Jaguars Might Bring In A Veteran Backup Quarterback

New offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski suggested Friday the Jaguars might bring in an experienced quarterback as a backup to help mentor Blaine Gabbert, who struggled in his rookie season. “It’s always great to have a veteran quarterback around him, and I’m not sure where we’re at with that at this point,” Bratkowski said. “But to have those other set of eyes that would help him in his development could be important. I’m sure we’ll look at that as we move forward.” Bratkowski compared it to when he was in Cincinnati in 2003 and had veteran Jon Kitna mentoring Carson Palmer. “He played Carson’s first year,” Bratkowski said. “Carson got to sit and watch and then the next year he became Carson’s set of eyes on the sidelines and in practice. If you ask Carson to this day, he’s going to tell you that Jon Kitna was very influential, was a great help to him.” Among the possible free agents the Jaguars could look at are Kyle Orton and Jake Delhomme.

yep, Brat has his job cut out trying to salvage Gabbert.

I guess I'm in the minority on this one. Everyone else says Brat is great with QB's but Palmer never impressed me much in Cincy and he pretty much inherited a successful QB in Matt Ryan that performed equally well under Brat versus his year previous.

If Gabbert ever becomes another more then a total bust, then I'll shave Dickie V's head.

Better idea: Draft Kellen Moore

Show Gabbert what a really shitty QB looks like

"You see how all of Kellens pass's are in the shape of rainbows, Blaine? That is how you fail at QB in this league"
