Despite the Jags having multiple failed GMs accounting for a mountain of bad draft choices, I still believe it is the best way to build a roster.
It's just that landing a GM who can build that way effectively is probably about as difficult as finding a franchise QB in this league.
And we've seen how tough that has been for our team and many others around the league.

It's uncanny and unfortunate the way our GMs have been.

TC was good in picking first rounders, but pretty lousy picking after that, especially from the 3rd round down.

Shack was lousy in the first round, but good in the second and decent after that.

Gene Smith was lousy at everything.

After him,, Caldwell hit on some first rounders (Ramsey, Allen, arguably Fournette), got some impact at later parts of the draft, but miscalculated spectacularly at the QB posirtion (Bortles, skipping Watson and Mahomes) and sucked at player retention.

I don't feel good about Baalke and UM at all so far.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
