doubling down on Bortles
Having to win a locker room by picking up the missing QB Foles
Benching the Hot hand because you have Foles

I am looking for not doubling down on stupid. Then the This player discussions will apply. This is a historically bad franchise. I wish it wasn't so.

Go go future successes

But we still had a fantastic O-Line between 1996-1999 without Ogden.  We had NOTHING defensively after the 1995 season.

Skipping out on Big Ben...a year after drafting a QB 7th overall before the rookie wage scale?!?  That would have been salary cap hell.  Certainly you could argue that we should not have taken BL in 2003 then taken Big Ben in 2004, but once we took BL in 2003, you had to get players to support him.  The team promptly botched that effort with Reggie Williams, Matt Jones, and the likes of Ephraim Salaam at LT.  

Doubling down on Bortles was clearly not good.  The most the team should have done with him is offer the 5th year option to let him prove it again.  But I'm ultimately glad we did what we did with him because it led to us getting Trevor Lawrence.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
