What's your somewhat realistic hopes for our 2022 starting lineup?

#27

The best and somewhat realistic roster following the draft and free agency is listed below. I opted to make 2 trades on draft day (via Fanspeak) which the Jaguars can realistically do. They gave up 1(1) to the WFT for 1(9), 2(9), 3(9) and 4(9). I'd even take that deal without pick 4(9), if necessary. I overpaid my top 3 free agents (Armstead, Reddick and Tomlinson) for $23, $16, and $11 million/yr. respectively. Rather than pay one of the FA wide-receivers too much, I drafted several due to the depth at this position in the draft. Adams is the only true #1 and he's not coming here. Here goes:

Q.B. Lawrence, Beathard
R.B. Etienne, Robinson and Zack Charbonnet (Rd. 4)
W.R. Jameson Williams 1(9), Chark (one year deal), Jailen Nailor (pick 4(1), Viska, Treadwell, M. Jones, J. Tolbert (pick 5/1) : One of these we either cut or trade in pre-season.
T.E. Arnold, Tre McBride (pick 3/5), Manhertz, Hollister
O.T. Armstead and Little, Richardson and Nick Ford (pick 6/1) in reserve
O.G.Tomlinson, Bartch,
C. Tyler Linderbaum (pick 2/1)
swing linemen: J. Taylor, Jarrett Patterson (pick 4/9), Shatley

D.E./Edge: Josh Allen, Hasaan Reddick, Chaisson, Derrick Hall (pick 3/9)
D.T. : Hamilton, Brown, Tufele
Swing linemen: Smoot, Gotsis
MLB: Nakobe Dean (pick 2/9), Wilson, Quarterman
OLB: Jack, Jordan Smith,
S.: Jenkins, Cisco, Ford, Thomas
C.B. Griffin, Campbell, Bryant (pick 3/10), Herndon

Return specialist (and reserve receiver): Agnew

Punter: Cooke
Kicker: anyone who can reach the end-zone on kick-offs

Obviously, not all of these are totally realistic (Linderbaum in 2nd, Armstead coming here), but it is not impossible. Having the top pick gives the NEW general manager the opportunity to execute trades, especially for rounds 1, 2 and 3. The large salary cap room of over $70 million allows Khan to slightly overpay free agents who might not totally love the idea of coming to the laughing stock franchise of the NFL. In free agency, money usually talks and the combination of Lawrence, a competent coaching staff and new general manager Jacksonville may not seem too bad to potential free agents. Having great golf, fishing and low taxes doesn't hurt either.
