If we had depth already, then yes. But he'll come in as the best pass catching option at TE... plus he's an early enrollee. Also, the 2014 class has the next super-stud already committed (Jacory Washington).

you forgetting about Dickson already. He has some experience, is bigger than Smith is now, and is a pretty dam good pass catching TE. Plus STokes is ready to play. Wouldn't have recruited him if they didn't think he was more than capable.

Stokes is an interesting cat inasmuch as I'll look forward to seeing how he's used. I wouldn't be surprised to see him in a FB/H-back role as a senior after Copeland leaves.

Smith is easily the best receiving TE on the roster once he arrives, so no doubt he plays. Hopefully his blocking skills are decent so there is no reason to keep him off the field
