Smith will thrive in a gap/duo power run game where his size and strength are assets and he is allowed to fire out and disrupt defenders.
Immediate starter at right guard in a power scheme; ceiling is a multi-year Pro Bowl level starter.
His lack of quickness and agility makes him a poor fit for a zone-heavy scheme.
Smith's success in the NFL will be highly dependent on landing in a system that values his strength and power over his limited athletic ability.
Selected #37 overall in Round 2 of the 2018 NFL Draft by Indianapolis Colts out of Auburn.
