I don't know this draft board well enough yet to throw out a name, but I'd like to see the Jags grab a college OT who can play guard for a year or two then take over for Parnell down the line.

Jackson's tools just blow Bortles out of the water. He has so much more velocity and so much better mechanics. He also has vast experience reading defenses and showing good decision making in the Petrino offense that was far more complex than what Bortles ran with the Jags this year.

His biggest flaw, the narrow base when he sets to throw, explains why he has erratic accuracy trying to throw outside the numbers and is also one of the easiest flaws to fix mechanically. Give him a year, or hell maybe two depending where he ends up, and he could be a star.
