Devonta Smith may be the lowest-rated member of Ohio State's top-rated recruiting class of 2021, but his on-field versatility and playmaking are exceptional.
Standing at 6 feet tall and 185 pounds – near the prototypical frame for an Ohio State cornerback – Smith is extremely versatile, possessing the skill and technique to cover any player on the field in any type of coverage. He is also very physical and is more than willing to lay the smackdown to anyone with the ball. Finally, because of his background as a wide receiver, Smith has top-notch ball skills.
