I am on record as saying I would have totally cleaned house at the end of last season, but at the same time my gut tells me that Caldwell actually has the potential to be one of the best GMs in the league. Basically I'm full of [BLEEP] and don't know what to think anymore.

I really wonder if Khan's decision to retain Dave (and seemingly not just for one year) was influenced by inside knowledge of the moves that Dave would have made in the last few years that would have been different to the ones Coughlin made. For example, if it was common knowledge amongst the team's top brass in 2017 that Caldwell would have targeted Mahomes or Watson, but Coughlin overruled him to pick LF. That's the kind of thing, if Khan's was aware of it, that would massively change the perception of Caldwell. He could legitimately make the point to Khan that if he hadn't put Coughlin in place, and had let Dave follow his original plan, this team would be in a much better place. I know there are a bunch of rumors about this exact situation, but I guess we will never know the real truth. Still, it does seem that Khan knows, or at least thinks, something different to what us fans have been privy to.

I think i read somewhere Dave wanted CC, who is one of the best players in the league behind a average at best oline.  CC is who I wanted as well.  Jamal Adams or CC was my 2 guys
