Thanks, dude....I'm ready for some more football talk, so lets bring it on!! :thumbsup:

I have to agree with him, it isn't like Teddy is a lock to go first overall like Luck was.  He is not even a lock to be the first QB taken.   I think he doubts himself.  That is a big question mark for him coming out, he never had many close games so you don't really know if he will fold under pressure.  I think today there were just too many eyes on him and he didn't want to be in the spotlight.

 

You think Teddy doubts himself? lol, you've never met Teddy Bridgewater.

I am stoked over the possibilities for this offseason.

 

More than I have been in a long time.

I don't get all this "little upside" talk. He is the most Pro Ready but can still get better! IMO this makes him the best guy in the draft. Footwork, Reading defenses, and strength are a few things he could be better at. And with proper NFL training he could reach that higher level. 

 

Regardless I hope we draft Mack/Teddy or trade back.

Jags have one hell of an opportunity this offseason to significantly improve themselves; to the point from being a losing roster to a winning one. (9+ wins). I hope they take full advantage and also are shrewd and make some steals too.

The "little upside" stuff is nuts. Yet, similar comments were made with Luck and Manning when they were approaching their drafts. 

 

I don't care for those comments. Particularly because the QB's that usually are spoken of with the "most upside" or "most potential" usually never come close to fulfilling it as a pro. That kinda stuff about "amazing potential" was the kind of stuff said about Gabbert, too. 

 

Gimme the most polished/ pro ready QB for once, rather than the "project", or the QB that "needs some fixin".

WISE WORDS!

 

Teddy really seems to have some important skills that take longer to teach (Usually). Pocket presence, check down ability, Accuracy on the move, pre snap defensive reads. All which will be tested against NFL defenses, but at least he has the experience.

I can't decide which is funnier... the statement itself, or the fact it came from Tajh Boyd. Ouch!


It was nice to see Bortles and McCarron fully participate. Certainly not divas, both gained some respect by letting it all hang out.

The precedent has been set. Throwing in shorts in a dome has become too much for some QBs.

So I can put you in the grouping that preferred Alex Smith (the most "pro ready QB") over Aaron Rodgers (the guy who's a bit raw but has all the intangibles).

Not really because I never saw Alex Smith as that kind of pro ready QB at that time. I wasn't a fan of his coming into the league and I'm still no fan of his. 

 

Aaron Rodgers, I was mixed on, admittedly.

I would have liked to see both Manziel and Bridge throw, but you have to remember....its not the players themselves that are "chickening out" so to speak, I think its advice they are getting that is making these decisions.

You literally just made that up.

I agree. I said the same thing myself. They have advisors who are scared little boys.

Even though Aaron Rodgers has ended up being the better QB by far it DEF had to do with the years he was given to develop as a back-up. It's difficult to say the same would have happened had he started right away...he could have ended up like Brady Quinn. Alex Smith isn't that bad now either. Obviously not the best of that class but needed that time to develop as well.

You normally cant help your stock by throwing at the Combine so why do it?


Save it for the Pro Day with your WR boys.

Thats a good point. If Rodgers was thrown out there like Gabbert was from day one as a starter, who knows what would have became of him? Theres equally a chance he might have flamed out. All we can do is speculate at this point.

You do it because not doing it makes you look bad... meanwhile Bortles is getting praise.


I bet even David Fales has a good pro day. The combine at least controls the drills and doesnt let the players manipulate it.
