It's already been shown several times that the coach as GM model is suboptimal. That they went with Baalke means (to me) no one else wanted the job because Meyer is the one in charge, and putting a guy with no nfl experience in charge of your nfl team is a recipe for disaster. Trevor may be so good he makes Meyer look fine, but I'd say there's at least as much chance Trevor is concussed out of the nfl in a few years of running a college offensive scheme.

This offseason offered a chance for the Jaguars to become another Green Bay, a small town legacy market that the NFL would have a lot of trouble getting rid of, but instead they're Jagging it up. I could really see this offseason being the match that lights a long fuse ending with the Jaguars moving at some point over the next decade.

That's reading into it more than a little bit.

I can't think of anything else to make of it. A coach centric team where the coach was hired first, then they have to just stick with the guy already on staff at GM. Tells me the good candidates probably weren't interested in joining a team where they'd be answering to a coach instead of calling the shots.

Like I said, maybe Trevor is so good he makes all the moves look good, but that's an awful lot to expect of a player.
