I'll admit he was pretty good when he needed to be against Pittsburgh, but he was far from consistent. Just look at the stats if you don't believe me. You never know what Blake Bortles is gonna show up from week to week, the guy who looks to be a word beater for short stretches or the guy who couldn't hit the side of a barn. It's almost like he's two different QB's in one body. One is like Eli Manning in his prime and the other is like Jamarcus Russell.

Eli in his prime was a world beater?

You know what I mean. I certainly wasn't going to use Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady, because on his very best day, Bortles has never been that good. Eli's ceiling is about where I'd put Blake on his best day

There is no QB worth even wasting a pick on, late in the draft. The mid to late round QB's are garbage. I'd rather keep Henne and I hate that guy. Don't believe me? Just watch the East/West Shrine game or the NFLPA Collegiate game today. Those games featured the crop of "project" QB's that will be available in the middle and late rounds of the draft. They all were terrible. Both games were dominated by defenses and forced turnovers. If you're counting on developing a mid to late round QB, this is definitely NOT the draft to do it in.
