    Maholmes is the closest comp to Love in most ways, except for accuracy and ability to read a D. One of those can be improved. Also, that comp is probably the reason Gutes went up and got him. By seasons end we should have a much better read on most of our offensive skill position guys. All the first year guys (Love included) have shown some improvement. All have also made ugly gaffes.
    I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.

    I think Blake Bortles is a much better comp. Huge arm, athletic, prone to throwing off-balance and not at all accurate. NFL.com had it right

    If not for the cheaters Bortles would possibly have a ring. I also was always much higher on Bortles than others. Our resident genius, Nate Hacket broke him (just like he is finishing off Zack Wilson instead of improving him).

    I had been avoiding saying it but 100% agree. He plays a similar funky, awkward style that makes it hard for defenses to calibrate on him.
