How the Los Angeles Rams can Emulate the Jaguars

Jacksonville has been bad. Actually, calling them bad may be an insult to the word as it comes as a surprise that they even won four games in 2013. Headed by poor quarterback the play (Chad Henne threw more interceptions than touchdowns while Blaine Gabbert was 0-3 as a starter with one touchdown against seven interceptions), the Jaguars needed to make a change. Sitting with the third overall pick, the Jags had their man ready: the 6’5″ 240 pound, Central Florida product who had just come off an dominant performance against a dominant Baylor program. Blake Bortles was a strong kid with an even stronger arm with unquestionable upside and was poised to lead the franchise to the golden heights that grace their helmets.
