Tennessee offensive lineman Trey Smith might be facing an uphill path to the NFL. On the field he shows the potential to be a solid starting guard. However, in a year in which the NFL will likely be much more conservative than usual, medical red flags could torpedo Smith’s draft stock.
Smith looks almost exactly like the player any offensive line coach would want getting off the team bus first. At 6-foot-5 1⁄2 inches, 331 pounds, with 33 1⁄2 inch arms, he has solid length and a thick, powerful build.
