4) I love to see us have a true Ray Lewis type ILB but there's none out there

5) WR --- With our focus on the running game and the fact that we focused on WRs the past few years, this should be the least of our worries so if we're looking at WRs late in the season, that means we've had another terrible year.

6) RBs ---- Barkley-Chubb-Guice-Scarborogh ..... holy crap, the big-fast RBs are making a comeback

5.  Do you think the Jaguars will end up re-signing Lee and Robinson, or do you think losing these guys are no big deal?

(I think I like our safeties, but lining up an heir apparent to either wouldn't be a bad idea IMO.  Church will be getting long in the tooth by the third year of his contract and we'll know whether we want to keep paying Gipson or not by season's end. That's a big, fat "maybe" right now.)

Are there any positions on the OL you are focusing on in particular?  If so, is it because this past draft's OL class was so weak, more investment is needed?

Like the FS situation I described - it depends on what happens in 2017 - but here's how I see it: 

Parnell will turn 32 before next year's training camp. He's under contract for a few more years, but he may diminish before it's up.  We may or may not have a sure thing stud starter at both guard spots.  We don't know where Linder will be playing for sure. We don't know much about out current depth besides Shatley and Omameh being "solid." Maybe Bowanko too. Watford is still an unknown. 

• I think they may want to add competition at RT even if it's a guy that they don't plan to start right away should Parnell be perform well in 2017.  (perhaps a 3rd or 4th round tackle that falls a bit and could develop to challenge Parnell in time is a good move - depends on the tackle class)
  
• If no clear answer emerges on both sides of the center - I think they go after a stud guard to man one of those spots.
  
• If Linder stays at guard - they will likely want to find a stud center. 
  

So - I think RT is a good one to watch and G and C sort of depend on what shakes out from the wheat and chaff this season. One of those could be on deck in the 2018 draft as well.
