3. Allowing Jags to stay on the rosrer past expiration date - Hunter, Smith to name a couple. Panic traded Hunter, but the damage was already done. Howard is backup-caliber player.

4. Mishandling the offensive skill position players - whether it was downgrading the WR corps, failing to bring in veterans and relying on unknowns, or simply missing on picks and talent evaluation, the skill positions are a disaster at the moment.

5. Tebow - do I even need to say anything? The move that probably showed how clueless he was as much as any when it comes to building a solid offense.
This is a very good summary - left out the picks of Ducasse and Wilson as 1st and 2nd round picks that have been busts thus far. Some will say Wilson isn't a bust, but you expect more than a slot CB taken in the 1st round.
