Max Smith brings power-player upside to ASU’s TE room
In his Arizona State profile, Max Smith is described as a strong, versatile tight end with the kind of build and blocking power that can make an offense sturdier in the run game, plus enough athletic background to threaten as a pass-catcher when the scheme asks for it. His appeal is less about flashy stat lines and more about being a dependable, physical fit who can handle contact and add edge in short-yardage situations. If a team wants a tough, versatile TE who helps set a tone, Smith is the kind of body coaches like to keep around.
