I think it's more likely that they slot Jackson in at LT and slide Shelton over to center (while releasing both Noteboom and Allen).
Spend some free agent money- or maybe find a trade partner using a day 3 pick (or picks) like they did when they acquired Corbett- to fill the LG spot while Bruss and Anchrum compete at RG.
Then draft the best available OL with one of their top two selections (could be C/G or T) to further add depth. Develop Arcuri as a swing backup at OT and round out the depth with Brewer.
Like your plan, LTs are so expensive, and he has played pretty well out there, but not sure Shelton can hold up a full season as a starter as well. Unless we get a good free agent center or draft a stud we may want to keep both Shelton and Allen.
We may get a little better deal an older vet G/C that still has a good year or two left him and hopefully Bruss or another youngster can step into the spot down the road.
Agree we need to develop Arcuri as a swing OT, I'm hoping he may be able to take Havenstein's place at RT in a year or two.
Anchrum can swing pretty well also, which gives us more depth whether he starts or is a backup.
