Quote:Looking at Caldwells record it's hard for him to find talent in the draft as well.  I understand he wants to build through the draft but the Jaguars are a unique situation.  This team is so far from being a good team the draft is not enough.  Right now this team looks atleast 3 drafts away from being a playoff team.  I don't know if Khan or the fans will continue to be patient.  Thie team needs help while I do agree it's hard to find studs in Free Agency there are often times good players on the market.  This team has passed on some chances to improve this team.

 

I think Caldwell has done well in the draft overall. Not perfect, but who is? 

 

He's found a pair of good starting CB in McCray and Colvin (or soon to be starter). 

 

He's brought in a solid rookie WR entire starting 3. (again, or soon to be) 

 

He's found a really good rookie RG and I think what will prove to be good Center. 

 

He found one of the 3 future LB in Telvin. 

 

Gratz and Cyprien at the very least will be good depth even if this is the best they are. 

 

Bortles to me looks like he could be a really good QB in this league matched up with an OC that actually plays to the big armed QB's strengths. 

 

Ryan Davis and Branch aren't Caldwell picks, but are definitely part of the future in some fashion, I'd think. Sen Derrick Marks has been outstanding. 

 

I don't see Caldwell as an issue really much at all, to be honest. 

 

He even did the questionable FA of Beadles and Gerhart right - as they both can be cut after one season with minimal impact capwise.
