Former Jacksonville Jaguars general manager Gene Smith has been the point of ridicule for fans and the most widely used representation of his failures are his first round picks.
With hindsight, it’s not fair to lump in his first two picks with his last two. While both Monroe and Alualu never really developed into the kind of players that warrant a top 10 draft selection, both became solid contributors and have played in the league for a while. Gabbert and Blackmon have been phenomenal busts, with Gabbert arguably in contention as the worst quarterback in the history of the NFL.
