Harrison Smith/Ed Reed
I've seen a lot of Minnesota games recently and I see this guy constantly making plays, he's a beast. Too bad the Ravens didn't get this guy in the 2012 draft, he would've been an awesome heir to Ed Reed.

Re: Harrison Smith/Ed Reed
He's been very good this year, especially in run support. He would have been a great draft pick for us.
The only caveat is that in Minnesota's Cover-2, he's usually only asked to defend one side of the field. We run a lot of Cover-1, which would ask him to cover more ground, and I'm not sure about his range.
Great player, though. Hopefully we can land a real talent at free safety in this year's draft.

Re: Harrison Smith/Ed Reed
The pick we traded to Minnesota was used for him.
Can't say I'm not happy though with how we managed the draft - without that trade we may not have Bernard Pierce and/or Kelechi Osemele.

He would help the team get more penalties at least

Re: Harrison Smith/Ed Reed
Um, that trade got us Upshaw...Without the trade, let's say we take Harrison. Upshaw isn't around for our 2nd round pick, so we most likely still pick KO.
