plenzmd1 Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 First off, I'm a JP guy. Not ready to throw him under the bus yet, but just for grins lets speculate. From everything I read, ole Byron just about done in Jacksonville. Now, I personally do not think hes all that, but what about all you JP haters out there. Just curious, would you rather have him or JP. And if Leftwich, how much will it cost to get him? I believe next year is his last under contract, so you would have to give him an extension as well, so what would you pay him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Fong Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I heard a weird thing about Leftwich the other day on Sirius NFL. He's 6'4" and has size 8 shoes. The speculation is that those dainty feet are part of the reason he has so much trouble with his ankle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JStranger76 Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I haven't seen him play since our opener a couple years back. It seems he has been injured an aweful lot. Although he has a cannon for an arm, he is not a very mobile QB, so I don't think he would fare too well here. If we had a better line I would trade for him, but to do it now the price would be too steep at the expense of other positions that need to be adressed. To answer your question, if we had a better line I would trade for him. Only a 2nd rounder though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike1011 Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 He needs too much time to throw, his motion is too long, and he needs to much (e.g. Bledsoe) to be successful. Take away his D-fense and he's average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Brady Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I've thought the same thing, but then realize that, it would just be a move sideways because we have a cannon armed qb that can actually run. Byron has a better surrounding cast and thats what this team needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrobot Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Leftwich: Lower completion percentage, lower yards per completion, fewer 20+ plays, fewer 40+ plays, tiny lead feet, benefactor of great field position from his defense. No. Here's a link to the JAX board "Trade Byron Leftwich thread: Linky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBob2232 Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Worth a first round pick. We havent spend one on a quarterback for a couple years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Great--let's spend our 4th first round pick in less than a decade on a QB (Johnson, Bledsoe, Losman, and ??Leftwich/B Quinn). The only successful QB we have had in a decade is Flutie who was a non-draft pick from the CFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Depends on what you can get him for, he would be an option, he isn't that bad as a QB, and could be a valid replacement for KH and could compete with JP in Training camp for the starting job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
