The WR in the draft most like Smitty is Kendall Wright at baylor

[woco]

Watch him tonight. Reminds me of Steve. He is a smaller but powerful and fast WR.

[DaCityKats]

have to agree.has major production at Baylor, i will be watching this game.

I thought Gettis was the heir apparent to the smitty mold.

As much as I'd like a clone, I think I'd prefer a go up and get it player that's 6'2" or taller with big hands and mean. Couple of those in 1st round this year....and even into the second. All depends on their 40s and off the defender abilities...can't make another Jarrett-type pick.

I think the most important quality for a WR in the NFL (excluding being 6'5") is the ability to get separation. That is why smitty is so good. Height matters but getting open is more important. If you can get open and run a 4.2 forty, thats even better.

[woco]

how would you defend smitty, wright and gettis on the field at the same time if you think the option might be coming? Just a thought

Gettis' mold is nothing like Smitty if you mean physical mold. Pilares is the closest thing we have to a Smitty mold (AE is too skinny). But Pilares doesn't seem fast enough to get away with his height disadvantage yet.

They said Baylor's defense was horrible before the game and they weren't kidding. I'm going to need Baylor to maintain a drive so I can see some more of him. I've read a lot about Wright lately and was looking forward to seeing this game. I do agree with the op's premise though a lot people try to compare a lot of smaller receivers to Smitty but Wright seems to have the physical nature like Smith.

[Clicheking]

I have to apologize to Baylor for that last statement.....both teams defenses are aweful. If you aren't watching this game you should be they are about to set some records for offense production and its just heading into the fourth quarter.

[Cat'sGrowl]

This game is awful.

Not only is Washington the most boring team in the entire world, the complete lack of any sort of defensive talent in this game is just stupid.

I like shoot outs as much as the next guy, but I like my shoot outs to be chess matches, not a total lack of any competentcy on defense. This just sucks. Defenses are so fundamentally poor that it's literally a 45 yard gain every 3 plays or so.

[Cat'sGrowl]

And Wright just dropped the Super Cam.

Stupid unoriginal kids.

[Clicheking]

On a positive note Wright just caught a long pass and did the Superman poise....he'll fit right in. I give up though you can't judge this performance because of these piss poor defenses. I'll just sit back and enjoy the rest of this madness.

[TheSeagull]

And Wright just dropped the Super Cam.

Stupid unoriginal kids.

You ever seen anyone copy a celebrating from any Panther player before that? Just makes me happy knowing that we have national presence.

Anyone know what Wright's stock looks like? Can we get him 4th or later?

[Lout]

Joe Adams from Arkansas is in the Smitty mold. Great return man.. and looks very physical.. smaller in stature.

[JawnyBlaze]

I hear Adams is a good returner. If he's there in the 4th or 5th we should give him a shot.
