Dave:
Jacksonville has a big decision to make with the third overall pick. As much as Jadeveon Clowney would cause problems for quarterbacks in the AFC South, it’s all meaningless until the Jaguars gets one of their own. It’s clear that neither Blaine Gabbert or soon-to-be free agent Chad Henne are the answer, and head coach Gus Bradley opted not to get a quarterback until the seventh round in 2013. They can’t afford to wait longer.

Giorgos:
The Jacksonville Jaguars need a quarterback more than anything. It has been said that they won’t draft a quarterback with this pick if they don’t see value, but if that’s the case with Teddy Bridgewater, then they must be blind. Jadeveon Clowney won’t win games for the Jags before they get a quarterback who can make plays. Bridgewater is as ready as they come out of college and could be Jacksonville’s leader for the years to come.
