Up and coming best GM?

Best up and coming GM?

Maybe.

 

Here's the dealio.... Yr 1 Rookie GM hires Rookie coach and decides to start a plan that is rarely done in "Cut, Gut, Start from Scratch, and re-tool"

The overall talent pool of 2013's draft was weak. He could have done better, made some wiser choices, but for us, hindsight is a beautiful thing.

But some free agents brought in have been very good for us. Some have missed; which is almost always the case with any GM.

Yr 2, he probably has one of the best drafts and offseasons the Jags have seen, and probably up there with best evers from anyones..... but it is still early and lots could change.

Year 3 was a mixed bag, our first round selection was hurt, our FA TE was hurt and a non factor for most of the season. Other injuries exposed a lack in depth and play-makers on the Dline is still an eye sore. 

 

People dog the signings of certain guys like Clem and Red, but in year 2 those guys had this defense over-achieving which left you guys thinking it should be better than it was this year. 

Caldwell just needs to hit this year, a solid FA class. The draft will unfold however it does... but with 2 or 3 key FAs on the defensive side of the ball this won't even be a question.

 

I dare anyone to point out a GM that hasn't signed some free agents looking for a pass rush and missed.

 

I don't know if he is the best GM, or the best young GM or up and comer.....

But he's the best we've seen since the TC days....and he's better than whatever has been happening in places like Cleveland and New Orleans as of recently.

 

And I ain't interested in starting over with some other guys vision.... This one actually looks pretty good (despite the losing records).
