Smith: "I know the game really well. I love watching tape and studying game film. I'm a true student of the game.
"I'm a great athlete too and know which angles to take and which cuts to take. I'm an all-around type player, but I played mostly quarterback and safety, so I need to get better at corner. I want to work on my back pedal and my footwork. I'd like to get faster too."
