Said tape, combined with his measurables, is special enough to garner serious attention from FBS programs. Comfortable working out of gun/10 personnel sets. First rep on tape is a beauty, with Smith stepping into an unblocked defender with a full head of steam and hitting on a 40-yard post for a score. Smith is tough beyond his years and experience. Shows he can move his launch point to operate flood concepts, good to know when evaluating someone his size. A confident passer, Smith has no problem uncorking balls 40-50 yards downfield in an attempt to hit on vertical shots. Love the timing and accuracy Smith displays when targeting slants inside of 15 yards. The more decisive and comfortable Smith can be after catching the snap, the more his potential as a game-breaking passer will reveal itself each Friday night.

That's fine, the gameplan didn't call for it, and I know what the two are capable of via prior tape. Clark was targeted downfield on a couple of occasions, I'd credit Lincoln on some reps, I'd credit a couple overthrows as well. Despite the mistakes, Clark still managed to reel in three balls for over 60+ yards, all this while blocking on the perimeter and serving as a deterrent to run toward when aligned at DB. Clark's rank should show you how fondly I think of the two-way junior. Him being included in this piece should tell coaches that I believe he's a tier better than the majority of the prospects on the field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prior to this game, Clark would dismantle an LC defense for 215+ yards and three scores. This is the young man's ceiling, his floor being what I saw against Lincoln. A game-breaking type of prospect with straight-line speed that must be accounted for. This is another FCS prospect who is currently unoffered. Looked a lot bigger than 6'1 on the field, a lot bigger than 185, this being my opinion from the sideline.
