5. Jacksonville Jaguars: Myles Jack, LB, UCLA

Myles Jack is the most versatile player in this year’s draft and it isn’t even close. Jack played both linebacker and running back at UCLA and was effective at both positions. However, he is most likely to slot in as a linebacker in the NFL.

As good as Jack is, he has a downside; he missed most of his final season at UCLA with a torn meniscus, which will scare some teams away, but the Jaguars need an anchor on defense and Jack could be just what they are looking for.

Jack has the speed and explosiveness to be an elite player at the next level and, with the mind of a running back, he can be a menace defending the run. Jack is a risk, but he has the potential to be a special player at the next level. The Jags need to take a chance on him.
