Gabbert sucks and everyone knows it. You fools should be ashamed.

He basically never follows through when there semi-pressure. I laughed when they were showing him flinching when throwing when a pass rush was coming making him highly inaccurate. He has shown a little bit but less than the other QB’s drafted in the first 2 rounds. Reminds me of Alex Smith, very unsure and having a poor o-line and lack of weapons isn’t helping much.

He never should have gone anywhere near the first round. Happens every year, the so-called “pundits” decide some guy is a “franchise” QB with nothing other than his workout specs to back it up. If he’d gone in the 2nd or 3rd, sat for a few seasons, maybe he’d have been serviceable but now it’ll take years to undo the damage.

Gabbert is the opposite of poised.”

Damn, Gregg

@ Gregg Rosenthal, again – “Teams that take the wrong quarterback high in the draft usually make two mistakes. They draft the wrong guy, and then they can’t admit the mistake for 3-4 years. (Think JaMarcus Russell, J.P. Losman, Kyle Boller.)”

This is true, it is difficult ot know when to cut bait on a QB. QB’s in the past took 3-4 years at times to become the great QB they became (just think how nice it would have been if my Browns had kept Len Dawson, who was cut by the Browns AND the Steelers before his Hall of Fame career began). I don’t know of any first round QB to be cut after only one year (Todd Marinovich was cut after 2).

Will Blaine Gabbert feel the Wrath of Kahn?

He is very raw, but has a boatload of potential. He was thrown to wolves that were way out of his league. He had no business starting this year.

I think giving him 2-3 years of watching someone else play, and learning behind the scenes is exactly what he needs. And I would be more than happy to have him on my team doing exactly that.

Drew Brees never would of been giving much of a chance with your logic. Yes, the new coach should try to bring in some competition…but don’t spend another 1st round draft pick on a QB a year after drafting Gabbert.

Why do teams draft QBs if they arent going to give them a chance???

Speaking of QBs with minimal accuracy and a comically bad pocket presence…

He’s actually shown a bit of poise of late in his staying in the pocket, but when your oline gives up 7 sacks you obviously don’t have time to make throws.

If the Jags can draft a quality QB in April, they should, and give Gabbert an opportunity to earn the starting job in training camp.

As for JDR, he was toast the day Garrard was cut.

Mayock praised Gabbert from the beginning. He was so sure that Gabbert should be the number one QB off the board, plus he had his doubts about Cam Newton. Enough said.

Gabbert can’t hit his throws and when he does, the receiver drops it. I (like many others) was not sold on Gabbert coming out of MU. He was an average QB in college so how could he be expected to be a good NFL QB? I live in Missouri and watched quite a few MU games and I had Gabbert ranked behind all of the first round quarterbacks.

You answered yourself

“(Think JaMarcus Russell, J.P. Losman, Kyle Boller.)”

Sanchez is just as bad at times and has started the last 3 years. Flacco at times looks even worse. But they have much more talent on their roster. Holmes, Burress, Boldin, Tory Smith, Keller, Dickson, etc. They have better o-lines as well. Also his schedule hasn’t been a cake walk either. @Pittsburgh, Baltimore, @Houston, @Indianapolis @Cleveland, Houston. Indi is the only non-top ten deffense on that schedule. Give him a break

Pocket presence is the demonstration of fearlessness and confidence. If he’s ever ready, those things come naturally

He was a 21 year old who left school after his true junior season having only started 2 years of college ball in a short passing spread offense. The Jaguars are idiots for giving him the keys to the team right off the bat. He shouldn’t have even been an option in 2011.

I hope Blaine can improve and be our franchise QB but he has not looked very good (step forward in the pocket Blaine). In his defense, he does need a number one WR (Justin Blackmon) who will go get the ball! And Marcedes “Two left hands” Lewis has to improve or be shown the door. He looks the part but his one good year was a contract year…. We need an innovative OC/QB coach that will help Blaine improve like Harbaugh and his staff did with Alex Smith in SF.

The Vikings receivers are pretty brutal, the “#1″ receiver got cut midseason. Ponder is still looking decent and like he has some promise. And as far as protection goes, I think the Vikings need 4 new starters at OL next year. The Jaguars offense may be worse, but that is hard for me to believe.

Fox basically phoned in his final year at Carolina, much the way Del Rio has, I expect. Matt Moore looked horrible in the first few games and Jimmy Clausen looked even worse. Moore has looked solid and even impressive during Miami’s recent run. Could Gabbert’s lack of growth/success be attributed to a lame duck coach knowing that whatever he does won;t save his job? Unless someone like Barkley falls in their lap they’d be better off seeking some more defensive talent high in the first round and QB shopping in the second.

What I hate is when a GM stubbornly refuses to admit the truth about a draft pick. GMs hate to admit they were wrong.

Frankly, from watching Gabbert live and in person all year long, I see tremendous talent. He suffers from bad WRs and lousy protection. There’s just no way to give the guy a fair evaluation with these players surrounding him.

Marcedes Lewis drops a TD pass vs. Houston last Sunday, even made Peter King’s list for worst goat of the week. There wasn’t anyone within 10-feet of him.

I’m not a Jags fan, but give the guy a couple of receivers that can catch a friggin’ TD pass when it’s laid in there perfectly.
