Caldwell out?

Right after Bradley was fired, I read that Khan felt the roster was stacked with talent. Caldwell accomplished that. So, it is doubtful he is about to be fired.
Quote:R J Soward? You like that pick? I like Tony Boselli, James Stewart, Kevin Hardy, Fred Taylor, Donovin Darius, Fernando Bryant, Marcus Stroud, and John Henderson. But let's focus on one of his other two first round picks.
Quote:Generally where there is smoke there is fire, but I think this is much ado about nothing. Caldwell is probably just meeting with him separately. I don't even see smoke here. It's [BLEEP] Alfie
IT WAS ALWAYS THE JAGS
Quote:R J Soward? You like that pick?Nobody hits on every pick, Bellicheck took Chad jackson in Round 1 too. Oh yeah, Dominique Easely too. I liked Boselli, Hardy, Bryant, Fred Taylor, Donovan Darius, Marcus Stroud, Henderson.All of those were at least solid starters if not stars. The only two he really didn't pan out on were Soward and James Stewart. Stewart had his moments though, injuries were his issue. Correction: Chad Jackson was 2nd round my bad! But even BB has bad picks.
Calling Deshawn Watson a future bust since 3/19/17. If I eat crow, I will keep this in here and proclaim JackCity a genius.

Quote:I like Tony Boselli, James Stewart, Kevin Hardy, Fred Taylor, Donovin Darius, Fernando Bryant, Marcus Stroud, and John Henderson.Do you realize he tried to trade away the picks he used for Fred Taylor and Donovan Darius? He wanted Curtis Enis. That is well documented. He's lucky the Bears turned him down. He also wanted to draft Lawrence Phillips but Wayne Weaver vetoed it.

Quote:Do you realize he tried to trade away the picks he used for Fred Taylor and Donovan Darius? He wanted Curtis Enis. That is well documented.Enis wasn't really a bad player. He had injury and character issues. It's hard to say for sure if Enis was a Jag that his career would have been terrible. It hardly seems fair to judge a coach based on the trades he did not make.

Marty, why are you so down on Coughlin? He took us to 2 AFC championship games within 5 years of the team even being a thing. He won 2 Superbowls against the vaunted Cheatriots. The guy is a good coach, period.

Quote:Enis wasn't really a bad player. He had injury and character issues. It's hard to say for sure if Enis was a Jag that his career would have been terrible. It hardly seems fair to judge a coach based on the trades he did not make. Enis and Phillips were both very highly graded, which is why they were drafted where they were. Its a stretch to criticize a GM for liking consensus top 5 picks more than the picks available in the 20s... And even more so to be criticized for someone else's consensus top five bust.

When you have star players with character issues, it is always rolling the bones and hoping for the best. Sometimes you get Randy Moss, Cam Newton, or Janoris Jenkins. Other times you get RJ Soward, Justin Blackmon, Lawrence Phillips, or Johnny Manziel. Hindsight is always 20/20 but I am of the opinion we should judge coaches/gms based on the rosters they did make instead of the imaginary what if rosters they didn't.
1999 Jaguars were 14-2 and the #1 seed in the AFC under Coughlin. They beat Dan Marino's Dolphins 62-7 (I was there!). I would say that Coughlin's roster was great. He also was good at evaluating veteran free agents. He missed on Nickerson and Paup, but Carnell Lake, Clyde Simmons, Leon Searcy, Kyle Brady, Natron Means... he was pretty good at telling who still had something left in the tank.

Coughlin hit on most of his first round picks.
He stunk in the later rounds. He got the Jags to the AFC Championship game (but not the Superbowl) by mortgaging the future. We were very lucky to get bailed out by the Texans in the expansion draft; otherwise the whole roster would have been gutted. He was the biggest advocate for Gene Smith. He was a good coach for the Giants who won two Superbowls. Maybe as a coach he can get the Jags into the Superbowl. But I don't want him running the team from a management position.

Caldwell built a glass house? Sounds like a BCC article.

Martineau shot this story down this afternoon on the Frangie show. Kahn didn't meet separately with Coughlin. Caldwell was there according to Brent's sources, which are almost certainly more reliable than Alfie's opinion.
Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

You either die as a good poster, or live long enough to become the troll.

I know for a fact Tom never wanted Lawrence Philips. I heard him say it myself at a birthday party for Wayne Weaver at Epping Forest Yacht Club. Regards..................the Chiefjag
