Reid prefers an athletic playmaker at the position with the agility to elude the pass rush, but someone who also possesses the arm talent to defeat opponents with pinpoint passes. Smith is a standout pocket passer with excellent arm strength. He has the capacity to make pinpoint throws with zip and velocity, while also showing superb touch on anticipatory throws. Although Smith experienced some struggles down the stretch with his pocket awareness as a senior at West Virginia, he is a perfect fit in Reid's version of the West Coast offense that features a mixture of intermediate and movement-based passes.
