Now that Reiff has been cut, I'd like to see them resign Rashod Hill. That shouldn't add much to the total.

I do too. He's an extremely valuable player to have as depth. Worst-case scenario is he starts at LT. I don't think that kills us. If you move O'Neill to LT, an Udoh / Hill comp at RT would be a good one.
You've got a highly compensated QB. You've got a highly compensated RB. I think to maximize the ROI, we should put some dollars into the OL. Last year we were 4th in yards and 11th in points. Get a better OL and we'll do even better.

Man, they just lost their starting LT who was arguably the best player on that mediocre OL.
Improvement might be asking too much from that group...

Improvement at LT? No. But I do expect improvement from the overall group. We can't expect Cleveland, Darrisaw, whoever it is, to come in and be better than Reiff. Sure, it's possible, but unlikely.
However, releasing Reiff gives us the money to improve at guard. I expect to see improvement at both guard positions, as well as at center and RT.

This is good. They spent a 1st and two 2nds to get those starters and might spend another 1st this year. There is a lot of value in that expenditure not included.
Let's say they manage to trade for Orlando Brown.
That list next year will be much different if Brown and O'Neill have extensions eh?
I hope they do NOT break the bank and try to keep the signings to lower if possible.
I wonder if the Jaguars are interested in Barr?
If the Vikings can rework the contract I would not mind seeing a Barr for Andrew Norwell trade.

I think I would rather see Hill at LT and ONeill at RT, Hill has looked pedestrian at best on the right side, but seems to be much better on the left.

I agree. I'm not a huge fan of adding Brown. You'd be paying big contracts to bookend tackles the same season Cousins' contract peaks. I'm much more for adding a 2nd tier guard in free agency and then adding another OL (G/T) in the draft. That syncs a little bit better with the reality of this line's financial future (Bradbury and Cleveland come due the same year as well).

I think the Jaguars may end up cutting Norwell. If I am Rick, I would give up a 6th for him as long as he would be willing to extend/restructure.
If they release him it could be difficult to secure his services.
Then, if they can add Zeitler for 4 to 5M, they might just have something.
