Dave Caldwell deserves credit if team plays continues to play well

#7

I dunno...
Bortles is still a big question mark. And right now, if he continues to play well, I think that credit would go to Marrone/Hack for using him in a much more managerial role instead of letting him sling it around.

However... It can not be ignored that (disregarding J. Ram, an easy selection and LF a sure fire Coughlin selection) DFJ is playing well, Jack is looking beastly, Smith and Colvin are really good, and signing Bouye, Campbell, Church, Jackson were all home runs after kinda selecting stop gap players early on.
I almost forgot to mention Yannick a budding star.
I've always said overall he's done a fairly good job.
But 3 misses in Luke, Blake, and Bradley have hung a dark cloud over his tenure.
If Bortles can be serviceable beyond this season, his job is probably safe... but I think he is tied to Bortles directly so if Bortles goes, Caldwell does too, imo.

It's unfortunate.... but sometimes franchises move on from GMs who have seemingly done well when they don't see eye to eye with certain people in power. (i.e. Dorsey/Reid from KC)
