The Eagles spent their first three picks on defense before turning to the offensive side. After taking Clemson running back Will Shipley in the fourth round, the Eagles used a fifth-round choice on Texas A&M receiver Ainias Smith.
Smith is a jack-of-all trades.
He is one of the top returners in the draft and played slot, outside receiver and at running back on offense in 2023.
Smith is the only 2,000-yard receiver in SEC history also to have at least 250 yards on rush attempts, kickoff returns and/or punt returns.
He averaged 10.2 yards on 82 career punt returns, with two touchdowns, and had 20 career kickoff returns for a 18.0-yard average.
