Worst draft related blunder in Jaguars history?
|
After watching the Indy-Denver game, I think my vote for Beating the clots in 2012 was correct.

Quote:Darren Sproles is better than Pearman; HOWEVER, he's not an every down back. He's a speedster who rarely breaks off big plays. And we ended up with MJD the next season. Just something I noticed while looking at the 2005 draft (weak draft). Biggest blunder? No, but Sproles has been pretty impact full everywhere he has been.

Quote:Maybe true, but the impact on the team was minimal. It's likely the player he would have picked instead of Anger wouldn't be on the team right now. There is no way for you to know that. And regardless, you dont pick a punter in the 3rd round. Period. SInce you want to put it that way. How many Pro bowls has Anger been to? He was drafted in the 3rd round, he should be in every probowl (I know we are in a small market).

The thing about Anger is -- he's not even that great of a punter.
I was wrong about Trent Baalke.
Quote:The thing about Anger is -- he's not even that great of a punter. But the sound of the ball coming off his foot was the most impressive of any punter in NFL history. Think of The Sound!

Quote:The thing about Anger is -- he's not even that great of a punter. This is where the main problem lies. If the dude was pinning guys behind the 5 every time and doing some type of cocky shimmy after the ball left his foot, it would be a different story.
He's a weapon!
Just think, if we didn't have him, who else would punt it 8 times a game! One of these years.............

Funny thing is, thats why GS said he drafted him.

Trading up for Gabbert is my pick. Washington, who badly needed a QB trading back with us was a huge red flag.

R Jay hurts because of where the team was at. Another gun receiver would have given us a shot.

You can easily make 2008 and the trade up for Harvey and Groves the worst class for this team. However, you could also argue I believe with the 2005 draftclass. Not a single player on that team is still here or lasted more than three or four years here in Jacksonville I think. With little to no production. Can't remember if it was that year or not. I just know it was ugly.

I picked the Harvey move...
But the more I think about it.... drafting a punter in the 3rd round has got to be the most boneheaded thing ever... We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Quote:I picked the Harvey move... Thats exactly how I was thinking. Dang Harvey was bad but a punter in the 3rd round? A punter? I'm not even looking at hindsight and the other picks that were taken. I'm just looking at a punter in the 3rd round. What better way for your GM to say; "hey, im screwing you guys and management doesnt care", than with a punter in the third round?

"Letting" the colts have Luck wouldnt be nearly as noticed if we had taken Wilson/Foles over a friggin punter.
If tanking a game for a player is real, wouldn't the colts just of tried to tank harder? It would of seriously been an insult to the game of both teams were just trying to lose.
Quote:"Letting" the colts have Luck wouldnt be nearly as noticed if we had taken Wilson/Foles over a friggin punter. All of this. Also, what if the clots traded down and got the same deal the rams got and took Wilson. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
I had to pick Harvey. There was a decent foundation in place, but the team started trying to force things and reached for Harvey and then, to help the pass rush more, Groves. i remember I was buying a car on draft day and was sitting in the waiting room for loan papers to be drawn up watching the draft. I figured we would be home hours before the Jags picked. Then TRADE TRADE TRADE flashed and the Jags were on the clock. I remember being floored.

Quote:"Letting" the colts have Luck wouldnt be nearly as noticed if we had taken Wilson/Foles over a friggin punter. The players don't tank. Tanking occurs when the coaching staff, possibly under direction of the GM, plays 2nd and 3rd string players "to evaluate them for next year." The clots were playing backups while the Jags were still playing starters. "Why should I give information to you when all you want to do is find something wrong with it?"
I thought the Jags had a real nice draft last year. I seem to recall few of your late round selections were contributors. Another draft or so like that and things will turn around for you.
