“I expect to play alot,” Smith said. “Im looking forward to having my best season, my body is in excellent condition.”
We asked Smith about where he feels about his ability, “The more seasons I get, the more crafty I get as a pass rusher. Im getting better in my opinion.”
Smith only tallied 3 sacks in 16 games for the Raiders last season but admitted the sack opportunities “weren’t as plentiful” in Oakland. He shouldn’t have that issue playing alongside Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware.
