Quote:And this method of thinking is why the Jaguars have adopted this motto. "Wait till next year", this tune has been sung for years and years. BAP doesn't necessarily mean it will work out either. We need a fight at QB and someone with a purpose in that position. Whether we take him at 3, 6, 12, 200. The Browns adopted this motto and have been rebuilding since the 80's. They went BAP when they took Trent Richardson thinking they still had a first round pick later on and they took Brandon Weeden. We're still wondering when the Browns will ever get out of the "wait till next year" mode. Personally, I don't think there are any QB's worthy of a top 5 pick this year if I was drafting. But in the Jaguars case you "reach" for one. Can we really expect to get back on the horse this year with late-round picks?

 

So, you don't think any of the QBs are worth a top 5 pick, but you advocate reaching for one.  When he fails, then what?  Howl and complain that the GM needs to go for reaching for someone who couldn't handle it? 

 

Seriously, you guys should really read the stuff you post before hitting the "Post" button. 

 

You say we need a fight at the QB position.  There's a lot of depth to the QB pool this year.  The problem is there's not a cast of characters that could be considered even remotely elite.  Some guys may rise, but you still don't want to reach for a QB.  There will be options, and I have no doubt this team is going to draft at least one QB next month.  They're not going to ignore the position.  They're just not going to make the mistake of over drafting either.

 

I don't want to see this team drafting a guy just for the sake of appearing to be trying.  I want them to make the right decision for what makes sense for this team.  We're not a QB away from anything at this point.  If we draft a guy we can develop into a solid or even good starter, I'm fine with that.  I'm not expecting an instant fix at QB because there's not a guy in the draft who is going to step in right away and give you that.
