Caldwell has wanted Bortles for a long time

Quote:But when they cite measurables as one of the first reasoning for why he likes him....

 

While I agree that Gabbert and Bortles were different styles in college, I got the same underwhelming feeling when watching his play in college. 

 

Potential? Sure. But Gabbert also had the same sort of "potential" and a lot of it was based off of the measurables and chalk talk. 

 

 

I dunno, I would feel less apprehensive if measureables weren't one of the first thing Caldwell used there to trump the pick up. 
 

Measurables is just one of those power words that people use.  There have been plenty of QB's who succeeded that had the measurables, and it was probably the first thing talked about then too.

I was wrong about Trent Baalke.
