Another project situation: Russel Wilson.  He wasn't drafted to be the starter and look what happened.

 

I hear you all, I would just prefer this route to a vet until we are at least in contention and know what we have in Bortles.  Hopefully Bortles works out, but as a Jags fan since the beginning, i've learned to be guarded.

 

If you give me a 50 to 1 shot that the back-up turns into something special, i'll take that over the 0% that comes along with a journeyman vet who is who he is.  Just my opinion.  Both philosophies are currently used in the NFL so there's no right or wrong.
