D'Anthony Smith projects best in a one-gap 4-3 penetrating front, where his quickness and burst can be fully utilized to disrupt offensive backfields.
He could contribute immediately as a rotational interior pass rusher with the potential to develop into a starting 3-technique impact player.
Smith's value would significantly diminish in a two-gap 3-4 scheme that requires him to consistently anchor and hold the line of scrimmage.
His athleticism and burst make him an ideal fit for schemes prioritizing upfield disruption from the defensive tackle position.
Selected #74 overall in Round 3 of the 2010 NFL Draft by Jacksonville Jaguars out of Louisiana Tech.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
