Whether that's at LT or RG personally. There's a good chance Harrison moves to LT in year three and they draft a new RT. I still think C needs to be prioritized. Morse is entering his 10th NFL season. 

EDGE is high up on the list for me still. Especially with DT getting a lot of attention this off season. I think you could make a case for CB and S being a priority again if things fall through with Campbell and Cisco in year four. 

1. OL
2. EDGE
3. CB
4. S

That's how I view it right now.

That's just mean. I like this kid. Looks good at the point of attack. I only see him moving forward and getting his leverage inside to the letter. That's how it's done for sure. I'll keep an eye out for #19 this year when Clemson is on TV.

I feel the same about Walker Little. He did well when having to replace Robinson at left tackle. They didn't do him any favors by moving him all over the line. They obviously like Robinson due to his physicality, but if they could re-sign Little at a good price they should move on from Cam and his big cap hit. Foster is the wild card here. If he shows good progress this season, he is a candidate to start at right tackle ( or maybe even guard if he looks better there) with Harrison moving to left tackle. 

Edge and corner will also need to be addressed, as you said. While Myles Cole has great size, my expectations for him aren't very high. The best case is that he turns out like another 7th round defensive end they took a chance on. Bobby McCray actually had a pretty productive pro career and actually got 10 sacks in one season with the team. Both players are 6'6" but Cole is 20 pounds heavier at 280 pounds. Trevis Gipson could be a wild-card here. While not a 10 sack type of player, he had a couple fairly productive seasons with the Bears and hopefully a change of scenery will help him. Jarion Jones appears to have great upside as a cornerback. If he proves capable of playing on the outside and not just against the slot receiver, the need for a corner will not be as great. Darby is likely a Jaguar for 2 years at the most due to his age and injuries. Prince could also contend for a starting spot after his rookie season.

Foster has a ton of upside as an All-SEC player. What stood out to me was his pass blocking grades in the play action game and his run blocking. Those are two key areas this offense needed to improve at and he checks off both boxes. 

I have little to no expectations on Myles Cole. I just think they'll stash him on the roster as one of Ryan Nielsen's projects. I like the Bobby McCray reference. I was thinking Rob Meier when we drafted him. Hopefully a long term staple that we grow and develop accordingly that steps in when and if needed. 

Cole's frame gives him an opportunity to pack on more weight and be that guy that moves around here and there by 2025. Gipson is a wildcard, that's why I still think a veteran EDGE should be on this team's radar still. They have plenty of cap space to spend on a one year rental. Dupree, Ngakoue and Ogbah would be make plenty sense here soon. Even more sense than them entertaining Jarvis Landry at WR. 

Jones at CB is my favorite pick. Looking forward to him from the giddy up. I really think people are going to be pleasantly surprised by his abilities and he'll probably end up being the steal of this 2024 Jaguars draft class as a whole. Just really fun to watch his highlights.
