02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Christopher Smith projects best in a Cover-3 match or Quarters defensive scheme, where his instincts and coverage ability can be fully leveraged from a safety position.

Free SafetyStrong SafetyNickel defender
Best role

Year 1 contributor as a special teams ace and sub-package safety, with the ceiling to become a reliable starting free safety.

Wrong fit

He would be a poor fit in a true single-high man-heavy scheme due to his average long speed and limited man coverage reps.

Smith's versatility and football IQ make him a valuable piece for a defense that prioritizes multiple safety looks and complex coverages.
