A lot of teams will take a guy that they really want a round early because they know that player will not be there when their turn comes back around. Happens quite frequently.
Smith wasn't making it out of the first round even if the Cowboys didn't take him. He wasn't going to be there in the 2nd for the Cowboys or anyone else to take.
Yea and I'd be ok with him going somewhere else. Give me Loyd who would start right away not because he's a high pick but because the kid can play and it would give Micah freedom to rush the passer. Or Jermain who was highly graded by many or one of the best center prospects who is the exact opposite of Smith. Technically perfect, plays with good leverage, great feet work, just not as big or as strong. He will be a good immediate starter. Well have to see if Smith can even beat out McGovern and you lose some ability with the type of blocks Smith is limited in doing.
