Henne's been finding some deep shots this preseason so hopefully that's a good sign. You all know how much I disdain I've had for the man over the years, but it's largely because he's been so afraid to throw deep. I get it that he has a history of throwing INTs when he throws deep, but when he last played he was so timid that all he could do, with few exceptions, was check down and eek out yards throwing underneath. Now Henne has shown this preseason that he can throw deep, and he's always been able to when guys are streaking wide open. but I need to know he can hit guys deep even when they aren't glaringly open.
As for Bortles, it looks like his arm went limp yet again in the week leading up the Bucs game and that he was still dealing with this during the game. I reserve some level of hope that he can reach down within himself and bring out that inner Hulk Bortles that dominated defenses in 2015, but I fear that even if he does this much he may always have issues related to his arm sporadically going limp when you need him at his best.
As for Allen, he's got the arm. I'm hoping the only reason he's not being given serious consideration is that they're intent on doing right by him by letting him groom on the roster until there's no doubt he's ready to play. Other QBs in his draft class are starting and looking good, and there's reason to think he may be just as good.
