I just worry our front office is too desperate and could do it.... #becauseJaguars Our F.O. has actually been very smart with 90% of their fa signings from a value perspective. There no reason to think they’ll throw stupid money at a guy that seemingly isn’t being meaningfully bid on by other teams currently. If the numbers are too high, they can simply sign a more mid tier vet and draft QB to challenge him. So they really have no need to be remotely desperate.

He's not going to find a better fit to go than here, hopefully we take advantage of that We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Analytics just means you have more/better info to help with your choice. Tanner Lee for instance, would have showed TONs of red flags analytically , but the decision makers still took him because they saw something there (03-09-2019, 08:19 PM)JackCity Wrote:(03-09-2019, 08:09 PM)Jags Wrote: We’ll agree to disagree then. I can’t say it hasn’t helped. But I surely wouldn’t say it’s making a difference. I don’t disagree with you there. I understand Tony is a grown [BLEEP], smart man with an education and has a business or two under his belt (or more). But I still question his contributions to the team. Right or wrong, I still view him as the owner’s kid that acts like a boy in the box. It wasn’t until he came along until we heard about the analytics of the game. Perhaps he has contributed in finding some of the talent in the later rounds of drafts. We don’t know. I don’t mean to knock Tony, but I feel he has some skills that may not be the best for a role in the organization but he certainly has the enthusiasm as a younger man that has some ownership in the team.

I fully expect Foles' price tag to be in that range and I fully expect the Jags to pay it. I'll hate it, but I expect it to happen.

Funnily enough a lot of Fulham fans hate Tony Khan for that reason, he's totally unqualified to be running a football club, as evidenced by this season. But analytics have been around much longer than Tony Khan. The eagles use it a ton, Belichick uses it a ton, it just means extra and more advanced data being available , which literally every single team in the league should want used. It's not something to be suspicious of its benefits. (03-09-2019, 08:52 PM)JackCity Wrote:Ultimately, I feel it is still on the GM.

Analytics are tool for evaluation like any other tool. They can be better or worse depending on how they are designed but no single tool will be really be able to encapsulate any athlete. NFL like the NBA has so many variables that have not been well characterized until the last decade or so and are difficult to isolate from other variables, unlike in the MLB. Also there are far few sample sizes compared to a 162 game season. NFL and NBA will get there eventually, but it will take time. 2. All evaluation tools are based on past results. As a result, they can never be 100% when used for predictions. They can be used to get better predictions, but you will never always be accurate. |
