Robinson - second round pick, big second contract
Cleveland - FA
Morse - FA
Scheriff - FA
Harrison - First Round
Little - Second Round
Fortner - Third Round
Foster - Fourth round

Plus we have Hodges, Shatley and Hance.

That’s so much

Just because we drafted Fortner with a 3rd doesn't mean he is a good player - just like the corollary exists as well. 

However, we know what kind of player Fortner is and if you will hang your hat on remaining complacent with him, Robinson teetering along Goodell's gavel while becoming a F/A, and others aging along that front - then Trevor and our team will not succeed in any way possible. 

It's an offensive league and we need a steady stream of strong competition to ensure our franchise QB can succeed and remain healthy.

I don't wish to see Fortner starting another game for the Jags, but imo that's a far cry from saying the Jags can't win with him as the snapper.     The Jags have beaten good teams over the past two seasons with Fortner as the every game starter.   Won the division once, and almost upset the Super Bowl winners in a playoff game.


He's below average, but he's good enough to be a backup to Morse.
