Eagles selected Texas A&M WR Ainias Smith with the No. overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Smith (5’9/190) proved to be a shifty slot receiver during his five years at Texas A&M, and forced 20 missed tackles in his final season while going for 53-795-2. He forced a missed tackle on 28.3 percent of his receptions for his career but had a pedestrian 5.9 YAC/REC for his career. Smith has also rushed 72 times for 405 yards and four touchdowns and went for 49-293-4 on the ground as a sophomore. His size, playmaking skills, and ability to move the ball on the ground and through the air make for a nice profile as a gadget player for whatever team drafts him. He also should compete for a chance to return kicks; something that has become more valuable with the new kickoff rules.
