The point was a few twitter clips showing basic reads does not a high football IQ make and it remains to be seen if he gets into trouble trusting his eyes too much and attempting to throw receivers open against far superior defenses. I would argue it has EVERYTHING to do with point. It’s okay to be critical of weaknesses and think a dude is decent. You glossed over that. Trouble happens when ignoring those weaknesses and think he is the next coming.... How many times now here in Jax? 

So I clarify...my opinion is he is a good prospect, but I have concerns with his reads and throwing the ball up for grabs. It works at the college level, not so much in the NFL. I think with his natural ability, he can be taught the important pieces and would make for a good project QB. I don’t know that if throwing him out as a day one saviors is such as good idea. Of course, a training camp would serve to help clear that question up.

Virtually every other QB prospect this year has this issue too though. Murray is definitely no better than Haskins. Jones is a bit safer here, but not by much.

No doubt! I think I said it before in one of the many QB posts... Haskins is the best of the mediocre. Just my opinion, but I don't find this QB class very strong. I'm fine with grabbing a top guy if he falls to us but mortgaging a future on this class I would hope we could avoid. I would hope the Jags don't enter QB desperation mode like a lot of folks on the board have.
