He doesn’t want it to deter anyone. Some scouts focus on measurables too much.

Not true. He allowed them to measure his hands and weigh his Heisman.

Meh, 4 inches makes zero difference with 1+ yard of separation.

He will do it at BAMAs pro day. Teams are not going to draft him because he is 6’ or 6’1 and somewhere between 150-175 pounds. They will draft him because he is a proven commodity at WR going into a pass centric league

Tyreke Hill is pretty small too. Smith may be a little slower than Hill but I dont think I've ever seen a WR get open like Smith

It doesn't rally matter with all the film over his college career, but the NFL DBs may just break him.

If scouts care about his height and weight after the career he's had then they shouldn't be scouts.

Probably didn’t want to embarrass 13 teams with how badly he owned them.

So?
You don't think they've got enough tape on him to be able to evaluate him?

Calvin Ridley isn't very big either but he's still very good. Smith is a better version, IMO.

Smith's elite route running and speed will trump any size concerns. He's such a good route runner that DBs can't get their hands on him. He's very Ridley-esque in his ability to run routes with no wasted steps as well as his ability to change directions in his routes without losing any speed.

Remember when LSU fans said Devonta was only good because of his straight line speed?
