While I have not done a survey or census, I distinctly recall there were numerous posters who were advocating the team upgrade the QB position this past offseason.

However, as I pointed out earlier, signing Cousins or trading for Alex Smith to replace Bortles this year would not have made much difference in the team's fortunes in light of the injuries on the offensive side of the ball.

Exactly and it would've meant we would have to let someone on defense walk in FA because we didn't have the cap space to sign them. Cousins' cap hit is $24M-$29M-$31M, Smith's cap hit is more reasonable because it's a longer contract but it's still a $20M+/year deal after this season.
