Ridley Speculated to Hit Free Agency

No. 

What I expect is to have a competent GM who can draft correctly and manage a roster correctly so the Jags don’t need to get into a bidding war.

Tacks made an offer that the Jags shouldn’t have matched. That’s not my point. My point is that he hasn’t drafted a WR for Trevor since he’s been here and boat loads of good ones have come out. The Oline is old (outside of Anton), pass rush is a problem still and so is the secondary. Trevor will once again have to carry this franchise. And what’s worse, a true building block like Josh Allen might actually play on the tag. 

Gabe Davis is a very good WR2 but he’s been playing with an elite route runner in Diggs. Now he’s got Zay on the other side? No defense is out there worried about Zay Jones and Gabe Davis. 

Just look at the the Jags drafts the last few years.  What was the plan? To get more linebackers? Nailed it! 

Since he’s horrible at drafting, he has to patch through FA (second time in 3 years). They have 3 plays who I consider true building blocks (Trevor, Travon, Anton). That’s really bad.

Next year, Trevor gets his big contract and then what? They can’t spend in FA like this and they have to rely on good drafting and savvy pickups. Neither one of those things are in Baalkes wheel house.

I understand your frustrations and have expressed my own dissatisfaction with Baalke, but we shouldn’t wait until after the draft before casting final judgement?
