I'm sure most of you will not be shocked to know that i DISLIKE the pick.. and for multiple reasons.

 

The farther this process went, the further QB's were slipping.

 

Bortles is absolutely ZERO of a lock to be better than a guys like Bridgewater.

 

For all the people hating on Teddy for his handsize, are you ready for this?  Bortles has 1/8 of an inch bigger hands.. 1/8 people...

 

there were absolute stud locks avialable at 3 with watkins and mack available.

 

We could have taken a stud like watkins, and then traded up to pick 32 for Teddy, or get a guy like Garropolo in the 2nd.. a guy who probably isn't that much behind bortles.

 

It just seems like another year gone by, another questionable decision by this team's braintrust... Doesnt matter who is in charge, nothing seems to change.

 

Now they are saying he isnt ready to start?

 

so this is supposed to be our franchise QB, yet isn't ready to come in and start on a 4-12 football team lead by Chad Henne?

 

So basically, You are telling me I have to watch this upcoming season as if we didn't even have a 3rd overall pick at all...

 

HOW AWESOME!

 

I know most will pull the "trust in the GM" stuff.. but seriously... no one on this team has proven anything

 

Do you guys realize that last TRUE STUD this team has drafted was MJD?? how many years ago was that? 7 years ago?  roughly?

 

7 drafts and 1 true stud, and how many times have we drafted in the top 10 since then?  almost every time?

 

I mean obviously me and everyone else not liking this pick will have to eat our words if he becomes a franchise QB, which I hope he does... obviously, because we desperately need one

 

but this just seems like a complete 50/50 gamble ONCE AGAIN... instead of drafting a true guaranteed(or as close to it as it gets) stud and getting a gamble at QB in round 2 that is no more of a gamble than this guy

 

This team is going to win 5 or 6 games again next year smh...
