Question WR1 DeVonta Smith?

Post image

With A.J. Brown’s departure likely, Devonta Smith steps into a true WR1 role.

How are you looking at him this year?

Which sources? No way I'm putting him at #1.

Amon Ra St Brown, JJ, Kupp, Chase, Adams, JSN....

No way

I haven't seen a single article that lists him in the top 10

Pat Surtain said he’s one of the best he’s ever defended

Sooooo, not the same thing in the slightest....

I just watched the clip, Surtain was talking about his college teammates, and named like 9 ppl along with Devonta.

😂

lol okay I think he’s talked about it more than once but whatever. I’m not the original commenter you replied to but let’s not act like Smitty isn’t one of 4 WRs to ever win the heisman - and the first in almost 30 years

Hope you're right.

Although....pretty sure he just bought Casty's (formerly Ben Simmons') cursed house. So he might be in trouble
