Smitty's pre-draft analysis of Nalo

[rmoneyg35]

I’ve seen all offseason scouts saying not to even bother looking at his 2024 tape because he played injured all season and his 2023 tape is what to expect from him. Despite the injuries and other issues he still put up huge numbers this year so I think that speaks to the kind of player he can end up being for us.

Smitty lost credibility to me when he started kissing Tepper’s ass (and ring) to curry favor with the organization and exchanged his integrity in the process…  from co-signing Rhule until he was gone, to hyping up guys like Shi and Minho when the organization wanted him to.  I really dgaf what Smitty’s evaluations are anymore.  Maybe if he spent less time kissing ass and rearranging married women’s IUDs, his evaluations would be more meaningful.

I have seen some suggestion that T-Mac has issues with work ethic. I hope those reach his ears and he takes that as motivation to work extremely hard to be dominant. 

Him and Bryce will not get along if T-Mac is lazy.

I always liked Smitty he is one of my favorite Panthers but don’t care for his WR analysis or any thoughts on football he’s just not that good.  I remember when Larry Fitzgerald was a rookie, Smitty was on WFNZ radio after a game saying how he looked slow and wasn’t impressed. Needless to say Larry had an even better career 

He is rarely even coherent.  Smitty is a great Panther but not broadcaster or talent evaluator

I think Smitty is hilarious and hope this just lights a fire in Tmac. Hes not wrong in everything hes saying either, and i think its funny how one cocky guy always has an issue with the other cocky guy.

He’s one of my all-time favorite players, but he’s historically been a pretty shitty person.  I had first-hand experience.  I trusted Smitty’s WR evaluations when he put his stamp on Cooper Kupp.  But like I said, once he started making evaluations of our players based on what the organization told him to say versus what he knew to be true, he lost all credibility to me.  And like I said, him toeing the company line about things like Rhule while he had a front row seat to see what a fuging joke he was but continuing to hype him up on broadcasts, all while taking cheap shots on easy targets like Joey Slye or some bottom of the roster straggler…  it’s reflective of shitty character.

Yeah even I am like Smitty... shut up and get a good divorce lawyer

Smitty has little man syndrome, even in his evaluations. It seems like every receiver over 6'2 he has to belittle or take down a notch. He is a classic example of not being able to take emotion out of evaluation. He builds up the little, tough guys because he relates to them. But he looks at the fluid, effortless big guys as being overrated or not hard working. He's usually wrong about a lot of his assessments because he can't get outside of his own head.

Smitty has a bit of the Chris Simms complex.  Became a personality, identified a mid rounder who became great (Kupp), and then ran on that juice for a while, as someone with that keen eye for talent.  But over time, the hit rate adjusts and you see he's not the best at it by any means.  And now they have a falsely built-up confidence in their evals and get all defensive about it.  

It's all good.  I hope McMillan proves to be a top-WR in the league and shuts these knuckleheads up.  Now it's time to get this team rev'd up for a big improvement year.

This board is funny.

Steve Smith is a pretty below-average human being.
