Smith at 3-tech in nickel and dime more that I would have anticipated.  What if he takes half his snaps there?  That knocks moves DL who can bring pressure down the draft needs list.  At the same time a guy like Sweat adds a speed rushing component to complement power players in the Smiths.As for the tape, he's got some countermoves to go with edge burst and his hand work is decent but more oftent  swiping away the tackle's punch; he could use those long arms more affectively more often.I see him as bit of a reach at #12 since he does not immediatley project as a 3-down player, more a rotational pass rush specialist where the change of pace could be useful, maybe a 40 - 50% snap guy intially.I wouldn't take him off the list at #12 but that depends on how you want to view Z. Smith's role.</blockquote>
