I like Minshew but I do wonder if he can ever match the legend the Huddle has made him. I'm as guilty of it as most but if he were really the second coming of Fitzmagic, he would probably have a LOT of interest.

He's still on his rookie contract, next year we'll see what teams really think about him. Not sure why the Jags gave him up for a 5th rounder, and I'm curious what we offered Philly last year. 41-12 TD/INT ratio and about 65% completion percentage through his starts.

Well the Jags FO is a complete disaster, so that could be why they got rid of him.

It will be interesting to see what the NFL thinks about him as a FA.

Somebody like Jacoby Brisset or Teddy Bridgewater will probably take the reigns as Captain Tank for a Draftpick 

He was never quite the "tank for draft picks" guy. He was the placeholder. More often than not it seemed like he went to a team that had an outside shot at the playoffs, but due to injury or poor roster management found themselves without a quality QB. He was Captain He's The Best We Can Do.

For that? Probably Jimmy G will end up in the journeymen QB for teams with a glimmer of hope role.

thats a hell of a career tbh he wipes his ass with dolla bills

I mean…He has a shitload of money, is obviously very smart, wouldn’t surprise me if he winds up with a better career in the booth or front office. It’s an extraordinary career honestly.

My point about Fitz was he was a capable NFL starter but if he was starter for a team it was because they were trying to suck and put up a front like they weren’t

dude made over 80 mill, good for him

At least he showed up to earn his money unlike Sam Bradford.. he pulled the biggest QB heist ever with his big contracts and constantly being injured!

      Underdog 2nd year QB preview

      By SteveSmithTD89 · Posted

      I'd argue that not being able to beat out an incumbent starter despite being drafted in the first round could also be quantified as a "bad" rookie season.  Still, 12 of those guys played more than 10 games as a rookie.  Again, Im not saying hes a world beater here, in fact I'd wager he's more likely than not to be another name on this long list of 1st round busts, but I also don't think he's even close to being the worst rookie QB since 2000.   Brandon Weeden - 15 games  Josh Rosen 14 games Paxton Lynch - 5 games Kenny Pickett - 13 games Trey Lance - 6 games, starts  David Carr- 16 games  Joey Harrington - 14 games Patrick Ramsey - 9 games  Kyle Boler - 11 games JP Losman - 4 games, no starts Matt Leinart - 12 games  JaMarcus Russell - 4 games, 1 start Brady Quinn - 1 game, no starts Josh Freemen - 10 games EJ Manuel - 10 games  Jake Locker- 5 games, no starts Johnny Manziel - 5 games, 2 starts Sam Darnold - 13 games Dwayne Haskins - 9 games  Zac Wilson - 13 games Mac Jones - 17 games (probably shouldn't be on here, actually had a solid rookie year)

      Brandon Weeden  Josh Rosen  Paxton Lynch  Kenny Pickett Trey Lance  David Carr Joey Harrington  Patrick Ramsey  Kyle Boler  JP Losman  Matt Leinart  JaMarcus Russell  Brady Quinn  Josh Freemen  EJ Manuel  Jake Locker Johnny Manziel  Sam Darnold Dwayne Haskins  Zac Wilson  Mac Jones    Theres 20. That's just the first rounders. Open that up to the 2nd,3rd and 4th rounds the list gets tremendously larger. Hopefully Bryce turns it around in a big way this year but I'm not expecting much. I'd imagine he ends up going down as another name on this list.  Here's to hoping I'm wrong.
