I see a lot of mock drafts had Nolan Smith dropping to the second round / 3rd round due to his injury.
After his 40 time, and his ability to be an outstanding run defender along with the speed to rush the passer, he may have just jumped into the middle of the 1st round, but if he falls to 28...I think he should be the pick with our eye on having to replace Hendrickson in a couple years, or need a replacement for an injury, and would make one hell of a rotational player.
I know OT and CB are bigger needs, but I think a guy that falls to 28 with top 10 talent needs to be taken. Take best available, worry about the roster build later.
