Smith is still a developmental interior defender, but he comes from a high-volume Alabama career and has the size to compete inside. His task is simple: turn practice-squad learning into a trusted rotational role and show he can hold up against NFL power.
Strengths: Prototypical interior build, extensive college experience and a background in a demanding defensive program. He has enough size to anchor and develop as a run defender.
Weaknesses: He has almost no regular-season NFL production yet and needs to establish a clear specialty. Pass-rush impact and consistent pad level are the areas that can earn him more snaps.
