Quote:Everyone will discuss the prospects that the Jags drafted, the ones that they passed on, etc...

 

A lot of people will be gung ho about everyone we drafted, and talk about how they'll be good.  Any previous vitrol for players will be long forgotten until the player doesn't work out, at which point the vitrol will return with a vengeance.

 

Personally if Manziel is drafted, I will be concerned, but excited.  I'm not sure he'll translate well into the NFL.  But I'll be excited about any of the Top QB's getting drafted by the Jags.  

 

 

I agree completely with this.

 

I think even though some may have initially opposed the choice, I think most will be enthusiastic about seeing the new guys in minicamps/OTAs/whichever ones are open to the public post draft, then training camp.

 

I think you'll see some debating whether or not we should have traded up/down (see Gene Smith's trade of a 2010 2nd round pick for the right to choose Derek Cox in the 3rd round in 2009).

 

But yeah, I think most will fall in line with who the team picks until preseason.

 

If any opposed the pick at the time, and the pick shows any signs of struggle, then you'll hear them.
