Quote:Same old TMD. Absurd expectations and silly comparisons. What's new? At least it's entertaining arguing with him.

 

My expectations aren't absurd. Yours are just too low.

You expect the Jaguars to go into FA with Gabbert as the only QB on the roster. Explain how that isn't absurd.

LOL, yeah, because having Henne on the roster instead, just makes it so much better....

 

Hint: they're both crap. 

 

And crap doesn't get better via quantity.

You're ignoring the point. I'm not saying he's a good QB. I'm saying that he's better than Gabbert, and you'd rather take one very bad QB into FA. Now you're deflecting. 

 

So, again, explain how having only Gabbert isn't absurd.

WHo the hell cares if you go into FA with only Gabbert??? They both suck anyway....

 

WOrst come to worst and you can always pick up a veteran QB of at least that sucky level after the draft if you deem you really need one. 

I'm not the only one who likes Vick in Jacksonville ..... I can hope !!!

It was merely a remote chance prior to the Henne signing.....its as close to zero chance as you can get, now.

You have to be kidding, TMD.

 

There's no guarantee that we get Bridgewater, and Caldwell can't FORCE a FA to sign here. He's nothing more than insurance, but you're using it as a reason to knock Caldwell. You can't "always" pickup a veteran QB, and you can't "always" pickup one better than Henne. Henne is practically the same talent and production for any FA QB. The only difference is that he's familiar with the playbook and what's expected of him. 

Quote:Signing Henne has no impact on us getting or not getting a QB in the draft.

Very true

I said you can always pick up one at least on that Henne level. I didn't say better.

I disagree.

 

Besides, the entire point I'm making is that you'd risk going into the season without Henne or potentially a top-QB from the draft. You validate all of this because you think that you can get a QB as good or worse than Henne.... and you said you have higher expectations?

My idea has always been to draft TWO QB this draft - one high in the draft who can start from day one, like Bridgewater, and one in the mid-late rounds like Murray who would be the backup/ developmental QB. 

 

Yes, if during training camp/ exhibition they decided that they'd feel more comfortable adding a veteran QB, they most certainly would be able to add someone around the roster cuts to serve as the "bridge QB" temporarily until Bridgewater is ready. I think you are deluding yourself if you don't think a QB on Henne's level can be got, even at that point. 

 

I'm going to keep an eye on the QB around training camp cuts around the league and revisit this then, just to show you that QB's would have been available, like I asserted.

I didn't see this anywhere but here is a breakdown of Chad's contract (if it was posted on another page and I missed it I apologize). Essentially it can be a 1yr $4.5m deal.

If he makes the roster. Otherwise, they cut him and they're out only 1.5 million

Exactly.

Henne is a Turd, Gabbert is a big turd 

Good fit for team and player.

Quote:just a little? Me a ton....



I disagree. FA Shaun Hill would have been better. Aaron Murray would have been better.


This move probably nixes the Jags selecting 2 QB in this draft too, because they won't keep 3 QB on the roster, and Aaron Murray or someone like that wouldn't be a good practice squad candidate, since he'll be scooped up quickly if placed there.

Surely not signing anyone and then picking 2 qbs would be tipping his hand?


Is Shaun Hill this years Damon Huard?

Quote:sticking with someone terrible just because they're the someone that you're used to having around sounds scared of change.

 

Very insightful.  I feel you truly have your finger on the pulse of this FO, for sure.

Oh the irony...
