I think at that time he did what was best for this football team on all levels of that defense. He landed a talented CB, a prospect declared as the most true pure shut down cornerback since Revis. He landed Jack, another talented OLB prospect at that time that could have just as easily been a top ten selection on his own. And he absolutely stole Ngakoue in RD3.

Again though, is it Caldwell's fault that:

A. Ramsey was traded
B. Jack was extended and moved to ILB after splashing the most at OLB
C. Ngakoue hasn't seen a new deal yet

All of those moves so far reek of Coughlin's meddling. Not Caldwell's. . .

And believe me. I have HAMMERED him and this front office for some of these recent blunders with the roster and coaching staff but a lot of reports coming out now here locally all seem to indicate that it's a chasm between Coughlin and Marrone more than anything and Caldwell's pretty much caught in the middle of it.

Not sure if it was Caldwells fault that he was traded.  But if it was, it was one decision he got right being we got 2 1sts, a 4th, and Ramsey wants 20 mil a year.  No corner that is in the game right now is worth that.  That video did come up with Tunsil but he has been less of a problem than Ramsey has.  I cant think of any issues with Tunsil actually.
