It's actually pretty great how generally transparent Caldwell is compared to what I perceive as the norm.
Marrone has taken a similar approach also - which has been great. His pressers are very entertaining.
A few key quips I liked from this Caldwell chat:

• The amount of players (hundreds) Caldwell personally sifts through from a scouting perspective is pretty impressive. 
  
• The comment on needs vs BAP was crystal clear and meshes with my prior expectation of their philosophy. 
  
• Caldwell: not surprised Lamar Jackson went in round one. 
  
• On Bortles:  This is his team. Want to see more of the consistency he showed in the second half of last season all year long. 
  
• Response to London dig:  "I know our owner is committed to Jacksonville and you know that too."
  

The timeline and how it breaks down starting in April was informative.

I found the BAP/Need process is how I expected it to be, as well.  It would have been nice to have this information back during the various BAP/Need debates in years past.

No he wasn't surprised he went round 1, but also said he wouldn't have picked him.

Part of me wishes Caldwell, or someone, would have popped Florio upside his head.
