Left tackles

#9

I disagree about Joeckel. Bortles' continued development is the key to this team's future and one major injury after being hit from his blindside would be catastrophic. I've seen too many mediocre pass rushers get past Joeckel. The focus does need to be on defense and specifically pass rush, however a left tackle should be drafted in either round 2 or 3 to provide competition at that position. If Griggs is available in the 2nd or John Theus/Kyle Murphy in the 3rd the Jaguars should address this. They can go defense in free agency with Irvin and the best available free safety (probably Gipson at a discount due to down year) and corner (Trumaine Johnson). Since they'll be drafting in the top 10, one of the pass rushers will be available in the first round (no way to know who will rise and fall by then, but someone will be there). Also,if Robinson drops to that spot, he might be too good to pass up since Miller is not getting younger and Marks' improvement is not guaranteed. Therefore, left tackle can be addressed even though the defense remains the focus.
