I've seen a lot of D. Smith. He's a big kid. Prob about 6'4" 330lb. I think they asked him to get a little too big. He played LT at that weight. I think a little better conditioning will help him. I think he might make it inside in the NFL. He hasn't played there. So, it's a little bit of a projection. Smart kid. Graduated earlier this month. Has a kid. Younger kids in the program looked up to him. It's not football 24/7 when you're in college, going to class and have a kid. The ability to concentrate on football and be financially set can really help a kid like him focus. I wouldn't bet against him. Would consider him with our late 4th or that 6th from TB if we double dip on OL.
PSU's offensive line stunk this year. But, it wasn't his fault. He played with two red-shirt frosh who weren't ready, two converted dt's on the ol for the first time. The center was a first year starter too. He was the only one who had started a game prior to this year. He won't be a plug in and play guy like Urschel. But, Seattle has a kid Gary Gilliam who was a converted TE. Who didn't start at PSU ahead of Smith and a Gress kid, yet made their team this year as a UDFA.
