Arian Smith

23-Year-Old Wide ReceiverWR
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Smith was selected 110th overall by the Jets in the 2025 NFL Draft after leading Georgia with 841 receiving yards in 2024. His 4.36 speed brings a unique element to a Jets offense with a wide open WR depth chart behind Garrett Wilson, but Smith had an SEC-worst 10 drops in his final college season. Smith could carve out a prominent role right away if he curbs the drops, or he could be stuck behind some combination of Allen Lazard, Josh Reynolds, Malachi Corley, Tyler Johnson and Xavier Gipson.

Two catches in NFL debut

August 10, 2025
Smith caught two of three targets for 18 yards in Saturday's 30-10 preseason win over the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Smith's production came in the second and third quarters, well after starting quarterback Justin Fields had exited the game. Nonetheless, Smith flashed the impressive speed that enticed the Jets to draft him in the fourth round out of Georgia. The rookie wide receiver's in good position to make the 53-man roster, even if it's in a depth role at first.

Silencing doubts about hands
WRNew York Jets
August 1, 2025
Smith, who experienced trouble with drops during his final year at the University of Georgia, has made several difficult catches during training camp, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Smith was officially charged with nine dropped passes during the 2024 season with the Bulldogs, but he still finished with 48 receptions for 817 yards and four touchdowns across 14 games. The Jets invested a fourth-round pick in the speedster, and he's rewarded their faith thus far with several impressive catches, including a bomb from Justin Fields and a seven-yard touchdown reception from Tyrod Taylor in Friday's practice. Cimini notes Smith is a "lock" to make the roster thanks to his 4.36 speed and ability to play special teams.
