I'd add to this by saying that if a new HC is added and Baalke is retained, that new HC may again have personnel control with Baalke acting as a facilitator. 

Not that I want any of these scenarios involving Baalke in Duval, just trying to prepare myself for how it might go down and seek a glimmer of hope.

I would also add that it's also still possible that the Jaguars hire a "VP of Football Operations" to effectively be the GM with Baalke effectively just being an assistant.  I agree that I would rather Baalke completely gone, but the point is that there are still a lot of unknowns and possibilities.  Just because the Jaguars didn't target top tier free agents last year doesn't mean that they won't this year.
