Smith tied for the Mountain West Conference lead with five interceptions. He helped slow down Alabama receiver Julio Jones in the Utes' Sugar Bowl victory.Another blow to our defense, though I think this one was more expected. As far as I've seen, he's a 1st day pick right now (as is Kruger).Smith hopes to run in the high 4.3 or low 4.4 40-yard dash at the combine in February.

Projections
Smith projects as no lower than a second-round pick. His size is nearly perfect for CB or S, his speed and covering ability make him a potential contributor early in his rookie season.
Kruger, I think, is no lower than a second round pick. He has the speed to get around some big tackles on the pass rush. It’ll be interesting to see how he’s used as a rookie. Will he be a pass-rusher? Will he be used mostly in run situations? Will he eventually be an OLB?
Good luck to both.
