I wasn't on these boards for the last draft, or the draft before that, ooooor the draft before that. And maybe it's like this every year around draft-time, but sheesh there is some real venom spitted amongst fans of the same team on here.

 

People don't just question Manziel's ability, they hate him, belittle him, mock him at every chance. People don't just worry about Bridgewater, they bury him with every bit of bad press they can find.

 

I'm just curious what happens the morning AFTER draft day? Are all sins forgiven, all pasts forgotten?

If we get Teddy, will everybody magically just jump on board? If we get Manziel will he automatically become the consensus favorite player on these boards? I'm just curious.

 

I've personally tried to find some middle ground while staying true to my opinions(not perfect of course but I've tried).

I've tried to stress that while I certainly hope the Jags get Johnny at #3, and while that would absolutely make my year. I still like Bridgewater, he's my second favorite player in the draft. I have said multiple times that Clowney is hands down the best NFL prospect. Heck I like almost every QB in this draft including McCarron, Boyd, Murray, etc(if they are taken in the right round).

 

i just wonder, and maybe this is a pipe-dream. But is there a way Jaguar fans can disagree and even argue their opposing views, without digging their own graves? Can we agree that getting Clowney, Bridgewater, or Manziel at #3(or add your own top-3 here), would likely be one of the best, maybe THE best draft in Jaguar history? 

 

So what happens AFTER draft day? Do those who were "wrong" go live under rocks, and those who were right claim victory(even tho they were just guessing too). Is there a better way?

I want 3 players. Clowney, Bridgewater, Manziel. Jaguars have the number 3 pick. Just give me one of those 3 at 3, and I'm happy.

The fanboi's move on to the team their player was drafted, while the rest of us real Jags fans stay and tough it out.. Or we all get together and mambo..

We support the Jags. Whatever happens, happens and hope it works out for the best.

 

Except TMD. We will never hear the end of it.

I'll start looking at 2015 prospects. Shawn Oakman will be first on the list. I know I've mentioned him a bit here in hopes that he would have declared early, but my super early prediction is he's a top 12 pick next year.

I always look forward to that.. Comedy gold..

I'll become a Texans fan after they pick Clowney at number 1. I'm completely kidding though.

Titansequaltrash aka my mini me. Follows me around like a cute puppy dog.

Last year all the Geno people quickly jumped to Teddy and said they liked him better all along. I have two accounts, this is the one I use for draft base talk this year, can anybody guess who else I am? I'm not banned BTW.

I rolled on the floor laughing, With all those missed reads in the pocket Manziel had to improvise. If he had just stuck to the play book (or just be Teddy Bridgewater) A&M would have been in the National Title hunt late

Trolls gonna troll.

I just looked him up, only 2 sacks on the year, but he is listed at 6'9 270.

Concerning that at 6'9 he had NO passes defended....

1, no. I was a Geno guy but teddy was always a better prospect. Thats just how i saw it.

Everyone will discuss the prospects that the Jags drafted, the ones that they passed on, etc...

 

A lot of people will be gung ho about everyone we drafted, and talk about how they'll be good.  Any previous vitrol for players will be long forgotten until the player doesn't work out, at which point the vitrol will return with a vengeance.

 

Personally if Manziel is drafted, I will be concerned, but excited.  I'm not sure he'll translate well into the NFL.  But I'll be excited about any of the Top QB's getting drafted by the Jags.  

 

As for who I think Fran-TheManziel is -- I'd say it's hailtoyourvictor.

I was wrong about Trent Baalke.

After all the speculation is over and the mock-drafters are neatly packed away in their cardboard boxes with some straw, to start their long hibernation, we only have the new season to look forward to.

 

I'm not sure how we will cope until the 2015 draft.

we could have the best draft in nfl history and Dave could miss on our 6th round draft pick and u would never hear the end

---

Most will fall in love with who we draft and try and force nicknames on them before they play a down. The dissenters will remain quiet (cautiously optimistic) until the first "I told you so" moment.


All is forgiven until the games start... barring a punter in the 3rd or an Alualu reach.

---

We also get a bunch of new posters from the college of our first round pick claiming they are totally Jags fans now. They usually don't make it to the regular season.
