Quote:Why should he be fired. For taking one of the best offensive prospects in years? For taking a weapon for the offense which needs help? Next year's draft doesn't offer a whole lot for offense. Couple WR's and a couple RB's. Very few OL players as well if you decide to complain about the line. The projected top half of the draft is defensive linemen or pass rushing LB's. Why not grab a weapon that the offense could most likely rely on if something happens to the pass game. Such as WRs or even Bortles becoming injured.

Guess which offensive position helps the defense the greatest? A running back. The reason for this is the clock keeps running. The clock doesn't stop like it will on an incomplete pass. More time used means less playing time for the defense.

Caldwell has not failed since arriving here like some want to believe. Free Agency, the players get to choose if they want to accept the deal or if it will be a good fit. Caldwell does his job and brings them in. Draft, he has gotten players who are playing on this team. If you would like to say Joeckel, he was the top rated OT in the draft when selected. He has gotten players trying to fix the issues with the team. He knew the line would probably be an issue still when grabbing Gerhart. He got the guy most deemed as a power back. Gerhart has been battling an injury the whole year so far.

If anything, I would say if you want to be mad at someone, I would get mad at our Strength and Conditioning Staff, OL Coach, and our Offensive coordinator.

Gurley is a great prospect, but he is a running back. It's a passing league and every single asset should go towards stopping the opposing QB and protecting ours. We should look no further than the teams in our division and see how they have fared. Foster has been great (UDFA, btw), but where has he gotten them and now they're paying him a ton. CJ2K had some great seasons that got them nowhere and then they paid him and now he is what he is. Then there is TRich. Running backs have such a short self life, just not worth it. Then if they turn out to what you hope they are, you're gonna have to spend a pretty penny to keep him. Plus, you can find them anywhere. Look no further to the leader rookie rushers this year. Both UDFAs.
