Marcus Smith

Like Agholor, Smith has done close to nothing since being drafted. The only difference with Smith is that he’s had two years of lackluster play.

In his two years with the Eagles, Smith has recorded seven tackles and 1.5 sacks, which is less than equal to Brandon Graham‘s single-game performance against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9 last season.

Smith may still be young, but he is not guaranteed a roster spot, especially given the emergence of Steven Means this preseason. Smith needs to show the Eagles’ coaching staff that he’s worth keeping around and Saturday may be his last shot to do so.
