If that plays out, I could see the pick being Jonah Williams unless they consider Hockenson to be the next Gronkowski. Williams can be plugged in immediately at either right tackle or possibly even guard if Richardson really steps it up after a disappointing rookie season. Either Fant or Smith would be solid 2nd round picks, although I also believe Fant's combine will get him drafted in the first round. With one of their two 3rd-rounders, they could take the best receiver on their board between Arcedo-Whiteside, Campbell, Sills or maybe one of the sleeper small school receivers who stands out at the Combine. The other 3rd rounder may turn out to be Grier or Finley.  Whether or not to take a quarterback here over someone like McCoy, who has a good shot at eventually starting at center or guard, will be a tough decision. If it were my choice, I'd probably go with McCoy since the chances of a 3rd round quarterback ever becoming a top-tier quarterback is very slim.

If the Jaguars pass on Foles, which we'll know very soon, the draft will become much more interesting, as well as nerve-racking!

I think you are spot on with everything here, including the dilemma of QB or a position of need.

Very possible we go RB in the 4th, although I'd prefer to wait until the 7th. The rb class is so deep, and the demand isn't that high tbh.

Thanks. It will be interesting to see if they draft a running back as early as round 4. I tend to agree with you about waiting on that position. Much will depend on whether they keep Hyde and Grant since Yeldon is all but gone. One guy I'd like if available in the 4th round or later is Benny Snell from Kentucky. He may not have the fastest 40 time, but he's a workhorse who seems very reliable and tough. Also seems to be a team leader and you can never have too many of those guys.
