Sean from Oakleaf, FL John, I get a little frustrated with the Armchair GMs that ping your inbox with the benefit of their deep draft expertise and criticism. Head Coach Urban Meyer s and General Manager Trent Baalke s legacy of success deserves the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise. The number of hours, days and weeks invested in this process by these men and their teams and level of dedication and commitment to excellence is beyond most fan s comprehension at this point. There s much truth in what you say. Still, given the plethora of experts and the seemingly 24-hour nature of the annual buildup to the NFL Draft, it s unsurprising that fans and observers enter the draft convinced they know every team need, every fit and every player s strengths and weaknesses better than those making the decisions.

You also would be tempted to lean toward Luck in your scenario because he played in the NFL at a high level for an extended period, so he is a known quantity. While Lawrence is the most enticing prospect since Luc ....
Charles from Port St. Lucie, FL Does this GM job become the most coveted GM opening in NFL history? It s difficult to say definitively if a particular job is the most coveted in NFL history; there are too many factors and the history of the league is too long. But what matters for the 2021-and-beyond Jaguars is that the vacant general manager position without question should be – and likely will be – the most-coveted opening this year. And one of the most coveted in recent memory. That was true before Sunday because of factors such as a patient owner committed to spending what it takes to win, the most salary-cap space of any team entering the 2021 offseason, 11 selections in the 2021 NFL Draft and a roster that includes some potential front-line players such as wide receiver DJ Chark Jr., defensive end Josh Allen, linebacker Myles Jack, running back James Robinson – and an offensive line that s better than many observers believe. It became much more coveted Sunday w ....
