Scouting Report: Strengths
- An excellent blocker on the outside, Smoke also adds value in the running game.
- Smoke aggressively finishes runs and consistently falls forward in a crowd. His low pad level and a bit of wiggle keep him from absorbing big hits.
- A smooth, loose athlete with very good speed,he is a weapon in space.
- His vision is outstanding, and he has an innate understanding of when to go and when to sit back and wait for blocks to develop. He thrives as a one-cut back
- He’s patient, letting blocks develop then accelerating. He runs with a good forward lean and consistently falls forward.
- Quick feet with good vision to pick through defenses. Smoke has solid hands and body control and is a reliable receiver.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Smoke doesn’t offer a ton of wiggle, and in college, Smoke often sought out contact rather than avoiding it.
- He doesn’t have the ability as a run blocker or the violent run-after-catch ability.
- He’s not physically imposing. Smoke is small-framed and won’t be able to carry much more weight.
