These videos are fun to watch for NFL fans and thanks for sharing, but his primary "why" was the Maason Smith pick and then later mentioned "countless" bad picks and "limiting which coaches would take a HC job here".  I disagree on the drive by "countless" bad picks remark and it remains to be seen whether Baalke's presence will really prevent the Jags from landing their top preference at HC.  He went on a lengthy discourse about Maason Smith who didn't show up until the end of the season and held him up against Fiske who had a good rookie campaign as his primary "why".  I just don't destroy a player or the GM who selected him based on the player's rookie year.  Way too early for that.  Anything you get out of a rookie is gravy in my eyes.  Expectations coming in should be low though.  His primary "why" from what can be discerned without inside knowledge of the internal politics within the building should have been the free agent class from last year which he made no mention of.

This commenter's video, though well produced, comes off as someone whose source is the echo chamber of social media.  He also mentioned how attractive the Jacksonville situation is which as I've mentioned previously is actually a compliment to the person or people currently responsible for making it such.  Obviously much of that is regarding already having your QB in Trevor, but some of that would have to also be the rest of the roster which Baalke should get some credit for.
