The Jags moves don't seem that concerned about Fortner at Center. Most of the FA centers as upgrades are probably already signed. Anyone left would probably be a reclamation project.

It's fortner and also bartch/shatley. If one of the three was worth a darn, he could cover for the others. But any combination of them gives us 2 liabilities in a row along the 5 man line.
I agree that FA is not the best place to look, especially not now when it's picked over. But we have to, have to add a guy in round 1 or 2 for one of these positions.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.

I just keep suggesting drafting a guard with some center versatility as a safeguard. Apparently that's a step too far for some fans. *shrug* We have to add a guard to compete with Bartch anyway and Scherff may be gone after 2023 if Father Time and injury attrition start to show they are catching up to him. Hard for me to see why adding one IOL player in either the 2nd or 3rd round would be a bad thing with all of these factors considered. But, whatever. Everyone sees it differently.

Lawrence played terrible his first year, I did not recomend trading him away, or replacing him after the season. Don't make up lies now. The argument is no different than mine, A guy played bad football all year and has given fans concern. The only difference is the position and the draft selection. Just stop.

It's really not, you're right he wasn't good this year and theres no reason to not upgrade that position if possible, or like you said draft a Guard who can play both. It's nothing like the rookie season for Trevor because 1. Fortner was taken multiple rounds before he was expected to go to begin with. 2. He was drafted in the 3rd? not the 1st overall pick 3. He wasn't nearly as gifted as Trevor is physically/talent wise. 4. O line is super important and requires 5 players + depth anyways. Fortner is not a guy who we should just "go with" if there is a better option available, and we should absolutely be looking to get 2 or 3 linemen in this draft.

One year contract to solidify the interior and show Fortner the ropes.

Infact I think the main focus in general will be both interior lines. Fortner was a projected 5-6th round pick coming into that draft and I think we jumped the gun a bit out of need. That's not to say he can't get better but I doubt he ever becomes a guy we deem unreplaceable.

Rounds 1-5 we should see Two C/G Two 3-point stance DL 1 CB with slot ability 5 picks, 5 players. The needs are big enough and obvious enough that any deviation will come with weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Get me a guy who can create pressure up the middle in the first round, A good DB in the second and then go take some shots on the O line.

Unless someone drops outta nowhere and is clearly more talented than the rest. I think we go Best Available Guard/DB/IDL in round 1. Dosen't matter what order, but there are positions we need to fill. Pure BAP isn't always the right way to go. We're not in rebuild mode. If the "BPA" is a running back at 24, are we taking him with ETN on the roster? Or if one of the top two qbs dropped?

Fortner showed some promise as a rookie. Shat is a solid back up. But yes we should probably add a C/G dual position iol in the first 2 rounds for sure. Also double dip OL by taking a tackle round 4 or 5. Add a TE, NB, and S with the other 3 of first 5 picks and I'm feeling pretty good about the roster going into camp. There's enough youth and contract flexibility in our WR corp I don't think we need to draft one. Worst case bring back MJJ or give Tim Jones more snaps (03-27-2023, 07:26 PM)mikesez Wrote:(03-27-2023, 07:18 PM)ChrisJagBoy Wrote: I think the O line will be a big focus in the drafts middle rounds.

I agree those are all needs, but with this supposedly being a great TE and middle round RB class, wouldn't taking one of those positions be reasonable? |
