Gardner Minshew II – Quarterback 

Gardner Minshew II, the young sixth-round pick out of Washington State, played well above all the expectations that were placed upon him at the beginning of this season. Minshew had some very memorable plays and games this season. He hasn’t been perfect but a good game this week could secure his place as the starter for next season and it might put to rest the Jaguars worries about drafting another quarterback at least for another season.

However, if he struggles this week it may mean Jacksonville will look to draft a quarterback and still opens the door for a competition at the position in camp.

I think with all the controversy that Gardner has been through so far this season he will play well, throw over 250 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions.
