2024 Fantasy Outlook
Things have mostly gone as expected for Smith since the Eagles took him 10th overall in 2021, though he started 2023 slow with averages of 54.7 yards and 7.7 YPT over his first seven games. He then averaged 75.9 yards and 11.0 YPT over the next nine games (with a 79 percent catch rate) and exploded for 148 yards in an opening-round playoff loss that A.J. Brown missed with a knee injury. The most discouraging development wasn't Smith's early season pseudo-slump, nor the Eagles' late-season collapse -- it was his target share dropping from 27.0 percent in 2022 down to 22.9 percent in 2023 (active games only). Brown's share went up just a tick (28.6 to 29.8), while the RBs' portion skyrocketed from 12.1 percent to 17.8. Smith nonetheless posted a solid receiving line (81-1.066-7 on 112 targets), fueled by career highs for catch rate (72.3) and YPT (9.5), though in fantasy terms it was a step back from his 95-1,196-7 line in 2022. While history suggests new Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore will keep RBs involved in the passing game, Moore's offenses also have tended to be WR-friendly, with highlights including a trio of 100-target receivers for the 2020 Cowboys and Keenan Allen producing a career-high 95.6 yards per game last year in Los Angeles. Even if Smith doesn't rebound to (or surpass) his 2022 production, the combination of age (25), talent and QB familiarity makes him one of the safer picks among players commonly taken in the third/fourth round of fantasy drafts.

RANKS
First 100-yard performance
Smith recorded 11 receptions on 12 targets for 109 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-13 win over the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
Smith led the Eagles' strong showing through the air, pacing the team in targets and receptions. He tallied long gains of 22 and 20 yards to surpass 100 yards for the first time on the campaign. Smith also hauled in a two-yard touchdown pass early in the second quarter, his second score in as many games since returning from a hamstring injury. His opportunities are often relatively limited -- this marked the first time he's topped seven targets since Week 3 -- which has caused inconsistent production, though Smith showcased his fantasy potential with this performance.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2022
2021
GM Howie Roseman hit the nail on the head when he traded up for the 10th overall pick to take Smith in the 2021 draft. While results have been mixed on slim wideouts with hefty college production in recent years, the 170-pounder out of Alabama has proven himself capable of beating press coverage, making contested catches and even throwing blocks to help Philadelphia's prolific running game. On top of that, Smith finished last year with only eight fewer targets than uber-talented teammate A.J. Brown, with both wideouts cruising past 1,000 yards in an offense led by a dominant offensive line and a breakout star at quarterback in Jalen Hurts. Smith's aDOT dropped from 13.9 as a rookie to 9.6 last year with Brown taking over more of the deep looks, but his YPT held steady at 8.8 thanks to a 69.9 percent catch rate. Smith now enters his third NFL season right in the conversation with Jaylen Waddle and Tee Higgins to be considered the best No. 2 WR in the league.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Won't play vs. Rams
Smith, who's dealing with a hamstring injury, has been ruled out for Sunday night's Week 12 matchup against the Rams, Field Level Media reports.
ANALYSIS
Smith sat out of practice all week, teeing up his second absence of the season. The speedster played a robust 62 snaps in a Week 11 win over the Commanders on Thursday night, Nov. 14, so it's unclear when the injury occurred, and it's noteworthy that even the extra time between games wasn't sufficient to allow him to recover.
