He would pack that stadium from day one. I don't want to lose him because I like him, but his worth, especially in Jacksonville, is very high.
Doubtful they'd give up on Gabbert after one season, even if they'll have a new head coach, but the Jaguars did have a chance to draft Tebow in 2010. They passed on him, so I doubt they'd want him now. Even if he fills seats.
Heard the talking heads on ESPN yesterday, talking about a TT trade, since he is winning and leading the team as well as developing as an "NFL" QB, do you think other teams are gaining interest in him?
The more we win, and I feel the division title is within reach, what would his tade value be in terms of draft choices?
Personally with what I have seen I would hope Elway has seen enough to be a believer and willing to build the team with TT as our QB.

Also watched the playoff game between Northern Iowa and MT. last night. Dan Moore a 235 lb RB looked good for a FA pick next year. (provided he is a senior)
i saw some of that too. I recall Northern Iowa being demolished and their quarterback isn't worth a damn
