Everyone wants to have depth at those 3 positions. It would be great if they could hit on those positions.

However, it's very odd that the Jags haven't taken a WR with a top 100 pick since Trevor has been the QB. That really does need to change in this draft. This draft is so deep at WR that they should be taking one at 17 or 48. I would even double up in this draft at WR. For me, the entire draft should be OL, WR and CB.

Our biggest weakness last year was pretty much summed up by Trent Baalke.  "We need to get bigger and stronger."  We've added one player on the offensive line and one player on the defensive line.  I don't want to rest my hopes on the idea that players with that much mileage will be healthy all year.  I want to be SURE we got bigger and stronger.  So I would be perfectly happy if they spent high picks on offensive and defensive linemen.   I don't care so much about WR.  Our WRs will look really good if we can run the ball.  And they'll also be helped indirectly by us stopping the run and pressuring the opposing passer.  I put WR way down on my list of priorities.  I know we want to "build the team around Trevor."  But sometimes, that just means building a team, period.
