Larry Smith
Andy Lyons/Allsport
He is a junior that surprisingly entered this draft and NFL teams are still trying to catch up with him in terms of his overall ability. He is a former offensive lineman that has limited experience, but certainly a lot of potential. He is a rangy guy for an inside player and he has excellent quickness and inside penetrating skills. He has good overall AA and speed and has the frame to add some weight. At times, he can dominate and if he continues to improve his overall consistency, he could be a "steal" in this draft. He is quietly moving up many draft boards. He will be a player that will be closely scrutinized at the coaches' workouts in the spring and the results of those workouts will determine how high he is drafted.
