Assuming also we sign at least one top tier OL in free agency (Trent Willliams, Brandon Scherff), how many OL, if any, do you draft with our other picks in this draft?

2-3. Not sold on Taylor, Robinson, Bartch or even Norwell and Linder. 

If there’s a top tier OLine at our 2nd 1st rounder or either of our 2nd rounders, I’m taking them. 

Signing a TE in FA. Drafting some more WRs. I’m going all offense to help ensure that Lawerence has weapons and stays upright.

I might take 2-3 but I would want to keep Linder and Norwell.

If it were up to me, I would have a starting OL of:

LT-T. Williams, LG Norwell, C Linder, RG Scherff, RT Rookie or Taylor

Rookie LT, Rookie IOL, C Shatley

To me this strategy would give us a clear upgrade in talent at least at two positions-Maybe 3 if the rookie RT beats out Taylor, improved depth along the OL, and someone to groom in once Williams, Norwell Linder and Scherff gets too old/expemsive.

If we sign Trent Williams, I draft another OT early on to compete for the RT spot and I draft a OG/OT in the later rounds as well to compete for the RG position. 

If we sign Scherff, I draft two OT's. A starting LT with the second pick in round 1 and another somewhere around the 4th or 5th round to compete for the RT position.

That seems reasonable.
