I know the Jaguars suck and had Urban Meyer to make it worse. After watching his play for a full season, what do you think. Being the most highly touted QB in his draft class and appeared to have all the intangibles, had a pretty rough season.

Does this prove that a QB drafted #1 is still a crap shoot or will he rebound next season.

Just never know what the future brings in a rookie....no matter drafted first or twenty.

 

He was setup to look bad and did.  Nothing more. 

get some NFL coaching  and NFL talent at WR and I think Trevor will be fine.

I cannot figure out why the Jags aren’t in on this Tyreek deal? Seems like exactly the player they would want and should have a ton of cap.

They are building from the ground up.  Which means you need your draft picks.   You don’t give them away for one player if you are really trying to build.  

Panthers are example of building done wrong.  Wasting building picks in trades and bad ones on top of that

He won't be as good as hyped,but he'll be better with a better coach.

Better coaching/coaches make everything better. 

Bad coaching/coaches puts your feet in concrete and you begin to stagnate rather than develop.

Best thing for him and that team was getting rid of a college coach who should never have been hired in the first place.

He’s still got a huge ceiling IMHO. Between Meyer’s CF and having meh WRs, he had an OK rookie season. Will he get a Harrison and Wayne or Burrow’s Chase, Higgins and Boyd? Who knows but they need to get him some weapons now that he’s at least got an NFL level coach.

And O line.  If they are patient, they will be rewarded...can't speed this up too much though.

Also....keeping Baalke....Khan is an idiot.

The bolded applies to here as well.

Yeah, when your GM is quoted this off season about how they need to stop rebuilding through FA only, you wonder if he realizes he’s saying he sucks at drafting.

Never be amazed at how stupid many of us are....Trent is a piece of work man.

    • Oh yeah the QB is huge in this stuff. Imagine what Smitty could have done with a surgeon back there. And some more offensive minded head coaches. It was always run heavy. He was one of the best I ever saw and people didn’t know who he was outside of Carolina, for the longest time.   
    • For sure, any college scout that touted Bryce Young as worth the first overall pick, needs to be gone. I don’t think the college scouts are so much the issue, I think it is the minds of the decision makers that have the most influence.  If this draft produces, and Morgan was really in charge, maybe Tepper will develop some respect and stay back and let people work.     
    • I just am not aware of regimens that offer increased velocity which is the biggest weakness I can see in Young (that needs addressing right now). Is it possible to do? Who has done it that we can see as an example? I guess I am saying before I believe weights will give him added zip on the ball, I would want proof that it works.    I think weight room would help him not be pulled down by two fingers, even if they are big strong DL fingers. They are still fingers controlling 185 lbs. So that needs to be addressed but it is a secondary issue behind his footwork and ball velocity. It might help too, in allowing him to retain some velocity while not putting 100% effort into throws. Which should help his ‘deep’ ball.  I agree they can’t fix his footwork on those pistol or gun snaps where he slowly goes backwards and does the tippy toe thing.  Maybe putting him under center and taking the option of that type of drop away from him, forcing him into the classic under center style. Drop and plant and throw. Maybe that would help get around it.
