Yea, best case scenario Smith probably wouldn't be able to play until maybe next October, and it's very likely he hardly plays his whole rookie year, you can't spend a top 10-15 pick, let alone top 5 on a guy missing time like that.With Jaylon Smiths knee injury, if we don't go QB, its likely down to Myles Jack coming off his own injury or one of the DBs.
It definitely looks like our options will be down to the QB's, Bosa, Jack, Ramsey or Treadwell, maybe someone like a Shaq Lawson will rise but I doubt it, which makes it even easier to just gamble on a QB in my mind.
I do think Jack has a chance to be special though, he's a guy with LB size and explosive hitting ability who also has the movement skill of a CB, I've never seen a LB in college as fluid in coverage as he is. He also has very soft hands and speed, evidenced by UCLA using him as a RB. If he blows up at the combine, runs a 4.5 or so and shows that the injury is behind him I'd be pretty comfortable if we ended up taking him.
Still prefer a QB, just saying that I really like Jack as a prospect.
