Smith is a bigger, longer guy and Nick won't get bigger so Smith is ahead there. I think they're both gritty, tenacious guys that aren't super nimble or athletic. Good run blocking, decent pulling, but get them to the second level and they look like infant giraffes.
I'm excited about Smith's development and think he's a steal. Barring catastrophe, he won't start this year. Next year, if he's installed, you have to like the balance along the line with strong run and pass blocking at various points.
