Your special

IDK about anyone else but I didnt like the way Bortles threw the short passes. He was throwing floaters. Some passes he threw Saturday are picked off in this league. I hope he improves on that and his footwork.

He scored higher than your Teddy on the Wonderlic.

We are not pretending to be peachy but having optimism is ok. No one on here is saying Blake is a HOFer... Most of us are simply saying that we like the pick and are HOPING it turns into a great pick.

 

You being pessimistic all the time is just down right dumb.

Quote:I think Bortles would have gone to Cleveland at 4 actually.

 

If for some crazy chance that they didn't draft him, the very next pick (Oakland) would have drafted Bortles.  All those teams needed QBs.

 

We did the right thing staying put.

 I agree, they traded back immediately after we took him (Bortles) - that's a strong indicator that their guy was off the board.

Dumb?  I have seen a lot of your posts and threads you have started and you are not the sharpest tool in the shed yourself! He had a higher wonderlic score better than Teddys but thats not saying much!  Dont think "dumb" could pull this!

Swaguars, exactly what does Blake do that makes you think he is an idiot? If you want to call somebody stupid, you need to have a good reason for it, and nobody sees one for Blake Bortles.

Have we established a nick-name yet? If not, I'll come back in about another 20pages.

He just seems slow in a lot of the interviews I've seen him in, I'm not really saying he's stupid but perhaps not as quick witted as you'd want a QB to be.

You have absolutely no basis to call me stupid. I don't sit on the forum fixing every small grammar/spelling mistake I make because it doesn't matter. 

Don't confuse quick witted, snappy response, fast comeback with someone that actually thinks before answering.

There is a big difference between the "Rock Star, it's all about me type answer" and some more grounded in their remarks.

 

I understand your not happy with the selection, but it is what it is and we move forward.

Every little perceived flaw called into attention is a natural response, but it is time to move ahead.

Don't even remember making that post then I blindly backed it up when questioned about it later lol. 

For those that don't know Blake's g/f is Lindsey Duke, they have been dating since h/s, so he is smart enough to find one that isn't a gold digger and hot.  A quick google search hit count has Lindsey in a comfortable lead at 19.8 million over Blake's 8.2 million results.....

So, someone who is measured in their responses, and thinks before speaking is considered slow witted to you?  I guess we should defer to you on this since you're clearly the subject matter expert.
