The Jaguars are on the clock thanks to this mybookie.ag original analysis on the top five questions surrounding Jacksonville heading into training camp. So if you’re looking to get some NFL betting action this coming season, and wish to know what’s in store for young signal-caller Blake Bortles and the Jacksonville Jaguars (3-13 SU, 6-9-1 ATS, 8-8 O/U) as they get set for the upcoming 2015 season, then you’re in for a treat. With that said, let’s get this party started.
Will Blake Bortles improve?
Yes…I fully expect Blake Bortles to improve on the mostly pedestrian campaign he had as a rookie in 2014. I know the No. 3 overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft struggled more than expected while completing just 58.9 percent of his passes and throwing 17 interceptions versus a modest 11 touchdown passes, but the fact of the matter is that Bortles didn’t have much talent surrounding him at the skill positions last season. I expect the additions of rookie running back T.J. Yeldon and wide receiver Rashad Greene will help, but I’m still not very enamored with starting wide receivers Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns. Jacksonville really needs to surround Bortles with some quality skill position players to ensure that he doesn’t end up like former first round pick Blaine Gabbert.Where does Denard Robinson fit in?
Despite the fact that former Michigan quarterback-turned running back Denard Robinson didn’t make a single start for the Jags last season, he still managed to lead the team in rushing with 582 yards and a solid 4.3 yards-per-carry average. Robinson topped the 100-yard plateau twice last season, but unfortunately, the Jaguars only gave Robinson more than 20 carries just once in 2014. Robinson will backup starter Toby Gerhart and should see ample time as arguably the team’s best threat to score any time he touches the ball.
