7.Jason Myers remains lone K on roster. HC Doug Marrone said he doesn’t know if stays that way Thursday. Jaguars tried out two Ks Saturday.
Yipeeeee
Sounds like same ole same ole.
No Brandon Allen. Doesn't he know what an idiot he's being for not giving him a shot? You never know. He may not be good in practice, but he might be a star in the game.
So we're seriously staring down the prospect of Blake Bortles losing his job to Chad Henne.

Chad.

Henne.

RIP Doug Marrone's tenure as coach, January 2017-November 2017. The only question is does Coughlin fire him or does he quit?

On the bright side, we'll be assured of another top 5 pick.  Undecided
It'll be just high enough to miss all the good qps this year

Isn't that the way it seems to be working out for this team?  #becausejaguars
I feel for Doug Marrone. The incompetence of Gus Bradley and Dave Caldwell has put a tremendous amount of pressure on Marrone. This team has no option but to win this year, and it is most likel, not going to happen.

Good job guys you always find a way to make me proud.
Gus wrecked so many men's careers during his tenure. It I'd really sad.
Aaron Rodgers drafted late in the 1st round

Tom Brady drafted in the 6th round

Russel Wilson the third round?

Who says you need to draft high for a QB?

Derek Carr in second, Drew Brees in second, Prescott in the forth.

There are definitely QBs that can be had in the later rounds if you get lucky, but even the teams that took those guys didn't recognize their ability or they'd have taken them earlier than that.

Really it comes down to having to take and when the value is there, and don't waste first round picks on guys you don't feel confident about.
Trying to predict a QB's future success is obviously hard. I'm more pissed with things like not being more aggressive with O-line in off season as well as not drafting another O-lineman after Cam, not getting more competition at QB, putting all are eggs in Bortles which was by all accounts a long shot, keeping a lot of the same coaches, etc... I've warmed up to Dougy and he seems to be on the same page as Tom Coughlin, but looking back we probably should have cleaned house elsewhere.
