DeVonta Smith is officially 6 feet and 166 pounds during the NFL’s recent medical re-check, according to Sports Illustrated.
“I think initially when you look at him, you just see his size. And if you’re the one with the responsibility of stopping him, you would underestimate him just from looking at him in warm-ups,” Hall of Fame receiver Isaac Bruce told USA TODAY Sports.
.@AlabamaFTBL @DeVontaSmith_6 all he does is score TD’s and win championships! When he isn’t doing that he is accepting his @HeismanTrophy . Who wants to score quickly in the #NFL ? #nfldraft #rolltide #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/cjwtNTpB4v

“But if you go to the film, you definitely see a lot of attributes that were very similar to Marvin Harrison as far as being able to get open, the separation he has, his ability to catch the ball in a crowd,” Bruce continued.
“I carried some of those same traits as well, just being able to separate and just being wide open instead of just open. So that’s DeVonta Smith, that was Marvin Harrison, and I was that way from some standpoints as well.”
