re: When will the Jags give up on Blaine Gabbert????

At his agent's behest, he did not attend combine and only threw at his pro-day. Scouts looked at nothing but his height/arm strength/etc.

This. His entire career has been smoke and mirrors. He put up moderate numbers in high school his junior year and didn't play his senior year but somehow managed to be a 5* recruit and came to Mizzou. Look at his numbers at Mizzou. Middle of the pack to bottom half of the Big 12 alone. Everything was hype about his height and arm strength. Just because a guy is 6'4" and throws 98 doesn't mean he should be in a MLB rotation. He needs to be a pitcher too, or in this case a QB.
