Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2019
2018
Smith played the fifth-most snaps of any fullback in 2020, but he tallied just 15 total touches, primarily operating as a lead blocker in Atlanta's offense. The veteran fullback has just nine carries total across two seasons, but his 11 receptions last season was at least notable considering the lack of current depth at running back.
Smith appeared in all 16 games during his first season as a Raider last year, though he primarily served on special teams in addition to his minor role as Oakland's No. 1 fullback. Without much competition behind him at the position, expect Smith to once again provide a run-blocking presence with minuscule fantasy upside in the team's backfield.
A former linebacker, head coach Jon Gruden brought Smith with him to Oakland this offseason to serve as the team's primary fullback. Smith logged just two carries in four seasons with the Cowboys, so he's expected to primarily serve as a blocker for starting running back Marshawn Lynch in short-yardage situations.
