Quote:No, it's not a good thing.

 

I suspect Caldwell is too smart to throw a ton of money at anyone when it's clearly the QB driving the success, but not every team is smart enough to follow New England's lead on that front.

 

Shorts is a good player, but if he's making Golden Tate money it should be with another team.

 

Why isn't it a good thing? 

 

If you just said that Caldwell is too smart to be duped, other teams/ GM might not be.....so either, the Jags will be able to capitalize off this via inflated trade values or via letting WR like Shorts (or similar) walk as an UFA and then benefiting from other teams overpaying on that contract which helps to land Jax higher compensatory selections. 

 

If there is a WR worth keeping (i.e. legit WR1 type), I think Caldwell will be smart enough to decipher.
