Quote:Give Bortles time to learn from the bench and he's going to be good. Start him as a rookie and he's going to be Gabbert.

 

Here's the problem with over-drafting quarterback. You get forced into taking a quarterback too high, then the crowd naturally wants to see him play because he's a top draft pick.

 

Nice Catch-22. 

 

If you take a quarterback at the top of the draft, you better make sure he's battle-ready. The press and the fans are going to run you out of town if you don't play the rookie.

 

We don't develop quarterbacks in Jacksonville, we kill them.
