    I know none of the new contract details. I know that they previously had him for $19 million, on a one-year deal. What guaranteed amount the new contract offers I don't know.

    Now they're committed to paying him similarly for 3 more years. He may prove to be worth it, but he's being paid just outside of the top-ten salary wise (around 12th or 13th I think).

    Time will tell, I suppose.

    Key for bortles success, stop turning the ball over. Key to limiting bortles turnover, take the ball out of his hands.
    Key to winning SB, defense.

    Jags have the weapons to minimize the damage bortles can do with Fournette and a good defense. Just in case, they have a few WR targets that can help him out.

    Bortles is lower than average but probably is a starter. Jags are one of the few teams not spending half their cap on a QB.

    I don't think this is a bad signing. Sure there are upgrades for bortles, but who's available and at a decent price range as to not cause a total defense dismantling to pay him?

    Since bortles entered the league I'd say he's been better than Flaccid

    That's cool since he's an outside top 10 QB

    As bad as he's been he's still better than most

    Let’s just hope Bortles doesn’t have another year better than Mariota.

    Agree with that...I think that it is very unlikely at this point though.

    Better them than us here IMO....

    I almost feel bad for how bad they are. Like there's five other QBs they could get to upgrade, and they spend 20 million on this guy. lmao
