Blaine Gabbert Rumors & News

Listening to everyone’s favorite local radio station this afternoon, they asked the question, "Who will be the Jaguars’ break out player this year?" They went as far to say that it could be Blaine Gabbert based on the fact that there is a right tackle this year instead of a bop bag. Assuming he could have time in the pocket to go through his progressions, he should theoretically be able to go through his progressions and put the ball into a receiver’s hands. I think that if Blaine is to turn a corner, it will not be due to the 2013 second overall draft pick, Luke Joeckel (at least n...

The Jacksonville Jaguars are installing a brand new offense with new offensive coordinator Jedd Fisch and their OTA practices thus far have been reportedly up-tempo and feature a lot of no-huddle, which is something quarterback Blaine Gabbert seems to enjoy. "It’s very comfortable to me," Gabbert told reporters after practice on Tuesday. "I’m familiar with a lot of the concepts, the little things that I’ve done in the past. It’s been fun. We’re having a blast. It’s a fun time to be out here." The new fast paced offense appears to give the quarterback a lot of freedom, and in turn resp...

The biggest question going forward for the Jacksonville Jaguars offense is who will be starting at the quarterback position. We know that it will be an open competition and as it stands right now, third-year quarterback Blaine Gabbert is the likely favorite to win the gig. So how will the rest of the offense shake out? 1. It's unlikely one of the other quarterbacks on the roster usurps Gabbert prior to the start of the regular season. Chad Henne is still on the roster for now, but the way the team is operating it sounds like the starting job is Gabbert's to lose more than anything else...

The Jacksonville Jaguars passed on drafting a quarterback in the 2013 NFL Draft, instead bringing in Matt Scott and Jordan Rodgers as undrafted free agents. Going forward, the team has preached an open competition at the quarterback spot, but the odds on favorite to win the job is third-year quarterback and former first-round pick Blaine Gabbert. His biggest competition is going to be veteran Chad Henne, but last season in training camp Henne was terrible and he bombed out the rest of the season in 2012 once he took over the starting role. The bigger question that will be asked after t...

After shoring up the offensive line with the selection of a right tackle with the second overall pick, the table is set for Blaine Gabbert to start again in 2013 and he might be able to do so without much of a difficult competition, as Mark Long of the Associated Press reports the Jaguars have zero intention to take a quarterback with the first pick of the second round. It was previously speculated that the Jaguars were targeting either USC quarterback Matt Barkley or Syracuse quarterback Ryan Nassib with the top pick of the second round if they were to go unselected in the first 32 pi...

As it stands right now, former Jacksonville Jaguars first round pick Blaine Gabbert will be competing to be the starting quarterback in 2013. There are some flaws in Gabbert's overall game and he's been in a pretty poor situation his first two years in the NFL, admittedly, but even the situation may not correct his fatal flaws. "When the bodies are around him and the pocket starts collapsing and he's in the cauldron of fire... he can't play." -Greg Cosell By all accounts Gabbert is a smart player, who understands the playbook and defensive coverages, but he has massive issues in ...
