Expert Analysis

Michael Huntley

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

I thought Smith looked better on Saturday than he did at the Battle at the Beach tournament the week prior. He drops to his spot in the pocket quickly, has a quick and smooth release and showed plus accuracy. Smith puts the ball where only his receiver has a chance to catch it and gets the ball out on time.
