'Winning at the LOS'
Smith has a calm, craftsman like approach about his game that is fun to watch and extremely difficult to defend.
What sticks out about Smith is this appears everywhere from the line of scrimmage to deep down the field.
Always looks like he is in control.

'Winning at the LOS'
What I continually notice about Smith is how well he sells outside leverage.
He isn’t overly quick, or abrupt, but has a fine tuned internal clock that makes him such a tough assignment for any corner, even a top flight one like Derek Stingley Jr.

'Creating separation'
As humans, we are drawn to bigger more dramatic movement patterns from a recognition standpoint.
Smith has a toolbox of separation techniques and the calm in his game is at the root of this.

'In-air adjustments'
As good as Smith is at the line of scrimmage and during the stem of his routes, he is just as adept when the ball is in the air.
Making the proper in-air adjustments is a big part of Smith’s overall game.
