He’s well ahead of Allegretti. It’s less development and more hoping he doesn’t die because of blood clots. He absolutely has the talent to start.

There's not a chance that Smith will start at Right Guard before Kyle Long or LDT, unless of course it's due to injury and even then, I'd expect Veach to sign a veteran before throwing Smith out there after last season's offensive line woes.

The Chiefs had similar offensive line woes in 2014. They threw Fulton out there but sat LDT. It was the last year the Chiefs missed the playoffs and the line was so bad that there were no TD's by a WR all season long.

They'd move Thuney, Wiley, or Remmers to RG before Smith gets a chance this year.

Yep, or Allegretti or someone else with experience.

Look people, Tennessee is not the Tennessee of the past. They are 10-24 in the past 4 years in SEC games.

If his blood clotting issue is under control, Smith has serious upside but even then, he's not an NFL starting guard right now, especially on a team with Super Bowl aspirations.

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.
