Quote:Translation:

After Manning and Luck, he believes that Bridgewater is the best QB prospect to come out since 1998.  Putting him above the likes of the other 1st round prospects taken in that time period.  As prospects, and not their actual careers.

 

There's a pretty wide gap there.  When I read the various mock drafts, those who use the "best prospect" rhetoric that the chihuahua does, they usually qualify it by saying in this draft or the 2013 draft.  So, he's not really being compared to Luck or Manning.  He's being compared to Geno Smith and E.J. Manuel.  He's better than either of these guys, but that still doesn't make him any more of a guaranteed sure thing.  

 

Bridgewater may very well wind up being the best QB prospect in this draft, but let's not try to oversell him as being an absolute certainty to be a franchise QB, especially right out of the box. 

 

Regardless, all of the whining by one particular poster ignores the fact that the Jaguars STILL have the first pick in the draft at this point.  One win hasn't changed that, and we still have to face Houston again in less than 2 weeks.  If we lose out on the first pick, oh well!  We're missing out on the best QB prospect since Geno Smith and EJ Manuel.  There will be other options.
