I keep seeing people pointing out DeSean Jackson and Antonio Brown to try to defend him. Jackson was indeed 169lbs at the Combine, but he was 3-4 inches shorter, so it was spread over less. Also DeSean Jackson has only played 16 games in 2 of his 13 career years, so yeah, it was a real concern. (He also ran 4.35) As for Antonio Brown, at the Combine he was 16 pounds heavier and 3 inches shorter than Smith is. (He also benched 13 times)
6'1 and 170 just is too damn thin and I can't imagine he'll stay healthy or really beat press coverage. The NFL has plenty of guys like William Jackson who are 190-195lbs and run a 4.4 at CB. I think he's going to get manhandled a bit.
He could certainly prove me wrong, but I wouldn't put money (or a 1st round pick) on it.
Smith is fast, but not blazing fast. He's not very physical. He's not very tall. He wins with route running and has good hands. He reminds me of Chad kinda actually.
