Blake Bortles as a long term quarterback?

#83

Quote:What else?  He showed he's durable.  That's a big deal for a franchise QB.  He also showed he knows how to move around and avoid the more serious shots a more stationary QB often takes.  He can protect himself at the end of runs and runs smart.  He's really athletic for a guy his size.  He's also a low-key kind of guy who seems like it's not too big for him, he will put in the hours required to elevate his game, and grow within this offense and team.  I think the footwork and mechanics are fixable and we should see a lot of improvement in year 2. 
 

Bortles is durable and we've seen that from season 1.  Hopefully he'll never take as many hits as he did year 1 over any two year span in his career.  Some of the couple big hits that Blake took (blind and unblocked) took would have earned an IR spot for Carr or Bridgewater.
