Quote:You see flashes here and there from the young players, but when you're starting as many rookies as the Jaguars are it's hard to stop the mental mistakes and develop chemistry.  If Todman catches that ball, do we score a TD?  If Shorts doesn't fumble, do we get a TD?  

 

You have to think the O-line will be significantly improved next year with the unit having played together for this year, plus an entire offseason.  

But that's the thing.

 

What part of the screw ups are inexperience and what part is a lack of talent?

 

Let's play out a hypothetical.

 

Suppose we end up with the top overall pick. 

 

To me, the inclination would be to trade down and get a boat load of picks for Mariota.

 

Do we not take an OL in the draft and gamble that all of the problems with the OL are strictly experience based?

 

What about the secondary?
