I was thinking about Ohio State's Braxton Miller around the fifth, but felt that Epperly was actually the better QB and would be cheaper in the draft.
And I'm pretty sure that they'll sign Smith. They'd be really, really stupid if they didn't. He's a really solid QB that fits the system extremely well. They isn't a QB in the next draft that comes close to what he provides athletically, in intelligence and decision making on the field. The offense responds to him and he had a good year despite a really bad situation in terms of what he had to work with in a brand new system.
So, no, I am not about spending a high draft choice on a QB that won't be even close to what Smith gives you. You sign the guy and put some weapons around him. (Though they really didn't do that in 2014 when the chance was there.)
