I continue to stand by the fact that I think Bridgewater is nothing more than a media concocted phenom who is closer to average than top pick material in this QB draft.  There are more than enough flags there to cause concern for any team with a high pick, including the Jaguars.  After listening to all the hype over the past several months, when I got an opportunity to watch a couple of his games, let's just say he was underwhelming.  Not a guy I'd want to dangle out there as a franchise QB.  I don't think there is one in this draft, to be honest.  There are good ones, including Bridgewater, but there are none that really stand out.  Each has legitimate concerns. 

 

In the end, maybe we find a guy in the draft we can develop into something effective in our scheme.  Maybe we don't.  I'm sure the team is going to give it a shot by grabbing one of the oft mentioned names we've all heard.  But, I think they'll be tempering any enthusiasm by making it clear that no matter who that might be, there will be a process in place to develop him, and in the meantime, Henne is the starting QB for the Jaguars. 

 

Let's hope that defense really rises to the challenge.

 

The only thing I'd totally disagree with you on is that if we take a guy at 3, Henne will be lucky to make week 8 as the starting QB. Heck if we take a guy in the first 3 rounds, Henne wont finish the season.

This is how someone expresses a negative opinion on a player without attracting flames. Note the use of qualifiers like 'I think' and 'maybe'.
