The Jaguars have selected DT D’Anthony Smith out of Louisiana Tech was the 74th pick (3rd round) of the NFL Draft.  He certainly looks the part at 6′2″, 300 pounds but he never dominated despite playing against questionable competition at Louisiana Tech.  One has to wonder if he will step up his game or not.  Smith played in 12 games (all starts) for La. Tech and he finished up with 51 tackles, 5.5 tackles for a loss, 3.5 sacks and one fumble recovery.  He played in 49 games (36 starts) in his four years in college and he finished up with 197 tackles, 24 tackles for a loss, 12 sacks, 4 batted down passes, 1 forced fumble and he recovered 1 fumble.  Smith will have to develop a mean streak or the Jags are going to have a tough time getting him playing time any time soon.
