Many observers are quite down on Troy Smith’s NFL potential after viewing him at the NFL Combine.  This according to Mike Kils (Denver Post) 2/27 Article, who says that many media members enjoy tearing Heisman Trophy winners off of their perch.
       On the heels of Smith’s poor performance in the BCS Championship game in which he completed just four passes for 35 total yards, critics point at Smith’s small stature as one reason why he’s not NFL caliber. Frustrated with being constantly reminded of that, Troy Smith snapped at one reporter.  ”"You make it sound like being 6-foot is a disease,” Smith said.
       Kils’ article speculates that further questions about Smith’s arm strength may have him not picked until the 2nd day of the NFL Draft when team’s are just filling in roster spots.
