Brashard Smith Fantasy Overview

The Kansas City Chiefs selected SMU RB Brashard Smith with the 228th pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Smith entered college as a WR at Miami. He flashed athletic talent but was never quite able to crack the Hurricanes’ deep rotation. From 2021-2023, the Florida native totaled only 69 catches, 770 yards, and 4 TDs. While in the transfer portal, SMU approached him about moving to RB and utilizing his explosion differently. It worked. Smith ran for 1,332 yards and 14 TDs this past season, adding 39 catches for 327 yards and 4 TDs. Like current Giant Tyrone Tracy, Smith easily transitioned from WR to RB and found his future spot in the NFL. The Combine only helped his draft stock, as he blazed a 4.39 forty time and showed elite short-area burst with a 1.54 ten-yard split. Those were key marks, as Smith checks in at 5’10, 194 pounds.
