Akili Smith, former Oregon Ducks quarterback, was the No. 3 pick in the 1999 NFL Draft. He joined me on the Bald-Faced Truth radio show to talk about the advice he'd give current Ducks quarterback Justin Herbert.
Listen to the full interview here.
I always think it's interesting to get life experience from people who have been through a similar experience. Smith's draft stock rose, and he followed Tim Couch and Donovan McNabb into the NFL as the No. 3 pick. By 2003, 22 games later, he was out of the NFL.
What advice would Smith give Herbert?
