How far can Bortles develop without playing ?

#49

Quote:I see what they're doing with Bortles as very similar to what GB did with Aaron Rodgers...and potential similar...potential. When Bortles takes the field he will know the playbook by heart, his mechanics will be completely reworked to the point where they're muscle memory and his accuracy and arm strength, which are both already more than good enough, will be notably improved, and he'll have instant chemistry with the receivers.


I said this in the thread I made a few days ago, but I expect 2015 Bortles to have the smoothness in the pocket and mechanical polish of Bridgewater, as he already has what you can't teach which is natural pocket presence, an arm similar in talent to Aaron Rodgers once the mechanical issues are flushed out (i.e. not a canon but a good mix of accuracy, touch, and strength),all wrapped into a Big Ben sized body that has great straight away speed for his size.


Honestly the more I think about it, the more I see Bortles as being a Big Ben sized version of Aaron Rodgers in our offensive system.
 

Question.  Why does everyone keep bringing up Rodgers?  Is anyone suggesting Bortles sit for 3 years??  And how long does Aaron Rodgers sit if Chad Henne is the starter?  Aaron Rodgers isn't remotely close to the Jaguars situation right now.  The Aaron Rodgers situation is having a hall of fame QB and drafting another in the first round.  The Patriots are attempting to do what GB did, not us, but they had to settle for a 2nd rounder.
