Though not totally unexpected, the Campbell trade was a real gut-punch. Not as much from the player perspective, but from the team and community leader perspective. If nothing else, it was a [BLEEP] PR move.

And I've already made my season ticket purchase for next year. It could be a real [BLEEP] show. Even if they strike it rich in the draft the chances that a bunch of rookies and QB that we are not even sure of can carry the team is pretty much non-existent. Hoping Minshew is the real deal seems to be the master plan with a backup of Trevor Lawrence as the backup.

Much tougher schedule on paper this year too between the AFC North & NFC North. Then we get the Chargers in L.A and the Dolphins at home. And both of those teams could be better than expected after this draft and free agency period.

It feels like they're putting ALL of this year's hopes and dreams on Minshew's shoulders. At the very least they need to give this kid every damn weapon they can find between this month and next month. In classic Jaguars fashion though they'll probably out play themselves into a finish that lands them out of the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes.
