Instant Fantasy Analysis - TE Jonnu Smith, Titans

[The Football Guru 212]

Smith was an ultra-productive player at Florida International and should be a savvy pick for Tennessee in that he is probably the tight end most like Delanie Walker in this draft, which suggests the Titans hope he eventually takes over for the veteran. The 6-3, 248-pounder has endured his share of adversity over the last two years, missing the final four games of the 2015 season with a knee injury before he was a victim in an incident in which his girlfriend poured boiling water on him this past fall. Smith is actually very quick for his position (short-shuttle time of 4.18 is better than the combine average for receivers) and an above-average route-runner, although his hands are a bit inconsistent and his blocking needs work. He can be ignored in fantasy, but he is a nice insurance policy for Walker.
