2020's class was bad. Caldwell had a number of clunkers outside of that one. 2016 was his lone bright spot and that entire class was essentially blown the [BLEEP] up because of ego and additional bad decision making by other personnel in the front office. They could have drafted Wirfs at RT and Jefferson at WR in 2020 and given Minshew a puncher's chance as a cap friendly QB for a few years while you addressed other areas of need. Baalke's biggest mistake has been the way he's built the team. He went after skill position players in various markets instead of going after proven commodities to address the offensive line.

When you look at the driving force of today's best teams in the NFL? It's all because of their investments made on the offensive line. Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Buffalo, Seattle & Los Angeles continued to add lineman as early and as often as possible over the years to keep their core offense intact philosophically at least. Since day one with Baalke and Pederson. This team has been in a constant midlife crisis state looking for it's identity.
