Did the Jags draft anyone that will start next year?

#23

Taven Bryan will get rotational reps this year, provide valuable backup in case of injury, learn from the quality vets on the squad, and take a starting job in season 2 when one of the high priced vets are released for cap purposes.

DJ Chark will get rotational reps at the minimum, and has a shot to start with his speed and length as the year and his development progresses. I am sure they would love this guy to command the position, so a more expensive Moncrief with similar traits can become expendable after the season.

Ronnie Harrison is best suited for the strong safety spot and will learn from Barry Church for a year, and play a big role on special teams. In season 2, he'll take over the starting role, and the Jags can save $6.2m in cap from an aging Church.

Of these 1st four round draft guys, I think Will Richardson has the greatest chance to start at RT. Parnell has been a mediocre right tackle. If Richardson beats him out, the Jags could save $4-5m in cap this year (that can be rolled over for next year when needed). I think it's more likely that Richardson is cross-trained to compete with Wells as the game day swing tackle. But, there is a chance that he could bump Parnell.
