solid but the eagles offense isn't giving him much. 1 td and now a hamstring thing. super smooth route runner with great hands, just not seeing enough big plays right now.

What Scouts Are Saying About DeVonta Smith
DeVonta Smith Scouting Report (6)
Smith is Philadelphia's most trustworthy receiver right now, and the Eagles should be treating him like a true WR1 rather than merely one of several weapons.
Calling DeVonta Smith a “No. 2 receiver” doesn't fit anymore. Put him on a team without another star WR and he'd have a legitimate shot at 1,400 yards.
Smith is no longer the other star; he is the proven center of this receiving room. His routes, body control and sideline craft make him a natural go-to target when the coverage gets tight. A healthy Smith gives the Eagles both elite production and a quiet standard for a suddenly very new group.
Strengths: Precise route running, speed, body control and outstanding contested/sideline catch ability. He can win from multiple alignments and has a long record of producing in high-leverage games.
Weaknesses: His lean frame means physical coverage and accumulated hits always deserve attention. Philadelphia needs the new depth to help prevent defenses from leaning every coverage plan toward him.
Great route-runner and hands, gets separation easily.
Strengths: Route-running.
Weaknesses: Lacks size.
He is really good at keeping the ball in his hands and he has great ball work
Strengths: He does well at keeping the ball in rough points
Weaknesses: Getting wider on offense
