LSU Country's Zack Nagy breaks down what the Jaguars are getting in second-round defensive tackle Maason Smith.
One of the biggest swings the Jacksonville Jaguars took this offseason centers around second-round pick Maason Smith.
A former five-star recruit and the No. 20 prospect in the nation in the 2021 recruiting class, Smith appeared in nine games and started four as a true freshman. He earned Freshman All-SEC and Freshman All-American honors after 19 tackles, five tackles for loss, and four sacks. “Matt was the d-coordinator there for two years and understands him well, he spoke very highly of him, his passion for the game and stuff," Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke said after the 2024 NFL Draft.
