I imagine 1 of our top 4 picks will be an OG
If you consider attempting to sign a Fa addressing a concern. Schwartz could not beat out Fusco who was a 1st year starter at guard having played 3 games at center his rookie year. Schwartz would be a nice signing as a b/u but will not make Sanchez feel any better back there.

The jets are not going to be able to address all their concerns with 7 draft picks (who on a good year yield 3 starters and 2 backups) and 10 mill in FA money. There are going to be positions where there are players starting that should not be. However, insuring that the oline is addressed, helps you QB stay healthy and play with confidence, opens holes for your running game and gives the gives the WR a little more time to get open. Build a strong foundation 1st and worry about the wall and roof later.
