Smith has somehow played so poorly that he's now a backup RT. Still I mean what should St. Louis have done? They already invested the #2 pick last year in Smith and then went back this year and made what looks to be a pretty nice pick in Saffold, who ironically is playing to the level they expected Smith to be playing at. Oh well, we'll probably trade for Smith with a 5th round pick in a year or two.
