I lament the fact that Caldwell picked another First round bust. What is that like 3 now. And yet everyone will defend it to the ends of time. It’s obvious when watching Fournette how limited he is. He’s a battering ram that can’t sustain even one season at this level. He won’t last long and he’s already showing signs of chronic injury. 

 That doesn’t help anyone out on this team accomplish an offensive rhythm. This team will not accomplish what it wants till Caldwell is removed. You can’t miss on top five picks and Caldwell routinely does it. Fournette was a major reach. Sadly he’s not helping the jags offense progress because he’s a liability.

Your opinion is lacking facts.

Joeckel- 1st round bust-yes
Bortles- TBD
Fowler- TBD (in his 2nd playing season)
Ramsey- HOFer
Fournette- TBD (Rookie)

Factually, that's 1/5 first round picks for Caldwell that are busts so far.  You have to fairly give guys 3 seasons before declaring them a bust. 

Even if you want to declare Bortles a bust (which I think is naive) that would still only be 2/5 first round picks as a bust at this point.

Top 5 picks are supposed to be franchise level players. The only one on that list that routinely plays like it is Jalen. 

But to stay on topic I’m not disputing that Fournette is a generational talent. I’m arguing that he’s not one in the nfl. He doesn’t fit this team offensively as constructed. He’s not pulling his wait and you can’t use the injury excuse. He was injured in college and now injured in the nfl. The fact that the Jags play and win without him multiple games is a judge sign they don’t need him. They don’t get any rhythm with him playing. If that’s not a sign he was a bad pick I don’t know what is.
