Smith plays in a pass oriented offense, and is a veritable brick wall in pass protection. He has a terrific frame at 6-6 and 265 pounds with long arms and quick feet. He'll need to get a little bigger in college, but that shouldn't be a problem for him. He is a standout on defense, but his athleticism, drive, and technique make him an ideal recruit for the offensive tackle position - Scott Kennedy, Scout.com


Biography:
Started as a junior and sophomore at offensive tackle for Moreno Valley (Calif.) Rancho Verde. Was an all-CIF selection and names second team all-state underclass in 2006.

Also looks like he could be an imposing defensive end. MVP of the Los Angeles Nike Camp in 2006.

Smith reports a 3.0 core GPA but has not set a date for either the SAT or ACT.

Smith: “My strength is my size. I intimidate other guys because I’m big. I’m working on getter bigger too. I want to work on my footwork. Since I'm so big, sometimes I get off-balance.”
