If Henne were to falter in any way, expect the blogs and fans to go crazy calling for Bortles to play.

The expectations behind Borltes is going to be big. The team moved to get their quarterback early in the draft and he will have to lead that team to some wins.

The team will need to find him some weapons to work with though. Bortles won’t be able to do it all on his own and that may be a reason why Henne works through the first season as a starter. Henne will get beat up a little bit while they wait to get some playmakers on the roster.
