How Good does Jaylon Have to Be To Make Up for it?

[dagreat1_87]

with the lack of success we've had with our last few 2nd round picks, all jaylon has to do is actually play for more than 2 seasons without getting suspended or hurt for me to say it was a good pick

We get Jaylon for 4 seasons on his rookie contract. 25% of that is now spent. Jerry and the front office knew going into the selection that Smith wouldn't likely deliver anything in the first year of the contract.

So my question is...if we are only getting Smith for 3 years...that we can be sure of...and we made a significant sacrifice for the 2016 season in getting no production from that high #2 pick...how good must Smith be to make up for it...from a value standpoint?

Jaylon Smith doesn't have to be good. He WILL BE good. He is worthy, talent wise, of a top 5 pick. And he will be that good. Just got to get that foot 100%.

i dont think noah spence was on the board probably due to off-the-field issues.

Maybe true, but a comparable pick to grade smith off of.
