Draft Prospect: NC Central DB Ryan Smith

[Mr. Scot]

Set for a private workout with the Panthers per Aaron Wilson...

North Carolina Central defensive back Ryan Smith is a fast-rising NFL draft prospect.

Smith has private workouts with the Arizona Cardinals, Detroit Lions, New York Jets, Carolina Panthers, New England Patriots and Baltimore Ravens.

The All-Mid-Eastern Conference selection ran the 40-yard dash in 4.47 seconds at the NFL scouting combine with a 36-inch vertical leap, a 10-2 broad jump, a 6.88 three-cone drill and bench pressed 225 pounds 18 times.

The kid has played Safety, WR, and is a KR also. He models his game after Patrick Peterson (obviously one of his "heroes").

Good luck to him. I like that the Panthers are checking out more players in our own backyard. If he isn't drafted, I would think that he would sign with either us or B-more, that's if we give him a call.

6 feet tall, and that 40 time is going to get you some attention

He's projected as a 7th rounder, and from what I've read about him, I hope he can play ST, because he looks like back-up material at best, as a CB.

Looks like a good prospect for Nickel CB, we need a player with good speed and quick twtich muscle to stop all these underneath routes and screens.
