2025 Fantasy Outlook
There wasn't much doubt at the time, but Smith's performance in 2024 reaffirmed the Ravens' decision to prioritize keeping him in the purple and black while letting Patrick Queen walk to a division rival. Smith operated without an effective partner in the middle of Baltimore's linebacker corps after Queen's departure, as Trenton Simpson fell flat attempting to step into the role. That in turn forced Malik Harrison into a role he wasn't necessarily suited for. Despite that challenge, Smith was able to tally at least 150 tackles in his fourth consecutive season and his durability and importance to his team make him one of the safest IDP selections on the board.

Optimistic to return Week 8
Smith (hamstring) expressed optimism Monday that he would be cleared to return for the Ravens' Week 8 home clash against the Bears on Sunday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Smith was sidelined for the Ravens' last two games due to a hamstring injury he sustained against the Chiefs in Week 4. He benefited from extra rest courtesy of the Week 7 bye, but his practice participation over the coming week will provide clarity on his chances of returning for Week 8. The veteran linebacker compiled 34 tackles (24 solo) and returned a fumble for a touchdown across four regular-season games prior to his injury.

In the last four seasons, Smith has never finished lower than sixth in the league in total tackles. In large part, that consistency has been due to Smith's ability to stay on the field. After being banged up for parts of his first two years in the league with the Bears, he has turned in four consecutive seasons with over 1,000 total snaps. During his first full season in Baltimore in 2023, Smith was also asked to take on additional responsibility as a cover linebacker. He played a career-high 649 snaps in coverage (per PFF) and responded by breaking up a career-best seven passes. Heading into 2024, Smith will remain the centerpiece of the Ravens' defense, though he will face a new challenge of not having Patrick Queen lining up alongside him. Smith will likely be asked to take on even more as a result, which could increase his production so long as the Baltimore defensive line plays well enough to occupy opposing offensive linemen in order to keep him clean.
