To be honest, not benching Bortles at halftime vs the Titans in 2016 was the BAD choice. That was his lowest point.

Then all of the sudden he woke up and forget how to properly throw a football.

If they were sold on Blake then Fournette was the pick. There were rumors that Coughlin didn’t want Bortles, and some of us thought Mahommes or Watson would be the pick.

But thinking like that means we messed up on bringing Cousins or Smith in. The bottom line is for whatever reason they backed Bortles and it sank the ship.

That’s not on Fournette, IMO that’s on Bortles not living up to his extension. He got paid and then turned back into Blake Bortles.
