Smith appeared on Chris Long’s “Green Light” podcast and mentioned that there were two other teams he expected to be drafted by – the Giants and the Carolina Panthers. “I thought Carolina was going to draft me,” Smith said. “That’s who I thought. I knew of course the Giants, but it was all about, you have to get to 11. I knew if I was there at 11, I was for sure going to the Giants.”
