Has the page turned on the Book?

I'd still like to see what Book could do with some normal starters in there.

We always go into the 90 man roster with four QB's it seems. I guess we'll see if we pick up another during the draft, although, I don't see the need with Winston the clear starter and Book as the development option. I see Bortles somewhere between backup/#2 and camp body.

Yep - some people here (speedo) wrote him off based on that one game he played with the JV team. The only thing we know is that we don't know. We drafted him - give him a real shot or give the roster spot to somebody else.

He was a Payton pick
He won't be on tbe roster by 2023 imo.

The book may have a different cover should we draft Pickett...

Gottta be honest I wouldn't be mad. If Jameis isn't the long term, and these days I don't think he is, then why not?

Are you suggesting it's open competition for #1QB? Or just for 2 and 3?

I would have gone with Trevor.

Man I think things would go downhill fast for the organization if they opened up competition for the starters spot again.
