Wasn't TC the guy who brought in Bryce Paup & Hardy Nickerson?

 

Wasn't TC the guy who drafted Soward, DeMarco, Schwartz, Deligianis, Anthony Cesario, etc?

 

 

Edit:  I only addressed half of his complaints.

 

I submit Caldwell has actually drafted well, even though the results have not been there. 

 

If you examine his drafts, you will see lots of good individual performances, both on a game by game basis and over the course of a season.

 

Telvin Smith won two defensive players of the week awards.  Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns (though undrafted), both had 1000 yard seasons for the Jaguars-something that wasn't seen  since Jimmy Smith (as an individual receiver) and as a duo going back to 2001.  Linder was the best interior OL drafted by this team since Manuwai.  We got a brand new rookie sack record from Ngakoue.  Ramsey looks like he will be a great CB for many years to come.  Before regressing and getting injured last year, Greene was looking like a very good punt returner.  This doesn't even count Myles Jack, whom the couches could not figure out how to get on the field.

 

Free agency shows good signings in Senderrick Marks,  Malik Jackson, Prince Amukumara

 

That tells me the lack of overall success-especially last year-is more attributable to coaching than the innate talent on the team.

 

We never got anything close to this from Gene Smith's drafts.
