His best season as a receiver is 448-8.
He's basically on the same caliber as Everett. Both had 41 receptions on ~63 targets.
Here's how their 2020 stats compare to a combo of Uzomah and Sample:
Smith - 65 targets, 41 rec, 448 yards, 8 TDs
Everett - 62 targets, 41 rec, 417 yards, 1 TD
Uzomah+Sample - 64 targets, 48 rec, 436 yards, 2 TDs

If Smith or Everett can be acquired for $5 mill APY or less, I think either would be an upgrade, but I wouldn't pay $6+ mill for either guy.

Smith is a better blocker and receiver than either of the current guys (who I don't hate, I'm just not enamored with). I think Uzomah is over $6 million per year and Sample is around a million per year. I'd easily take Smith at $6 or even $7 as that's still cheaper for more production than what we've got now.
