Who’s the worst owner in the NFL?

Tough call. They’re all pretty bad, honestly.
It’s scary to think about where the Cowboys would be right now if teams didn’t keep snatching up shítty QB’s in the first 3 rounds right before the Cowboys had their picks in the 2016 draft.

Jeannie Buss. Oh, NFL. For what the franchise he owns could be, it’s Jerry Jones.
Haslem by a mile.
We may hate on Jerry, but he's probably one of the best owners. Bottom tier GM though.

Correct. If you’ve won a Super Bowl, you shouldn’t be on the list.
Jerry simply because the old 17er won’t die and finally join me in hell.
Or both of the CBs they were gonna take didn't go right before Micah Parsons.
Jones
Got to be one of the top sporting franchises in the world and should be able to put together the best talent in the NFL but he's can't stand not being getting all the glory for jimmy johnson's and barry switzers teams.

Worst in what way? Yeah, Jerry screws up by not letting a general manager manage the running of the team, but that SOB bought the Cowboys for what 140 million and now it is worth 7.6 billion. I voted for Gayle because she inherit it from her sugar daddy and has done nothing with it. Obviously my opinion. Is it worth more now than it was when she got it? It's worth around 3 billion now. I am talking as a disgruntle Saints fan. It could also be I don't like her.
I don't want to research it but how many countries have a smaller GDP than what the cowboys are worth.

Exactly. You nailed it. Jerry is a great owner and a terrible GM. Although maybe if he was a better owner he'd have the balls to fire the GM?
Bottom line is Jerry has made the NFL and fellow owners more money than they would have without him. From suing the NFL for advertising rights to championing the Salary cap to pushing for the league to regain a presence in the #2 market in the US. Solid business man terrible football man!
Robert Kraft.
Something about him rubs me the wrong way..

Jerry Jones is a great owner. Under his ownership, the Cowboys are the most valuable brand in American professional sports and one of the most valuable sports brands in the world. Unfortunately, he also thinks he is a football man and insists on being the GM and making football decisions. If he would just run the business of the team and let a real GM run the football operations, the Cowboys would be unstoppable. But his ego and hubris gets in the way of that.
As a Raiders fan I’m just curious how they got left off the list
Wrong. Good Owners don't hire or retain bad GM's. Jerry Jones admitted he woulda fired a GM long ago had he done as schitty a job as he has done. No owner has ever given a bigger 17 you to a fan base in such a sick, narsistic & selfish way. Jerry reminds me of Mel Brooks in "History Of The World".
Jerry Jones reminds me of a guy I played golf with a couple of times. Great businessman who owned a couple of very successful golf complexes but couldn't break 90 on the course if his life depended on it.
Not Jones, The Cowboys are continually Sniffin the crown. More than you can say for some.
Probably Benson.

The choices should be
Woody Johnson - Jets
Mark Davis - Raiders
Dan Snyder - Redskins (I know he sold them)
Bidwill Family - Cardinals
Ford Family - Lions
Shadid Khan - Jaguars & Jimmy Haslam get a pass because they or their families have only been owners since 2012

Say what? They literally haven’t even made an NFC title game since 1995 & only have 4 playoff wins since then.
Agreed.
Also, I know the Broncos haven’t been great from an ownership perspective for a while but Walton’s only owned the team for a couple years.
Pat Bowlen’s estate had been in charge from 2014 until Walton bought it.
Yeah, my list would look something closer to this: Jets, Raiders, Cardinals.
I think those 3 teams combined for only 1 season with a playoff wins in the last 15 years (Cardinals / Carson Palmer in 2015).
And, before you’re like “it’s hard to win a playoff game” - since 1990, those three franchises have combined for like 8 divisional titles in +/- 99 individual seasons.

I despise jones leadership and what it does to the team attitude/player mentality. That’s another conversation. If you want to make it about value then he shouldn’t be on there. I’d venture to say no one has done less with more. When they won super bowls in bunches there was no salary cap, so they could just out pay like the Yankees.
Worst to first list
Carolina ownership is on here ranked turrible
@hatfieldms raiders are listed pretty low too
