Veteran depth piece at fullback with a blue-collar edge
Fred Smith is a 6-2, 240-pound fullback who has been valued more for role execution than headline stats, with Michigan State listing him as a veteran depth option and former wide receiver who transitioned to fullback. In the 2010 season, he appeared in eight games and contributed primarily on special teams, which points to a player coaches trust for effort, toughness, and adaptability. If a team wants a physical, assignment-sound blocker who embraces the dirty work, Smith fits that mold well.
