Smith has exceeded my expectations.
I expected him to play a lot of depth the first half of the year and perhaps push Slauson for starting RG duties by the end of the year.
To have him come in and lock down the starting RT spot as a rooke and do it well? I was not expecting that.
He is a rookie and he is not perfect but on a sliding scale? He is at least an 8 out of 10 and perhaps a 9. His play has been very good.
