Filing this week’s mailbag from the press box high above where this season will end: State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz. And you had questions. And we had answers …
From Andres Perdomo (@andres__perdomo): What teams should we expect to make a push at Roquan Smith?
Andres, one thing that I think is so interesting about this situation is that as good a player as Smith is, he’s really not an ideal fit for Matt Eberflus’s defense. Look at the Colts’ linebackers (Eberflus’s former team)—Shaquille Leonard, Bobby Okereke and E.J. Speed are all big, long, hyperathletic players. Smith, conversely, has a tree-stump sort of build and relies more on instincts than flat-out speed to fuel his Zach Thomas–like game.
