WR | Ainias Smith
ROUND 5 - PICK 152 | AINIAS SMITH
"All-Purpose" could have been Smith's nickname in college since he's the only 2,000-yard receiver in SEC history to also collect at least 250 yards on rush attempts, punt returns, and kickoff returns.
Player Bio
Slot receiver with a somewhat unusual blend of elusiveness and power when the ball is in his hands. Smith is fine as a possession slot who can run more complicated routes underneath while also offering the courage to work successfully into the middle of the field. The route running is good but has room to get even better with more polish. However, his true calling might be as a gadget guy. He expands play-calling options with his ability as an occasional ball-carrier and open-field explorer, where the quick game and West Coast routes would allow him to get the ball in his hands and do his thing.
Fun Fact
Brother, Maurice, played DB at Alabama before transferring to Georgia, and he spent 3 years in the NFL.
