Philadelphia QB Donovan McNabb has been rumored to be traded all across the league during the last week. St. Louis, Buffalo, Oakland, but what about a trade to Jacksonville? Well this is what the Jaguars Stadium looked like last year:

So how close is Jack Del Rio to the hot seat? Why not roll the dice this year and see what happens? Are jags fans happy with Garrard at the QB position? I don’t think so, and I think a draft day trade of the Jaguars #74 pick and the second round pick in 2011 might be enough to swing a deal.
Why not pull a trigger on such a deal? The Jags aren’t getting fans in the seats, reports early on were about the Jaguars wanting to draft Tim Tebow out of the University of Florida to fill the seats. Ownership conducted a poll of season ticket holders, and Jags fan didn’t want the Jaguars to draft Tebow.
Why not fill the seats with a Pro Bowl quarterback? This team went 7-9 last season and has the offensive talent of Maurice Jones-Drew.

The Jaguars suffered from very shaky play from the quarterback position last season, with Garrard only throwing 15 touchdowns. A trade for McNabb would boost that number by 12. The emerging wide receiver that no one knows about, Mike Sims Walker, is about to explode onto the scene this coming year if he has a quarterback who can deliver the ball.
So why not pull the strings and make the trade? You play in the AFC South, with Peyton Manning and Matt Schaub in Houston. The ball is flying around your division, Garrard isn’t getting it done. A quarterback tossing 15 scores isn’t going to win the AFC South division. And if you can’t win your division, you aren’t going to compete for the Super Bowl.
So as the empty seats await in Jacksonville for 2010, grow a pair and make a move. If you want fans in the seats, make a commitment and go after a proven winner. Otherwise, sit there at #10 in the first round and continue to select failed draft choices and maybe next year, the tarps can cover portions of the 200 level.
