In reply to Martin.

I think Smith is fine. He may be trying too hard still and not allowing his natural ability to take over. To me, overrunning and not wrapping up in lieu of making the "big hit" are symptoms of over-trying and are both coachable and correctable. His skill set is unique and legit. Let's see how Nolan uses him and reigns him in. He needs to quit "thinking" he's a leader with too much responsibility and just start be a leader through his play (not words). As long as Lee shares that LB room with him, he needs to bow tro him and not try to be him.
