I don't know if the fans have a lot of respect for Bortles or no respect for Henne.  Right now it's a close battle between bridgewater  with bortles getting over a 3rd of the vote to start the regular season

Even though Bridgewater was projected as the "Pro Ready QB, BB5 will have a more successful career...

The Jags weren't the only ones who think Bortles will be a franchise QB.

He was near the top of the Patriots board... good enough for me.

Watched all of his games several times on draft breakdown and I saw a lot of things I like about BB. Mostly his moving up in the pocket and not being afraid to take a hit. After Gabbert those two things were a must have trait in whomever we selected as our franchise QB. I definitely didn't want Manziel and wasn't sold on Teddy. I really thought we would go QB in the second round but was happy as soon as they picked BB because I have faith in Caldwell and Bradley's eye for talent.

I think what Caldwell identified in Bortles were the top quality building blocks which project into a top 10 QB, given the right environment. Caldwell has full control of the environment around Bortles, and at this point, the goal is to create the best environment for learning.  The distractions are minimized and the expectations tempered for now.  Bortles can adhere to the core tenet of just working hard and continuing to get better, letting everything else take care of itself.  In the meantime, there's enough happening at the other positions.  We need a better team around Bortles if he's to succeed.  The rebuild of the offense is just starting.  I'd rather see Bortles hit the field with a solid OL in front of him and a reliable receiving corps - right now we have neither, so IMO Bortles is lucky he gets to sit.
