He helped Alabama capture a College Football Playoff National Championship as a freshman, but Smith has yet to have a breakout year. The 6-foot-4, 302-pounder played all 13 games last year, including seven starts.
He totaled 20 tackles, two tackles for loss, and a sack. Smith has potential, but he needs to unlock it in the fall.
A good season from him could provide a suitable NFL Draft grade.
