Myles Jack still could be part of Falcons' draft plans

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Although concerns about Myles Jack's right knee caused him to fall out of the first round, the UCLA linebacker remains an option for the Atlanta Falcons as the draft continues with Rounds 2 and 3 Friday night.

Coach Dan Quinn was asked if Jack is off the Falcons' draft board.

"No, he is not," Quinn told ESPN.com. "But is it a concern? Yeah."

Jack visited Atlanta during the pre-draft process and played for Falcons linebacker coach Jeff Ulbrich when Ulbrich was UCLA's defensive coordinator. Jack would be the ideal playmaking inside linebacker with his speed, range and physicality.
