There is simply no chance Bortles is on our roster next year.

But, will the FO be ok with releasing him and Blake counting $16.5 mil against the cap.  No team in their right mind is going to trade a 7th rounder and take on his salary.

Yes. They will be ok eating that money because it's better than paying him 21 million to be on the roster.

A ton of people will be shocked and a ton of people who write for the Jags. Oesher says he's most likely cut and he's the closest writer to the Jags. He's also extremely optimistic and even he says he's cut.

You just can't bring him back and then somehow justify he gives them the best chance to win. A 21 million dollar backup? No way.
