It's essentially the advantage that manning had in our division, he was the only real QB.

The Jaguars need to get a team that can dominate the division and get to 13+ wins a year. Once they can do that they'll be playing a bunch of home playoffs games and we'll be able to complete with those other QBs.

In any case the first order of business is to stop the need drafting and reaching and start drafting elite talents, not roster plugs.

Great point.   Assuming we can keep the other division teams from ever getting a franchise signal caller and we can successfully develop ours, we should have that advantage in our division for a long time.  Conversely, it seems the other divisions will have real fights for divisional supremacy because of the multiple quality QBs.

As to your last point, the sooner we get Spielman in, the better.  While I think Baalke for all his faults, can find OL and DL, I don't trust him at all to find quality receivers/skill players, nor do I trust him to be able or willing to sign quality free agents.  Spielman, OTOH has proven to be quite capable of finding WRs, RBs, CBs, LBs and edge rushers.
