Quote:Reports are out now that we're pursuing Murray from OAK. 6'3 - 230 pound RB. Been a decent back in OAK the last two years. Would be interesting to see him here in the mix with Yeldon and Ivory. This is really shaping out to be quite a unique free agency class.

 

We needed a CB. We got Bouye. 

We needed a DE/DT. We got Campbell.

We needed a SS. We got Church.

We needed a LT. We got Albert.

We needed depth on special teams and on the offensive line. We've added that. 

 

Adding a RB like Murray into the mix whose coming off of a year where he pretty much carried the bulk of the ground game in OAK is interesting. Not trying to get too far ahead but it really seems like we're going to try and trade out of that fourth overall spot next month or..... or..... draft a QB. 

 

Drafting a QB at #4 overall this year would be one of the stupidest moves in this franchise's history. It's one thing to bring in competition via free agency to push Bortles, but drafting a QB would sink Bortles before he even has a chance to right the ship. Remember what the Chargers did to Drew Brees? Yeah, that's how stupid we could look.

 

Then there's the most obvious reason: There is no QB worth taking at the #4 spot this year. None of these QBs are better than Bortles as they are now. Kizer has the most potential and MIGHT eventually be better than Bortles, but he needs a LOT of work done to him first - which would kill any chance of a Jags playoff run for the next 3 years.
