Jonnu Smith — Tight End

  • Receptions: 17
  • Receiving yards: 204
  • Receiving touchdowns: 2

Jonnu Smith was drafted to be the heir to Delanie Walker, but he’s going to be a bit of a project.

Smith is very athletic, and he’s actually a good blocker, so he shouldn’t have any problems getting on the field.

I’m not sure, however, just how involved in the offensive scheme he will be early. I think he’ll make some plays, but I don’t expect him to be a key part of the offense in 2017.

Smith will probably flash his potential at times, but this is a guy that’s going to require some time before he truly breaks out.
