#3 Jacksonville Jaguars: Teddy Bridgewater, QB UL
Rory’s Take: I have read that the Jaguars are high on Manziel, but they also interviewed Bridgewater. People mention Gus Bradley wanting a Russell Wilson type quarterback like his mentor in Seattle has, but comparing Manziel to Wilson is missing the forest through the trees. Just because they are short doesn’t mean they are similar quarterbacks. Teddy is a much better talent and general Manager Jim Caldwell was with the Falcons when they drafted Matt Ryan and Teddy is very similar to him.
Chase’s Take: Jacksonville would have no problem taking Bridgewater if he fell to them, which is looking possible as it seems the Texans aren’t as high on him as you would think.
