David Garrard is like Mount Rushmore. It's impressive the first time you see it, but every year when you go back it seems like nothing changed. In fact, it might seem like it deteriorated in some aspects. Garrard’s stats from 2008 might as well have been slotted into the 2009 books before the season ever started because not a single category that matters changed in the slightest. Never mind that he had one of the best running backs in the league behind him in Maurice Jones-Drew, and never mind that he had one of the best up-and-coming receivers lining up on the outside for him in Mike Sims-Walker; still, nothing changed. Garrard proved himself to be a mediocre quarterback at best in 2009, and the likelihood of him ever rising above that assessment in the future, especially at the age of 32, is slim to none.
~ Ranked 15th in the league in QB fantasy points with 218.2 (basic scoring system)
~ Ranked 22nd in the league with 15 passing touchdowns
~ Ranked 17th in the league with a 83.5 QB Rating
~ Ranked 15th in the league with a 60.9% completion percentage
~ Ranked 18th in the league with 224.8 passing yards per game
~ Ranked 16th in the league with 314 completions
~ Ranked ninth in the league with 516 attempts
~ Ranked 16th in the league with 3,597 passing yards
~ Ranked 17th in the league in yards/attempt (6.97)
~ Ranked first in the league in rushing yards for a QB (323 yards)
~ Tied for second in the league in rushing TDs for a QB (3)
~ Tied for fourth in the league for the most amount of sacks taken (42) by a QB who started at least ¾ of his team’s games
~ Set career bests in rushing yards (323) and tied a career best in rushing TDs (3)
Take a look at Garrard’s last two years worth of stats and you’ll know exactly what you are going to get in 2010 if your draft him to your fantasy team. It’s possible his numbers could rise a slight bit due to having a full year under his belt with resident studs MJD and Mike Sims-Walker, but the rise would still only take him into the “decent” fantasy backup quarterback range.
~ The Jaguars will likely start to use Maurice Jones-Drew more efficiently in 2010, so that could hurt Garrard
~ If Mike Sims-Walker and Mike Thomas step it up this year, Garrard could increase his fantasy value to high-end backup status
~ In the end, the Jaguars are still the Jaguars

Not only can he play football at a consistent level year-in and year-out, but he apparently can also cook. We will be the first to admit that we never saw Rachael Ray appear on this website, but without further ado, here's the dip that Garrard made for Ray's show before the Super Bowl in 2009.
And here's a link to the recipe for those die-hard Jags fans out there.
Some say this is the best play in the Jags brief history given the circumstances and the occasion. It certainly put them in field goal range as time ran down in the 2008 Wild Card round of the playoffs. You be the judge. One thing is fo sho tho, Garrard is fast.
In April of '08, Garrard inked a six-year contract extension worth $60 million. The deal contained $18 million guaranteed along with a $9 million signing bonus. Here's how it shakes out:
2010 - $7.975 million
2011 - $7.975 million
2012 - $8.475 million
2013 - $8.975 million
2014 - Free Agent
Garrard has had quite a tumultuous path to get where he is today. One year after the Jags drafted in to be the successor to the only starting QB the franchise had in Mark Brunell, they fired their coach Tom Coughlin and got a new GM, James Harris. Harris proceeded to draft Byron Leftwich in 2003, the year after Garrard was drafted, with the seventh overall pick. Despite obviously feeling betrayed, Garrard stuck with the team after having a chance to leave in 2004 and it paid off. Leftwich, unable to stay healthy, was hurt for various games year after year, and after filling in for all those sporadic games, Garrard finally won the starting job for good in 2007. In that year, he tied an NFL record by throwing only 3 interceptions on 325 attempts. Not bad for a guy playing with Chron's disease. Yet, in his two full years as a starter, he’s 12-20 and might be given the exit before the Jags relocate to Los Angeles (it’s just a rumor, but it will happen).
Garrard has played in every game over the past two seasons. He's good to go
