IMHO, there are only 6 blue chip prospects in this draft. Of interest to us they really would be Jalen Ramsey, Joey Bosa and Myles Jack. Ramsey was never making it to us at #8. Bosa was never making it to us either, and because he is the genetic lineage to both John Bosa and Eric Kumerow I seriously doubt Tannenbaum wanted to draft him. If he wasn't a success the vitrol would be a tidal wave. So, that leaves the injured Myles Jack. The only way Jack makes it to us is if the scouts whispers of his knee being a "time bomb" were correct. Personally, I think those are smokescreens and he goes before #8 as well.
But, if we want to take a chance on injured greatness, why not take Jaylon Smith in round 3? Our success rates in round 3 aren't great anyway, we would be paying him considerably less, and if he doesn't get healthy until year 3 we still have a great pick. Literally the only downside is if he never recovers (less likely) or he recovers in year 4 when his contract comes up and says "F U Dolphins I want the money!" (also seems unlikely from the Notre Dame kid). I think he will be a long term steal who can play Mike or Will, stay on the field for all 3 downs, camouflage a defensive coordinator's plans because he can drop into coverage, blitz, pursue, shed, fill and all of the things you really want from a LB. He reminds me of a combo of a young Brian Urlacher and Bobby Wagner. I'll buy a lottery ticket for that skill set. While we need a CB and OG in rounds 1 and 2 respectively (IMHO), I'll gladly pay a 3rd rounder for that lottery ticket.
