What exactly was Smith going to be asked to do? Stop the run? You know he will get tore up in coverage. Not saying Harper is good in coverage, but he is better than Willy.

Take on lineman, for one. I'm sure Harper would be fantastic trying to control the line of scrimmage. OLB isn't just about dropping in coverage or being a speed rusher. We need a OLB who can stop the run and help control the line more than one that will be great in coverage.

One thing Smith can do better than Harper is not get thrown out of bounds when he's one on one with an OT.
