I wonder what Smith’s 40 time is? He’s very long yet strong looking, kinda like Cromartie and Asomugha. Similar jam at the line as Asomugha. Obviously, I’m not saying he IS either of those two, but he has a similar build and style of play. Really curious about the speed.
Jimmy Smith runs about a 4.49 dash, sometimes that does not transelate to game speed, he looks like an average corner speed to me with better game speed than most
