Keep Your Eyes on These 7 Undrafted NFL Rookies
Arizona Cardinals receiver Ricky Seals-Jones is one of the under-the-radar NFL prospects who could be an interesting deep sleeper for your fantasy teams.

De’Veon Smith, Running Back

To Michigan, De’Veon Smith is a hero, but to Ohio, he’s a traitor. The former high schooler from the Buckeye State declined to remain with the hometown team and instead went north to play with the Wolverines. It was probably a good decision, as he posted 2,235 rushing yards and 22 touchdowns on 495 carries over 26 starts while working in a running back committee.

He didn’t offer much through the air, though, which may hold him to early-down work only.

The 5’11”, 223-pound Smith isn’t massive, but he’s thick, and will add depth behind Miami Dolphins feature back Jay Ajayi. He doesn’t have great top-end speed or wiggle, but he’s a north-south back who drives through contact. His 7.30 three-cone time and 4.56 short shuttle weren’t impressive at the Combine, but he's seen as a bargain version of Matt Asiata, and Matt Asiata, if nothing else, knows how to find the end zone.
