1. Verse or Turner

3. Sainristil

Of course find a way to keep Allen and Ridley with keeping our 2nd round pick

This would work, for sure. Not sure if either pass rusher will be available, but this would enable the new defensive coordinator to move Walker to the defensive line, where he'd be able to thrive. Of course, we don't even know what type of scheme the new coordinator will use. Sweat is a high risk/high reward player. If he keeps his weight in check, imagine a defense with Walker, Sweat, Hamilton (if healthy) Allen and Turner/Verse. Regardless of the scheme, they'd be hard to contend with.

Sainristil would be a very good nickel and has amazing versatility. Definitely wouldn't hate that pick. 

Questions I'd have in this scenario are:

1. What are you doing with Cam Robinson? I'd let him walk to save a ton of money and go with Harrison and Little. While not 100% sold on Little at tackle, he has had times when he looked very good. If given the chance to focus solely on tackle (he and Harrison are capable of playing on both left and right side), I believe he will rise to the occasion. 

2. How can they keep Ridley and 2nd round pick? Just not sure in what world this will happen since Ridley is likely going to select the team offering the most money and I don't see that being the Jaguars. If they let him go, I'd have to fill that void with the best receiver who falls to round 2 ( Leggett, Walker, Franklin, Worthy, Corley, etc.) and "settle" for McKinley Jackson in round 3 with their compensatory pick. He's much less risky than Sweat with less upside, but he'd be a steal if they could get him in round 3 (I'd even trade up in the 3rd to secure him).
