To me its obvious that the Smoot signing was a good move. Smoot played extremely well for us and that's something that shouldn't be overlooked. His bad years in Minnesota was because he was placed against top recievers constantly in Minnesota.
In other words he wasn't coached to his strengths, i like Smoot alot but he is not a shutdown corner. He needs to be covering the teams 2nd or 3rd wideout. Not the Marvin Harrisons, and Chad Johnsons. Gregg Williams knows how to get the best out of Smoot. Smoot could have commanded more money out on the market. Truth is we now have a very solid backfield. More capable of covering spread offenses. This is an excellent signing by the Skins!
