Harrison Smith – affectionately known as The Hitman – has been an elite defender in Minnesota for more than a decade.
In 2012, the Vikings made the Notre Dame safety a 1st-round selection, hopping up to 29th overall to ensure he traded Green & Gold for Purple & Gold. Looking back, it was one of the absolute best decisions Rick Spielman ever made.
