4. Bartch
5. Fortner
6. Shatley
7. Richardson
8. Taylor

So any OL we take will be 8th/9th on relevant depth chart. Not saying don’t do it, and maybe I am more comfortable with Richardson than most, but maybe resources are better applied elsewhere?

As many as possible.

2017 and 2018 is instructive on this point.

In 2017, we were healthy along the OL pretty much all season, and we made it to the AFC Championship.  The Eagles, coached by Pederson, was down to their 3rd LT, but wound up winning the Super Bowl.

The next year (2018), the Jaguars lost LT Cam Robinson for the year with a torn ACL against New England (otherwise a sweet game for us).  More and more injuries hit us along the OL and the offense went down the toilet for the rest of the season.]]we ned quality depth along the OL.  In fact, I would like for the team to find another G and T for the rest of this draft.
