He is very important for the success of the team this upcoming season... probably the most important, but had the Jags prepared to "replace" him at the start of the offseason... yeah that's not an issue. There still could be a plan in place in the draft anyways. Irreplaceable players are all pros. Someone who is in the top 3 of their position in the league. That'd be Ramsey. There is no way he could be replaced.

Long term Ramsey is the most irreplaceable player.  But if you throw Rudolph or Jackson out there against Philly, New England, Pittsburgh, KC, Houston and Tacks twice we don't make the playoffs this year.

That's not the point of what I said. Is Blake the most important player for the Jags in term of success? Absolutely he is. Every single team in the NFL, the most important player is the QB. No matter what. Is Blake replaceable? Absolutely he is. If there was a plan at the start of the offseason to replace him, there was options. Then lets look at Jalen. There wasn't a single option on the playing field of Ramsey. Only other option in the league is Rhodes. As for QB, there are also still options in the draft to do so. Point is, important doesn't equal irreplaceable. Those are two way different things to me. Not a knock on Blake, just IMO there are a number of QBs who could be asked to do the same thing Blake is and have success. I can't name more than 3 CBs who are on Ramsey's level.
