question, is devin smith still getting first round consideration after disappointing some folks with his 40 time?
no shot. Honestly haven't really considered him a first rounder this whole time. haha
i did for a hot minute but ive soured on him. still like him as a replacement for torrey though, but at the expense of getting a more complete player? nah.
Dissapointing? He ran a 4.44. Torrey ran a 4.41 and he's plenty fast. Plus Smith still has his pro day. I suggest you stick to watching game tape when evaluating deep speed - it's a lot more involved than a straight-line 40 time. Smith is still a borderline late first rounder - he's got better hands and route running ability than Torrey did coming out. If not us, a team like the Patriots who really have lacked a true vertical threat since Moss left could take him at the back...
