My Take
Roquan Smith is the type of defender I find genuinely thrilling. Coming out of tiny Montezuma, Georgia, he became the first Georgia Bulldog ever to win the Butkus Award, the honor reserved for the nation's finest linebacker, which signals just how special his instincts are. Now anchoring the Baltimore Ravens' defense, he reads offenses like a chess player and strikes with raw conviction. I am a sucker for the small-town-to-stardom arc, and his fits perfectly. A linebacker who combines that cerebral field awareness with sheer physical menace is a coach's dream. He is the kind of player a franchise builds its identity around, and I respect him enormously.
