Gabbert's trade value?

Caulibflower · 03-23-2012, 06:23 AM

If Tebow goes basically for a 4th, after his body of work... What would Gabbert get? People have been talking about Tebow being in Jacksonville, and it makes me wonder how much Jacksonville could get for their quarterback after a really, really unimpressive rookie season.

Nothing more than a 5th or 6th rounder at best after Gabberts horrific season.

ImBrotherCain · 03-23-2012, 08:04 AM

He can get well more than a 5th or 6th. The guy may have played like crap but was a consensus 1-2 rounder in the draft last year.

I am willing to bet he would fetch a 3rd at minimum.

A pile of fresh cut pubes on a good day.

jrdrylie · 03-23-2012, 09:13 AM

Gabbert would fetch at least a 4th round pick and maybe even a 3rd rounder.

I dont understand why Jacksonville didnt offer Gabbert for Tebow.

Jaguars OC Bob Bratkowski and QBs coach Greg Olson plan to tinker with Blaine Gabbert's footwork this offseason.

Bratkowski praised Gabbert's "arm talent," but emphasized that he must slow his drops and stand taller in the pocket. The coaches also want to eliminate a hop and long step at the end of Gabbert's drop. Bratkowski and Olson have their hands full in also eliminating Gabbert's tendency to panic at the slightest sense of pressure.

SO you have two morons trying to coach up a scared QB who is afraid of pressure? As a Bucs fan, I just laugh at any news including Greg Olson and his responsibility to develop any QB. He sucked as an OC in Tampa, St. Louis, and San Fransisco and never did squat. I'm surprised he even got another look in the NFL.

You can be a horrible OC and still be a good QB coach. That's not unusual or rare.

...and I thought he made Josh Freeman the EMVEEPEEZ?

...

So they think he sucks.

I'd be willing to invest a 2nd Round pick in him. Worth the risk -- the risk being that he might not ever get over his issue with feeling a phantom pass rush every time he drops back. He's an elite QB prospect.

They have one minor issue to work on and the one everyone has known about since the dawn of time.

That's a fairly crippling issue, even if everybody has known about it since the dawn of time.

A pile of s**t

mightytitan9 · 03-23-2012, 01:00 PM

They could still get a 1st or 2nd for him, there's a reason he fell to the pick he did though, teams weren't as high on him as some around these boards were (I wasn't one of them, but many loved him)

I think someone would be willing to trade a late first for him or early second depending on where they are drafting. QB values are going up, we're seeing things revert back to the days when teams could afford to draft QBs and sit them.

Nobody is giving a 1st or 2nd.

Freeman played better when he took control of the offense and playcalling.

Olson was never a good QBs coach either though, that's my point.

Boom. He's never been elite. He's never been close, in fact. If anything, spending all last year starting in Jax only exacerbated the problems he had in college...Happy feet in the pocket, poor accuracy, an inability to read a defense, being an enormous *****, etc.

yodapoop · 03-23-2012, 01:48 PM

My dog's ****

K Train · 03-23-2012, 01:50 PM

i never saw the top 10 hype, i didnt even really see the first round hype but i did see that he had potential so ok ill bite on that, but he was still a far cry from elite as a prospect even if the potential was there. people throw around the term elite like nothing

no one wants to be known as "this years blaine gabbert" lol

Scotty D · 03-23-2012, 02:13 PM

Probably a 4th.

BeerBaron · 03-23-2012, 02:31 PM

I wouldn't trade a pile of dog **** for him. I'd give up picks to keep him off of my team.

No amount of coaching is going to "fix" him. He plays scared. You don't fix that.

CAA QB prospects tend to get grossly overdrafted. If you're a QB, I don't know why you'd sign with anyone else to represent you. Gabbert needed a metric **** ton of work before he ever should set foot on an NFL field, and now that he's been exposed early, I don't see him recovering.
