Did I miss something?

Please elaborate.

You said they used Hockenson as an inline TE.  Then you said TC likes a big inline TE that can catch and block and not sure either guy fits.  I'm confused here, are you saying Hockenson cant block? The guy is probably the best blocking TE in the draft.  I don't get what you were trying to say

I am in total agreement about Hockenson being the total package at tight end. With ASJ apparently on the way out, tight end definitely needs to be a priority along with offensive line and wide receiver. I left out quarterback because the Jags are the leading contender to get Foles. If this happens, they can wait until the 3rd or 4th rounds to get their developmental quarterback. I really don't believe any quarterback not named Haskins would have been a good pick in round 1 and Haskins will be taken by the time the Jaguars get to the podium. Stidham, Jackson and Finley are 3 guys who could be viable options at that spot. With Foles as the starter for at least 2-3 more years, I'd even be o.k. with waiting until the 6th or 7th round to take Trace McSorley. As a PSU fan (admittedly biased), I believe he'd be a great back-up to Foles due to his intelligence, leadership and toughness. He may not be your prototypical NFL q.b., but I predict he will win games for some NFL team in the future. 

My ideal draft would go like this:

Rd. 1 - Trade back to mid 1st and take best right tackle (maybe Cody Ford).

Rd. 2- Tight end (Hockenson or Irv Smith)

Rd.3 - Chris Linstrom, wide receiver and quarterback

This draft is loaded at wide receiver even though there's not a clear number 1. One of those guys will fall to the 3rd round (maybe someone like Sills of West Virginia) and they can use their extra 3rd from the trade down in round 1 to take Stidham or the quarterback they prefer. 

This scenerio allows them to cut Parnell, ASJ and Cann and hopefully have enough money to keep Dareus and Gipson, especially if Campbell re-structures his contract. I'd feel very comfortable with the Jaguars going into next season with this roster.

I don't see Hockenson being there in the 2nd.  I dream first 2 rounds for me though if we got Foles would be Metcalf in the 1st and Hockenson in the 2nd, then go oline with our 2 3rd round picks
