I like Hunter Henry but he has struggled to stay healthy. Wouldnt break the bank for him and i like the Niners 3rd choice TE, Ross Dwelley. Maybe see if hes available for a mid to late pick.

But i still think we will add a WR. Smith-Schuster, Golladay, A-Rob, Godwin, how many actually hit the market im not sure and i wouldnt break the bank for any but we need to add some weapons on O.

Safety is one of the deepest positions in free agency. I'd be shocked if the Jaguars don't end up signing one of them. The wide receiver group is also very deep and talented. The 4 players you mention would all be great additions, however I'd prefer the Jaguars strengthen the position via the draft. The receiver class in this draft is extremely strong. Rondale Moore, Rashod Bateman and Kadarius Toney are the 3 players I'd like to see them target with their 2nd or 3rd pick. Bateman would add a big bodied safety valve for Lawrence who runs great routes while the other two would add speed. I'd rather see the Jaguars spend free agent money on other positions (defensive line and safety) which don't stand out in this draft class.

You make good points and i think the first thing i want to see from the new FO is how far they think they are from competing. Are they going to use the draft and build a team so in 4-5 years we are competing or are the going to go aggressive and roster churn to be competing in 2-3 years.

My main problem with building through draft picks was we did such a poor job progressing those players to the next level. Urban is meant to be the guy that can do that. It will be interesting to see if he wants to coach younger guys up or try and find someone who can do it straight away. 

With the WR, i like what we have but i think they will look at the Browns and Bucs who have too many weapons if anything and think we have to give Lawrence the same.
