Why wont the jags trade for teddy b?

[Stop_It_5]

If someone's trading for Bridgewater, it's to start. A 2 is a reasonable price for a starter.

a 2 isn't reasonable for someone who you would be acquiring basically mid-season (damn near impossible for Teddy to impact the 2018 season under those circumstances) and who would immediately become a free agent next offseason.

The 49ers gave that up for Jimmy because they were deadset on him being their franchise QB and were comfortable paying him whatever it took or flat out franchise tagging him. No one feels that way about Teddy.

If Bortles was a brotha he'd be on the verge of being out the league.

If Bortles was a "brotha" he would never have been drafted.

 

[Based Lord Zedd]

He did get Minnesota to the playoffs and a division crown 3 seasons ago. Would've had a playoff win too if not for that p*ssy ass Blair Walsh

He can play the questions are do you trust that he's fully ok after his injury

He'd still be our QB if he never got hurt. I think he could take the Jags to the Super Bowl

Post Injury, Vikings don't believe in his ability to lead a team with a strong D to the Super Bowl, so why should the Jags

What world do you live in?

 

[SpursFanSinceNovember2017]

Bortles is 3rd best QB in AFC.

 

[CarltonJunior]

Bortles is 3rd best QB in AFC.

Brady
Roethlisberger
Carr
Watson
Rivers
Luck (If healthy)
Jackson (I better not get any pushback about this)


Are definitely better QBs. Even if Bortles had better stats than the guys I mentioned they are still better and would do a better job if they swap places with Blake.

I've seen every game in Blake's entire career and he's never been a top 5 AFC QB.

Brah just came off an injury that almost got his leg amputated. He not on many people radar brah.

That was the talk on sports radio all day yesterday.

He’s on a lot of teams radar now brah.

 

[AITheAnswerAI]

The Jets are trying to showcase him in the preseason, and there are teams interested in him as a backup.

You just gonna ignore that Bortles took the Jags to the AFC championship?

Wrong.

Fournette and that defense took them to the AFC championship. All Bortles had to do was not fukk up too much.

Bortles didn’t. That defense & Leonard did, they were so good in spots during the season that if the offense didn’t produce points then the defense would. Also constantly gave Bortles a short field the entire game so he didn’t have to work much to get to the red zone.

Did the Jags have ANY offensive blowout games last year?

 

[JLova]

Teddy never been anything special... Nothing special enough to warrant a flier

He's basically Jason Campbell

That 14TD 9INT season was so amazing!!!! He's getting way more hype than he should IMO. He should be a backup to be honest or a 1B type player and see if he can ball out. But folk talking like he was carrying squads. He was steady.

Jason Campbell would be an accurate comparison.

 

[SoulController]

even before the injury, this board has always wanted Teddy to be more than he is. breh is not a top 20 QB, and hes a hit away from losing his leg. no one cares

 

[NYC Rebel]

The Jags should sign Geno. His play continues to improve and hes been lighting it up all preseason

Nah. Hes a starter. Seeing him come to the line and making way too many adjustments to make the game easier for the offense. You just went stat geek, nothing more. Hes better tha. Campbell because hes a smarter qb and makes better throws

No one feels that way about any qb coming off a catastrophic knee injury where he almost lost his leg.

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

As a Jets fan I'm not even sure I like the idea of trading Teddy right now...

I get why it's the smart thing to do considering the situation but Teddy is clearly the best QB on the team...

Never mind the fact I wanted these dumbasses to draft him four years ago...

They chose Calvin Pryor...
