Some things I took away from the transcript of the Fan Forum:

 

  1. Caldwell is trying to maintain a "big picture" frame of mind when it comes to player acquisition - The reason I believe that is from the quote "I think it'd be more difficult to take the wrong QB at 3. You can see how that can set back an organization. It's really important to us to make a great organizational decision there. I believe our vision and philosophy was to continue to build this roster and make a really good team. In the mean time, if a QB presents itself to us that we're all on board with, we will pull the trigger.
    " Emphasis was added by me. Caldwell is very aware of the impact of taking the wrong player when other options exist at different positions. He went on in that quote to cite the building process that Denver and San Francisco went through, and how a good/great Quarterback was added to an already stacked roster. I hope he is successful with his drafting.
  2. He is aware of needing starters from Rounds One through Three - A-duh, but that's glib. The weak situation of the roster forces new players to become starters. This puts a lot of pressure on the General Manager's team since they need to have quality production come out of their Day One and Two picks. Again, I hope he is successful with his drafting.
  3. He has an interesting view of how teams look to improve themselves - And it isn't one that I disagree with, I just never thought of it his way. In his quote "The value only comes if there's a demand for a pick and there may not be demand for a pick. For example, it may be a good OT year and teams may say well, there's no need to trade up because I'll take the 3rd best OT and upgrade. Or it might be a really good DE or WR year and a team says 'Well.. Maybe if I can't (hypothetically) get Sammy Watkins I can take another player in the 2nd rd and still get better.' Or, conversely it might be a really bad QB year and a team will say I have to trade up to get my guy
    ." I feel like Caldwell thinks that Teams look to improve, but at a cost. They understand that some players are better than others, but that the less talented guy may still be able to help, simply at a lower cost.
  4. Austin Pasztor's nickname is "Frenchie" - I have no comment here, I just wanted to point that out.
I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!
