That is an article that was wrote in 2012. It is now 2014. After 2 drafts by GM Dave Caldwell, the Jaguars have gone 4-12, and are now 1-10 and are in real contention for the #1 pick in the draft. This franchise is building from the ground, literally, the ground, up.


If you'd kindly take a look at the link I provided, you can see Gene Smith had a .153 batting average. Gene Smith was so bad at drafting players, he hit on 4/26 players in his time as General Manager. No game changers. He was no better in Free Agency, either.


F/A Signings:

2009 - Holt, Tra, Thomas, Considine.

2010 - Kampman, Osgood, Keiaho.

2011 - Poz, Roth, Landre, Session, Coleman, Turk.

2012 - Robinson, Ross.


I don't know about you, but that makes me puke. This is going to take time, and this is the reason. I don't know if Bradley is the guy or not. None of us do. But nobody can be the guy until David Caldwell starts funneling the talent into the roster. Nobody would win with this roster.

Well said. I want to type this out every time read something but people still won't understand


We have no talent besides what Caldwell has accumulated. However talented they are, we are indeed starting from NOTHING


I think Gus is doing great a great job. He's keeping the spirits of the team up. And as of right now that is his job because of the lack of talent there isn't much to do
