I don't think Caldwell has the ability to make that magic happen. I think we're stuck with Foles until he calls it a career - which, if he gets laid out badly a few more times, might be within the next year or so...

But even then as much as I hope Minshew CAN be the guy....WILL he? I like him a lot, but with two first rounders these next four years....does it make sense to risk not picking a QB again? I don' t know. It sucks because it seems like every time there's an opportunity for a solid QB to get drafted, Jacksonville passes, and it always bites them in the [BLEEP] - save for what they may have in Minshew this year

This.. I keep saying it. I realize it could be a completely idiotic pick in hindsight as Minshew looks like he could be the real deal. This team is overdue a franchise QB we can build around for years to come. It’s been our second biggest problem just behind coaching for nearly two decades. 

I see a great qb in Minshew and he’s super fun to watch. But the trademark of a franchise QB is elevating his team to win a clutch game. Minshew has yet to do that. We have all at some point bought in on a qb in the past and watched the jags pass on some really great qbs. I would LOVE to be wrong and see Minshew completely ball out next year. I like the kid a lot. Otherwise, we need to error on the side of caution and grab a decent QB in this draft. I would rather have two gunslingers that could develop into THE guy....
