DeVonta Smith would be on his way to a solid career just by repeating his rookie season, but there are many reasons why he should improve in Year 2, says RoobNBCS.
But Smith can get so much better, and there are reasons to believe he will.
To be considered elite these days, you need to be in the 1,300-yard range. The only players in Eagles history to surpass 1,300 yards in a season are Mike Quick in 1983, Irving Fryar in 1997, Jackson in 2013 and Jeremy Maclin in 2014.First of all, Smith was playing with a 1st-year starting quarterback, and even though he and Jalen Hurts had a year together at Alabama in 2018, this is a completely different offense and that was three years ago.
Something else that limited Smith was the Eagles' desire to force-feed Jalen Reagor, with disastrous results. Reagor had 57 targets, and if those targets had been spread evenly over players who can actually catch a football and make plays -- Smith, Dallas Goedert, Quez Watkins, Kenny Gainwell -- it would have helped the entire offense, Smith included. The Eagles tried everything to involve Reagor, and that won't happen in 2022.
One other thing that will help Smith -- and this goes back to Reagor -- is that the Eagles know they have to upgrade the wide receiver room, and if they draft a WR who can contribute and/or sign a free agent who can contribute along with the anticipated continued improvement by Watkins, now all of a sudden, defenses will have more to worry about and they won't be able to slide all their coverage to Smith.
