I don't understand how you came to that conclusion. I'd much rather have a team full of solid players than one or two star players that you depend on to win for you. The only position that I would demand be a star is the quarterback. And one more question; how is Gene a middle of the road NFL GM? Have you analyzed every other teams moves and judged them against his to say that as truth. I just don't agree with your assessment of the teams future, I'm glad it's just an opinion, as every other thing stated in this article.

I have this thing where i type too fast. I listed Nicks twice in my top-3 drafted since Fitzgerald. The list should have stated that i liked, in no order: Calvin Johnson, Hakeem Nicks, Dez Bryant. That said, Nicks is really fun to watch. I was watching him and i have a new term: Luxury Pick. Nicks was a Luxury Pick and we didn't have that luxury. Maybe in a few years, we get a Luxury Pick to get some flash in J-ville. Not now though, we still need the blue-collar, lunch-pail, big, uglies. Thank you, JagSoldier, but i gotta apologize.

It has only been two years of Gene drafting. Patience is needed with these young guys. I like what I see out of all the Gene draftees who have played so far. In my opinion they have all played up to or exceded the draft position they were selected in. I do not see any busts and I feel that anyone taken after the 3rd can never be considered a bust because he is a chance pick. This team suffers from the mistakes of the past. Gene is building a strong nucleus and he needs to keep doing what he is doing. Now after saying that I would like to add that the Jags need to spend a pick on a flashy guy like Dez Bryant in one of the next couple of drafts because it helps the ignorant portion of the fan base buy tickets and a guy Dez would look good in Teal.
