Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
This from an item in which Cimini noted that Tebow will be one of the most closely watched players in the NFL. ... Meanwhile, there has been considerable speculation and commentary on Tebow's likely role. The Jets say he's the No. 2 quarterback and will be used in the wildcat package. They haven't divulged any specifics, but Cimini believes it'll probably be closer to the read-option offense he ran in Denver than a true Wildcat, which is a direct snap to a running back. Coaches have maintained Tebow could get up to 20 snaps a game -- although they haven't said whether that includes special teams or when he lines up at positions other than QB. Santonio Holmes told the NFL Network earlier this week that a two-QB system won't work. ... Bottom line? It's going to be a very interesting trainning camp for the Jets. Especially Sanchez.
