I think Baalke as a talent evaluator can be easily summed up with the phrase "when is the last time he got significant value in a draft pick?"

He's taken some good players, but never for value. He has had decent first round picks, but none of them have outperformed their draft position. In the second round his only decent pick has been Campbell, and that was 33 overall. At that position you should still be getting a guy that had borderline first round ability, or even just straight up first round ability. Other than Campbell his second and third round picks have been utter trash, and after that it mostly gets worse.

Baalke is an indictment of Khan. A great owner would have flushed him with Caldwell. A good owner would have flushed him with urban. A decent owner would have flushed him this year.

That Baalke is still here speaks volumes about how little Khan actually cares about winning.
