I don't think he or Luton make it beyond the preseason on our roster.

this. the players don't need someone to vouch for the head coach.

The only way Smith ends up here as a QB is if we move Minshew. I like the idea of getting him involved in coaching. Urbz has already demonstrated a loyalty in that area with his 'guys'. Have him serve as a passing game consultant, spend time with the QB stable breaking down film and rehearsing plays/mechanics in practice, with the added bonus of not risking loss of limb.

Beathard isn't just a "camp arm".  He signed for 2 years/5M with 2.5M guaranteed.  That would be an awfully expensive body to just have in camp.  It's honestly an expensive back-up QB when you consider that Minshew is on the roster still on his rookie contract, has more starting experience than Beathard and beats him in every statistical category - more TDs per game, yds per game, higher completion % and fewer interceptions per game - not to mention a better winning percentage.

It's obvious that the Jags brought in Beathard so they could trade Minshew.  The trade hopefully happens during the draft but we might have to wait until preseason.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
