Smith, Andre Virginia Tech 6042 271 4.80
Started 25 games in his career. Was Tyrod Taylor’s favorite red
zone target, catching five touchdown passes. A big target with
soft hands. Lines up at H-back, wing back, slot, and at the
conventional tight end position next to the tackle. Can adjust
and block on the run. Looks the part as the classic long-armed
and big handed receiver. However he has some technique flaws
that need to be cleaned up including ending up on the ground on
base blocks. Okay initially into block, but he falls off by
overextending and losing his balance as a waist bender. At times
he looks like a stick and stay blocker (would like to see him
finish better). Not a killer on the down angle blocks or double
teams. Doesn’t bring his feet. Has all the tools of the trade if he
has the desire to improve his blocking.
