I still think his best position, if he has one in the NFL, will be in the slot, where he can be a mismatch.
Foster see Chuck's post.
As for Smithiak, being the guys who draft requires you to be able to build an entire team, not just one side of the ball.
I will give you that most teams have clueless GMs and they can not draft worth a d@mn.

He wasn't a good WR at Mobile because he had no past training as a WR, out in space type guy. Smithiak saw that and had the good sense to go after him.
I agree that Smithiak weren't any good at drafting defensive players. But in this past Draft with Wade Phillips advising, I think we will see, that that side of the ball is now being well served.
If every GM was good at drafting, we would have a league of contenders every year, not just a select few that we do have.
