As long as OL development remains a problem drafting offensive linemen is not going to fix the problem. Mike Tice is still alive, available, and under 65. The Jags best OL coaching came under him. Just sayin'.

Add another attempt at bolstering the OL. The Jags signed Ogbuehi before the draft last year. He (not Richardson) was the one penciled in at RT before they drafted Taylor. Admittedly Ogbuehi was a failure with the Bengals but he was a former 1st round pick. Marrone fails to see the lack of OL coaching and probably thought he could make chicken salad out of chicken [BLEEP].

Ogbuehi is another perfect example of what I’m talking about when I say lack of urgency.
That signing was a shot in the dark at reviving a failed draft pick. Not a move that shows any urgency to correct the issue. 

BTW - Richardson was drafted in 2018 and was touted to be the next RT as Parnell was fading and contract was nearly up. Ogbuehi came the next offseason as insurance - albeit very poor coverage with a sky high deductible.
