Well Bortles was like my 5th or 6th preference but what can I say.......I'm all in. I'll be a big Bortles fan now.

Quote:I was shocked, but I don't hate the pick. I think Bortles was the highest rated QB by the teams. Think its fairly obvious that the Browns would have taken him. Anyone got a pic of him with the jersey?

Excellent points.

I seriously doubt he's changed his stance that Bortles will need "seasoning" and "sit a while."  I don't think he's been deceptive at all.  But then, I'm not accusing him of being deceptive because I didn't guess the pick right.

Maybe this is Shad Khans fault. He is trying to get closer to Lindsey. Oh and speaking of. The new face of our franchise is Lindsey Duke.

I doubt its Manziel. If they wanted him, they take him at #4.

WE GOT OUR QB folks.  I do hope they take Aaron Murray later tho LOL.  He will be the steady backup QB who can win playoff games if Bortles gets hurt during the undefeated 2016 season.

 

Dave should fold the tent and go to bed now.  Take the best WR in round 2, unless somebody drops to #39 like Dee Ford.

 

The top 10 is shaking out very predictably actually, the biggest jolt being DC with Bortles at #3.
