I’m going Coby Fleener on offense. I think in a healthy second year working with a quarterback and coordinator he has experience with dating back to college, he can do big things. Defensively, I’m going Johnathan Cyprien. I think the second-rounder is going to do big things for Jacksonville.

I think it’s likely they’ve been starving for an outlet, too. It certainly seems that way judging by the emails I receive. The British NFL fans are excited about the NFL and about seeing the Jaguars on a yearly basis for the next four years.

The Jaguars' analytics department is correct with its research showing he was an above-average quarterback when given at least 2.6 seconds in the pocket. “If Gabbert doesn't develop, the Jaguars feel confident they can find a quarterback in the 2014 draft, which has a better quarterback class than this year's draft had. Teddy Bridgewater, Tajh Boyd and Johnny Manziel are all more likely than Gabbert to be taking snaps for the 2016 Jaguars.”
