10 NFL Teams Who Have Said No Thanks to Adding Tim Tebow in 2013

phil eagles It's a new era in Philadelphia, with new head coach Chip Kelly and it looks as if he found his new quarterback to take Michael Vick's place. The Eagles traded up in the fourth round to land USC's Matt Barkley and will eventually be the Eagles future quarterback. By taking Barkley, that all but eliminated them from pursuing Tebow, and Kelly spoke as to why they are not interested in him.
€œIn this league you need to be able to throw the football, and that€™s the first skill set that we€™re looking for,€ Kelly said Saturday, via Frank. €œRepetitive accuracy is the No. 1 quality we€™re looking for.€
Some felt that Barkley's skill set wasn't a fit in Philadelphia, yet they made him a priority on Day 3 of the NFL Draft. Mostly because Barkley can actually throw with some consistency. While Tebow, can not.
