Since taking over as the general manager of the Jacksonville Jaguars on January 8, 2013, Dave Caldwell has mined some draft gems that have made a significant impact on the roster in both the immediate and long-term blueprint of the team.
In 2014, that player was defensive team captain and emotional heartbeat Telvin Smith in the fifth round, who has already earned a second contract from the team. Draft day two has been much more fruitful for Caldwell than day three (or day one, for that matter), but “Diamond Dave” and his most recent disinterment of Wisconsin Badgers linebacker Leon Jacobs in the seventh round is an encouraging one.
