Depends on his motivation.
If he wants to be in an NFL rotation and draw a check a few years, he will come out. He's got the size and enough tools for someone to sign him in the middle rounds.
If he wants to be a dominant force and make some postseason lists for awards, and the chance to be a 1st rd pick... he needs to come back, because it ain't happening this year.
We tend to sign a lot of guys who are willing to cash in as soon as they can, whether they've ever lived up to their potential in college or not. Smith might accept that he just isn't "it", and take the sure thing.

Being a frontrunner for something like the Outland Trophy vs being picked as a "project" DL has to monetarily significant.

Exactly. Smith reminds me of
so many LSU d lineman who tried to cash out way too early based on hype. Remember Freak?
