Would not mind at all if my team came away with Smith; unfortunately, they traded away their fourth for a former second who did jack in the league, and taking Smith in the third in this draft with roughly 120 decent rb prospects doesn’t seem like the best use of resources.
Savion sure sounds a lot like Taysom to me. I'm guessing Nix's mobility will keep Payton from seeing a need for him. Taysom himself will keep the Saints from biting.
So I guess the 49ers as a "let's now replace Deebo" pick. Too bad. I love watching Taysoms.
The balls clanking off his hands was a red flag for me and brought to mind James Cook, who didn't do much of that in 2024 but who wants a big contract and who dropped wide-open passes I could have caught in 2023, famously against the Eagles. I wonder if this trait can be improved, with work, over time or if it's more inherent?
Savion is a lot like Taysom I think. I don't remember Taysom as a prospect at all, so I don't usually draft comp him. It's a really loaded comparison anyway.
