Quote:The coaches have made comments about not wanting to give rookies too much to absorb in year one. They made reference to Bortles and Denard Robinson as examples that had too much to learn in year one and suffered as a result. 

 

I think they'd rather see him play fast situationally and understand making the defensive calls from the middle than trying to learn two positions. 

 

Learning the other LB spots will be easy when he has absorbed learning the Mike spot.  Poszlusny may not be here next year also, so they want him to shadow that guy while he has the chance. 

 

I think Bortles had to learn too much too fast because coaches realized after only two games they can't survive with Chad Henne all season. The team wanted to let him learn from the bench all season.

 

Denard Robinson needed to learn what position he should play in the NFL before he could spend most of his time in the running backs room.

 

I don't see Poz being cut just because we drafted Jack.
