why would you draft a qb who converted to a wr in the first round
just cuz dude ran a 4.4 dudes drafted him early
Matt jones was the poster boy for that struggle jags receiving corps. I think the last time they made the playoffs and got smacked by the patriots their lineup was Jones, Reggie Williams, and Ernest wilfordthat matt jones was

dude ran like a 4.9 that was the worst crew I've ever seenMight as well make this the season threadQuarterback
The Problem: Blaine Gabbert has been afflicted with injuries—a lacerated thumb in Weeks 2 and 3; a hamstring that knocked him out of last week’s game against the Rams and will keep him out this Sunday—but even when healthy he has struggled. Gabbert’s main drawback continues to be his disturbing tendency to perceive pressure. He has no pocket poise or awareness. Here’s just a snippet of the myriad evidence:
Some believe this is a weakness that can’t be overcome. There’s no way to teach a quarterback to not play scared, and there’s no way to design viable passing plays if he’s being ruled by fear. If the Jaguars’ brass feel this way, we’ll see backup QB Chad Henne starting full-time very soon. The 6-3, 230-pound ex-Dolphin has always been willing to hold his ground and make throws with pressure bearing down. The problem, however, is that too many of his throws are off target.
Sliver of optimism: When Gabbert has functional space, he flashes the arm strength that got him drafted 10th overall in 2011. He can zip the ball with precision and confidence, particularly when throwing to receivers in the seams. Unfortunately, functional space is hard for quarterbacks to come by in the NFL, which is why Gabbert’s future here looks dim.
Receivers
The problem: None of the receivers have been able to free themselves from man coverage. There’s not much more to say, really. If a receiver can’t shake man coverage, he must be able to make contested catches. (See Boldin, Anquan.) Cecil Shorts has not done that. Neither has Ace Sanders. Nor Stephen Burton. At 6-6, 275, tight end Marcedes Lewis has the build to make contested catches, but a calf injury has sidelined him for all but three snaps this year. Backup tight end Clay Harbor runs pretty well after the catch, but he and fellow tight end Allen Reisner have been mostly nonfactors.
Sliver of optimism: Justin Blackmon returned to face the Rams last week following a four-game suspension for violating the league’s substance abuse policy. He scored a 67-yard touchdown the first time he touched the ball. But that catch, just like his 39-yarder, came against busted coverage. Blackmon also lacks the quickness and agility to consistently beat man coverage, but he can make plays when he’s afforded spacing early in his route. The Jags can use pre-snap motion and stack release concepts to create opportunities for him and spark their aerial game.
