I'm not annoyed we're at #9 right now either.  I think we'll end up with a free shot at a really talented player, and probably one of the top two QBs. 

I've also seen not a single poster on the board state that a rookie QB is the answer to all the problems. 

I do think that the Jaguars absolutely, beyond a shadow of any doubt, unequivocally, MUST draft a QB early in this draft.  It's obviously not an easy fix to the long list of issues to be addressed, but the most important player position on the team must be addressed and the team would have to cripple their defense to afford a high priced free agent. Drafting the next guy is the financially wise way to work toward the fix.

Your one of the good parts of this board NYC, you've made these points before and i completely agree with YOU. I know where your coming from, your looking at the bigger picture of it, trying t salvage something positive out of this season.

What i can't get is how some people seem to be annoyed that a team expected to be challenging in January, won their 5th game of the season. Yes we will address QB but some people seem to be hypnotized by rookies, it's hype and potential. We could easily bring in a vet or try and make a big trade, there's plenty of ways to go. Everything on that O needs fixing this off season and i'm unsure how helpful throwing a rookie QB and a that comes with it into the mix.

I'm sick of seeing us being the laughing stock. But i now what point you are making NYC.

It's a QB league. If you don't have one you are screwed and we don't currently have one. The higher you are in the draft the better you are equipped to solve that problem, especially in a weak class like this.   

Winning today doesn't make that impossible (always good to beat a Florida team) , just makes it harder and when you have a front office that can't evaluate the QB position you wanna make it as easy as possible for them to get the job done.  

I don't agree that we could easily bring in a vet or make a big trade to fix the position for the next 5 years.

Foles gets like 20 million a year and probably a deal set up like 4 years with a team option after the 2nd year.
