This is a great example of how many fans never got over the hatred of Smith for his first two seasons.
Smith developed into a very good RT and his best season was probably 2013 just AFTER he got his contract extension.
He never lived up to his draft hype, and we did not get a lot of good years out of him, but he was a key reason we went to the playoffs from '11-'15.
