Same O-line. So the same OL from last year is going to be worse with LT fully recovered from ACL injury, RT no longer a rookie, and RG not a merry go round of Cann and Richardson every other series?
QB will be running for his life, we need to keep 3 QB's on the 53 man. QB plays better on the move. Teams beat him last year when they forced him to stay in pocket more. Also, I think the OL will be better and I also think that some of the issues last year weren't the OL but the rookie QB making some rookie QB vision mistakes.
No RB's Ya'll acting like Fournette was the heart and soul of the team man... most of ya'll trashed the dude every chance you got when he "went down on first contact" and "had no vision". Now we're all of a sudden gonna be missing him so much, smh lmao.
D-line depleted, very young and inexperienced Allen is probably gonna be two times the player Yan was. We added Timmy Jernigan who has plenty of experience. Smoot is going into year 4. Jones has also been on the team awhile. Now, we can argue that we have less talent, but let's not talk about how the DL is so young and inexperienced because we moved Campbell and Yan.
DB's are suspect besides Hayden Fair. Although, when targeted Herndon actually wasn't that bad last year. Henderson is a rookie but I think he'll be better than most of the gata haters wanna believe. But yeah, this is a position lacking in depth and experience for sure.
LB's are OK nothing to be excited about Fair. But most 43 teams don't have a bunch of Wagners and Wrights on their roster.

Only good thing we have are WR's and Minshew won't have the time to throw the ball.

Yeah that sums it up.

The Jags go into the final 2 weeks of the season with a 2-12 record. They have a lock on the #1 pick, ahead of the New England Patriots who have a 3-11 record. We go into Chicago and are trailing 17-3, but Minshew leads a massive comeback and we win the game 27-17. This means we now are tied with the Patriots  for the worst record in the NFL. Both of us lose in the final week of the season, giving us matching 3-13 records, but because of some weird tie breaker scenario, the Pats end up with the #1 overall pick. We offer them the moon in order to trade spots, but Bill Belichik (being the genius that he is,) rebuffs all our trade offers and selects QB Trevor Lawrence. All of his defensive stars that opted out this season, return in 2021 and the Patriots have another juggernaut for the next decade. Meanwhile, LT phenom Penei Sewell opts to stay in school and the Jaguars are forced to reach for a QB that ends up busting. Despite this, Khan extends the contracts of Caldwell, Marrone, Wash and Gruden.

Geez man just jump already.

Also, in your scenario, picking 2nd, we end up with Fields (not a reach) who could very well end up just as good (or better) than Lawrence.

But don't let me rain on your crybaby parade of why life is so bad and how the worst possible thing always happens to us Jag fans lol
Khan extends contracts of Caldwell and Marrone after a 3 win season is just laughable.

Fields is a fraud. 

It's not a laughable scenario. Caldwell and Marrone should've been gone after last season. Just about every other owner in the NFL would've done so. Here, the owner has gotten so used to failure, he seems to encourage it. Nothing he does or doesn't do about the front office and coaching staff would surprise me. He seems to constantly go against conventional wisdom.
