And that's not to say he can't complete passes one on one. I just think that man coverage exposes Smith's biggest weaknesses. His accuracy on the edges. His hesitation to put a ball on a spot instead of on an open receiver.

Well now you're talking about timed routes as opposed to throwing a person open or throwing to the open man. Not saying you're wrong...but are you specifically identifying or limiting your observation to timed routes?
