A revamped body could make D’Ante Smith the steal of the draft

The Cincinnati Bengals had a thrilling couple of days last weekend. While many will harp on them for not bolstering their offensive line sooner, the Bengals nabbed three linemen in the draft, including second-round pick Jackson Carman.

With several mid- to late-round additions that felt undervalued, the Bengals may have landed the steal of the draft in fourth-round pick OT D’Ante Smith from East Carolina University.

Smith was the second of the three linemen taken, and his dynamic skill set may have been lost as he opted out the last season of his collegiate career.
