If Lock is the top QB on their board should they take him at 7 if he's there?

Yes... They should. He's not my top QB but if they feel he's a true franchise guy, please select him.

To me, Foles is a band aid. The Jags will be looking for another QB in 3 years. Not because Foles plays poorly (I hope) but it's because they didn't truly address the QB position until it was too late.

I think they may actually see Foles as a very expensive band-aid that buys them time to draft the next one. 
My hope is that they have every intention of drafting Foles' replacement in the 2020 or draft, but I'd be good with them doing it in a few weeks if they rate Haskins or another highly enough. 

It's just the timing of Foles contract dead money and cap savings would make releasing him a real possibility prior to the 2021 or 2022 seasons. Not so much prior to that. So drafting his replacement now would be jumping the gun a bit in terms of timing finance with QB development.
