Jaguars: Former linebacker named team’s best value draft pick

The Jacksonville Jaguars haven’t been good at drafting over the last ten years. Although they’ve had a few hits, they haven’t been enough to make up for their misses. Thus, it wasn’t surprising to see former general manager David Caldwell lose his job last year.

Caldwell didn’t have much success finding talent in the first rounds but had a solid track record in the later rounds. Also, he had a penchant for acquiring undrafted free agents, including last year’s rookie sensation James Robinson, who went on to make NFL history.
