Thanks for the link to the story. The kid definitely sounds easy to root for.

To the moron that voted negative on every good comment about this kid who many of us locally know, why do you grow a pair and identify yourself and why you would be such a loser.

This is a kid who overcame great odds, took care of his family as if he were years older than he was, graduated from college and is a class act.

Grow a pair and identify yourself so we can call you out for the miscreant that you are.

This kid is everything that’s right with college football. He’s a good kid and a real talent. If he’d have returned next season, now that the Terps finally have a good QB, barring injury he’d have been a top 15 pick.

I’m rooting for him. This is one MD WR I’d love to have on my team anyday.

Torrey ran 4.6. But it was a fast 4.6, not a slow one.

I hope the best for this kid. I hope the NFL life doesn’t corrupt him or anything, and his family can be happy for the rest of their lives. They’ve certainly earned every bit of it.

I’ve met this dude before and watched him from the sidelines. He’s a real class act and a phenomenal receiver that was plagued by an absolute tool of a quarterback two seasons ago. I really wish for big things for this guy, and hope he goes to a quarterback like Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, or Peyton Manning, so people can see what this guy is really capable of. Either that, or I hope he goes to a team like St. Louis and becomes the next big QB-WR tandem with Sam Bradford.

Honestly, the dude can be the next Mike Wallace, or even more, easily. Watch out for this guy.

I think he’d be a good fit for Atlanta . They need a number two Jenkins isn’t great and if you noticed he pushes off alot to get separation . Falcons need a deep threat roddy is great but not blazing speed .

He should help Cam Newton on all things public image.

Smith overcame supreme odds growing up. But at least he didn’t have Cecil Newton as his Dad.

would love for the skins to pick this kid up in the middle rounds…of course we would need to acquire some mid level picks first

I wish the kid great success. I’ve seen a few interviews and he looks and acts genuine to me.

this is an honest to goodness, good kid. i wish him the best that life has to offer. he was a credit to UM football and when he decided to leave, I don’t know anyone who begrudged the decision given his life story. I hope he is selected in the first round and I am pulling for this kid to be a success. Even though the Ravens have more pressing needs, I would happily expend my first round pick on this guy. You just can’t have enough quality people on your team.

Good luck Torrey in all you do.

G-d bless

Watch some of his highlights to see how amazing this kid really is. His QB made some horrible throws and Smith made the catches look effortless. He’s gonna be good.

He’ll probably run a 4.35.
