I agree ukjag. I think it's the left field nature of the pick that's surprised people. Nearly everyone had it down as Mack or Watkins. Bortles was the unanimous guy for all the coaching staff so it was a no brainer, especially with Browns, Vikings and Raiders all picking directly below us.


We don't have many expectations for this season so we can afford to bring him in when we feel he's ready and really develop him to as close to his ceiling as possible. I personally believe he's going to be fantastic. Give him as long as he needs to develop. Draft a couple WR's for him and hope Blackmon sorts his life out and comes back.


Defensively I think we're actually alright at the moment, did some great work in free agency. Offensively it's a real shame we didn't get Alex Mack but hopefully we can pick up a decent centre from somewhere.


I'm excited!
