Expert Analysis
Will Helms | Prep Redzone Scout
Smith can play off the ball or on the line, and he was part of a ferocious front seven for Middle Creek last season. He’s an impressive run defender with some pass-rushing flashes, and honestly, his raw numbers were hurt simply by other linemen finishing plays after his initial pass rush disrupted pockets. Expect a strong offseason in the weight room and for Smith to take the next step in his development.

Read EvaluationWill Helms | Prep Redzone Scout
When I scouted Middle Creek earlier this season, I came away impressed with the movement skills of the bigger Smith. He may ultimately end up as a full-time edge rusher, but right now, he’s a guy who can play with his hand in the dirt or off the ball. He plays with consistent strength to stand up linemen and play the run. We may ultimately change his position at a later date, but I like him with the linebackers as of this writing, thanks to his lateral movement and high I.Q.
