The Gabbert Tenure Begins




One day after pimping Gabbert on my WWT pickup list the Jags name him the starter next week. You most likely still have a chance to add him to your roster. But you don't want to wait and miss your opportunity. Like I said, I like Jake Locker more on a long-term basis. But Gabberts getting his shot now and time is a luxury that doesn't last in this game.

I don't see him putting up video game #'s like Cam Newton but he could be a decent bye week start for you in a couple of weeks. His supporting cast isn't bad and Jack Del Rio has to be on the hottest seat in the NFL coaching circle. The Jags may want to see Gabbert the rest of the season which could serve two purposes. They can tell if there investment this year has promise, or they could find out early that Gabbert isn't the answer, fire Del Rio and the new regime will have a great shot in the Andrew Luck sweepstakes. New regimes = new franchise qb's. Expect a heavy dose of MJD in the coming weeks.
