FWIW: Prisco's Power rankings

#21

Quote:What window?
 

There was a 3 month window when they had Haden, Mack, Gordon, and 2 First round picks.

 

Then they selected Manziel, Gordon tested positive, and Mack got hurt.

 

For a moment, and I stress "a moment" the arrow was pointing up.  :pirate:

He just listed us 26th.   It's not like he got crazy and placed us in the top 15.  :woot:

Quote:Glad to see a little more perspective in his power rankings, unlike most of these "experts" who merely pick up where the last season left off.  With that said, Prisco was a huge fan of Gabbert so there's that.
 

No kidding.  he was also a huge Henne fan during our Garrard days.

 

He loves the white drop back QB.  He'll probably be pimpin' J Driskel next year.

After our 07 season, if the ranking was made before the start of the 08 season, that argument could have been made by a lot of people.
IT WAS ALWAYS THE JAGS

I was in Cleveland for that moment.  Those fans up there were so hopeful and happy.  They deserve better, but so do we.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.

Fixed it for you.  To paraphrase Pete, he wants a QB to stick his foot in the ground and throw the ball, not run around.  Also to be fair if memory serves me correct he was a Garrard over Leftwich guy.  I could be wrong on that since I have slept since then.

I believe most were high on the jaguars in 2008 prior to the season. Most had them as a playoff team and dark horse hovering around the 12th ranked team. Prisco overrated us as he always does.

2008, where Garrard got his contract and ate his way to training camp.

Don't forget Gilbert.  He hasn't exactly invoked memories of Hanford Dixon.

 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!

And it's not just that they took Gilbert.

 

It's that they moved up to get him. They passed on Anthony Barr, Aaron Donald, Odell Beckham, Taylor Lewan and Kyle Fuller.

I faintly remember some even whispering about the Jags in the Superbowl.

 

 

Then the Oline issues happened. Garrard was Garrard and the D fell off from being pretty good to pretty bad, rather quickly.

I think losing 3 offensive linemen before halftime in the regular season opener doomed us too.


I'm pretty sure we opened against the titans too. !!

As I recall they moved down. They were originally slated to pick behind us when we took Bortles.  They had a desperate need for WR and traded out of four and Sammy Watkins.

Down to Buffalo's spot and up to Minnesota.

 

When they moved up with the Vikings, there was the buzz that it would be Manziel.

That's right.

 

Egads they bypassed a lot of talent for those two guys.

Did Prisco update his rankings on the news that Storm Johnson is out?
