I wish I would have gave Bortles more consideration prior to the draft. I think at the time I was close minded because of the Gabbert thing so I was sort of shutting out any QB that even had remote similarities to him. (in this case they were more phyiscal than anything) but still....

 

In the "Eating Crow" thread, there's alot of talk about how some were not happy with the Bortles pick.  I'll be honest, I hadn't seen enough to really know how to feel about the pick, I think I was "meh" about it.  

 

I mean he came from Central Florida.  It's not like there were alot of folks that had seen enough of him to think, WOW this guy is legit.  But our leadership appears to have made the correct choice.  

 

That's why I think I'm on board with not starting him right away.  Let them handle BB5 the way they want to.  I just don't feel it's a good idea to begin questioning the front office and coaching staff on how they wish to get him ready.
