Quote:I'm not "mad" at the pick. I'm not. 

 

Still in shock? Perhaps....a little jealous of what Cleveland was able to do, and think that would have been great for us? Yep. Still concerned that  Bortles isn't all that great of a QB prospect? Yep. Did I think that Bortles would have fell in the draft at least somewhat? Yep. I don't see Cleveland taking him at 4. Cleveland was trading down regardless, IMO. 

 

I'll give Bortles a chance. But I am allowed to have an opinion where as of right now, I'm not sold on the guy. Sure, that can change when I start to see him developing for us. We all want this guy to pan out. Its pretty much the only hope we got. Right? 

 

Of course, that's very reasonable.

 

No beef with that stance at all.

 

Another thing to consider... taking the QB skills out of it (which I also think Bortles is best at).. he was a very safe pick.  They talked about him not having any distractions. He's ALLLL about football.  NO concerns with the law, drugs, etc.  No concerns with size or durability.  No concerns with intelligence and work ethic.  No concerns at all.

 

You can't say that about Bridgewater and Manziel.  Can't say that about Sammy either now that I think about it.
