Summary

After a preseason rookie year injury kept him from getting up to speed, Roquan Smith's second year as a pro was derailed with a season-ending pectoral muscle tear. Heading into his third year, Smith finally had a clean bill of health and lived up to his price tag as the eighth overall pick in 2018. He finished sixth in tackles, fourth in tackles for losses in addition to a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, two interceptions, four sacks, and six quarterback hits. He'll look to improve on that breakout year in his fourth year in the league, still just 24 years old. Smith is great at coverage and set a career-high with seven passes defended in 2020. He struggles to shed blockers occasionally in the run game but rarely misses tackles in the open field. The former Georgia product has all of the makings to be one of the best linebackers in the game and will be drafted for his ceiling in 2021 IDP leagues.
