I'd say that there is a very strong likelihood that the Jaguars next quarterback will either be Haskins or Drew Lock. Even if they win on Sunday against a horrible Redskins team, I still see them getting 1 of the top 2 quarterbacks. Herbert has a good chance of remaining in school and I'm not even sure if he'd be rated higher than these 2 guys if he did declare for the draft. Jaguars fans should be excited that there is a good chance they will finally get their first true franchise quarterback since Mark Brunell. Both of these quarterbacks have several qualities which can lead to a successful NFL career. Arm strength and accuracy are at the top of any list of q.b. skills necessary and both Haskins and Lock possess these traits. That being said, Haskins lack of experience and Lock's quiet demeanor (and perceived lack of leadership) have been brought up as possible roadblocks to success. I believe the Jaguars are fortunate that neither of these guys are "guarantees" as this will enable us to get one of them when we pick somewhere between picks 4-7.

Mostly everyone has focused on how disappointing this season has been and how our window is now closed. I'd like to believe that the window would have never remained open as long as Bortles was quarterback and this year's frustrations will be reversed with a new quarterback, healthy offensive line and a draft/free agency which will target an additional playmaker at wide receiver and tight end along with another swing offensive lineman. Even with the inevitable departure of Malik Jackson and Church, the defense should be fine with Bryan and Harrison. Add in a creative offensive coordinator and the Jaguars will return to the playoffs next season with the arrow continuing to point up as Haskins/Lock keep improving with experience.
