D'Ante Smith also excites me because he provides instant depth and I think he will develop into a quality starter for us at tackle and he has the potential to become an All-Pro.
Fun fact: In a Feb draft preview PFN had Smith ranked as their 64th best prospect, a 2nd rounder, & the 3rd best Vuard behind Slater & Vera Tucker. https://www.profootballnetwork.com/dante-smith-nfl-draft-player-profile-east-carolina-offensive-tackle/
I think the Bengals want smith to grow into an long term OT role and see Carman & Hill as interior linemen.
