Smith is amazing - and LSU fans around here are still angry and perplexed that a kid like that who grew up 30 miles from Baton Rouge first committed to Georgia and then to Alabama - but you have to worry about his size. He is so thin, you have wonder if he can stand up to NFL hits. Yes, a guy like Justin Jefferson just had a great rookie year at 6'1" like Smith, but he weighs 205 pounds. Smith probably weighs 170 in his uniform.

Well, given how the Eagles have one of the worst GM’s in the game, you probably just gave him a reason to pass on Smith. That frame...they already drafted a Smith “type” (body frame) with Reagor last draft. And I don’t know if the Eagles can keep drafting receivers so high. They need help everywhere. So you can pass on him, even if he’s the best on the board.
