Brashard Smith (RB SMU) is a player.

Most underrated RB in the draft. Former WR ran a 4.39 at the combine.

Former WR creates matchups from empty. Has kick return prowess and led team w 1,332 rush yds (5.7 YPC) 14 TDs added 39 rec 327 4 TDs receiving. #Bears #NFLdraft #DaBears pic.twitter.com/Wup3qvAPAN

He went a lot later than I thought he would, but I really feel like Brashard Smith can be a dynamite playmaker as a rusher, receiver, and returner.

of course Andy Reid just got one of the best receiving RBs in the class who doubles as a special teams returning ace

RB Brashard Smith:

#1 in class 25% target rate on his routes

#2 in class 1.68 yards per route run

#1 in class with 1,317 return yards

4.39 40-yard dash

The receiving skills are huge plus. But this is still the NFL. For a running back in the modern NFL you have to be able to pass block. The scouting report is that he cannot pass block. That is not good. And this must be fixed or he will ride the bench. Also, with the way NFL defenses are getting smaller and faster with their front 7 you have to be able to run between the tackles. This isn't 2015 anymore. A running back has to be able to grind out tough yards these days and punish defenses when they go small.

I’m seeing warrick Dunn!!

Oh, I really like this one. I loved that dude.

Warrick Dunn 2.0 he shall become!

ESPN has an article on all the drafted RB’s.

Projected 25 numbers for Smith are:

7 carries for 30 yards
2 receptions for 15 yards
0 TD’s

I could totally see that. If he gets injured during the second drive of week 1.

But no John Riggins or Christian Okoye

Possibly Jim brown with a longer career

For the entire season? Is he going to accept a ride from John Elway or something?

I’m thinking Harvey Williams with less neck!

Actually, this one seems even more fitting than Dunn. I loved Metcalf, he was such an underrated player. That Falcons team with him, Terrance Mathis and Bert Emanuel was way ahead of it's time. All three went over 1,000 yards that year, Jeff George threw for like 4,400 yards.

That dude would be electric in the modern NFL.

If he had more rushing yards he'd easily be in the HOF. As a receiver and returner he was amazing
