Also, we're talking about the RG position here. If you're going to start a rookie anywhere on the line, that's the spot to do it.
Doesn't really matter, though. Reid is going to play whoever he's most comfortable with. If Smith goes out and plays at a higher level than anyone else at the position to the point where Andy gives him the job, then great. That means he truly earned it. If not, then so be it. Our starting RG isn't going to make or break the season either way.
