Who should be on the first cut list when the offseason begins?

#56

Quote:I said very well as in for a back up QB. 

 

And what's the point of finding a new back up when we already have a capable one that already has experience in the offense and has proved he is capable of running it? If we can retain him for a good price there is no need to get rid of him.

 

Really though, stick to college football. It's more for the casual fans like yourself who don't know anything.
 

Can't finish your argument without an insult, can you? 

 

He's not played very well as a back up Quarterback. He's played fair at best.  He doesn't have the yards or the TD:INT Ratio that's desirable from a backup Quarterback. Instead of resorting to insults, how about you try to show how he's played very well?  What you should expect from a backup QB is either a lot of interceptions, but a lot of yards.  Or few interceptions, and not that many yards.  Of course there are the rare occurrences where backup QB's are able to play well, but they either don't stay backups very long, or just aren't quite cut out to be starters.

 

 

Quote:The offense has improved with Henne out there.  It may not be dramatic improvement, but it's better now than it was in the first half of the season.  You can still count on Henne to make a few mistakes during the course of a game, but he's definitely an improvement over Gabbert at this point.  I think Blaine's confidence is just shot, and a change of venue will do him some good.  I just don't anticipate them cutting him unless they have replaced him on the roster via free agency with another veteran. 

 

It wouldn't shock me to see both Henne and Gabbert back for training camp next year along with a new rookie QB.  Caldwell isn't going to hamper things any further buy not having someone on the roster who has real experience, and understands the offensive system here in Jacksonville.  So, I could see them offer Henne a reasonable short term deal that is loaded with incentives. 
 

It's improved with Henne out there, but it's still one of the worst offenses in the league.  

 

I think that Henne might get an offer from the Jags, but I'm not sure they keep both Henne and Gabbert past training camp.  I think Caldwell will draft a QB, and maybe even draft two.  I don't think he's going to put all his eggs in one basket.  He might even bring in a veteran free agent if he only drafts one QB.  

I was wrong about Trent Baalke.
