Quick answer
Buy lowSmith had 5 solo tackles, 2 sacks in 2026, ranking LB102 through 5 games. He ranks LB102 through 5 games, after LB146. The season isn't over. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
