Atlanta Falcons RB Ito Smith is impressing Matthew Tabeek of AtlantaFalcons.com with his ability to change directions. 'If you blink at the wrong moment you can lose sight of Smith in a hurry,' said Tabeek.
Huddle Up: Todd Gurley will need to be handcuffed this season and Smith is seemingly the top candidate. He has rushed for just 421 yards and five touchdowns through his first two seasons, with another 239 yards coming as a pass-catcher. The Falcons are desperate for a rushing attack after last year's poor team performance and will need as many helping bodies as they can get. Smith could be a late-round target in deeper leagues.

Atlanta Falcons RB Ito Smith (neck) was removed from the concussion protocol Wednesday, Nov. 6, but is now dealing with a neck injury.
