Andre Smith Grateful, Prepared for NFL Opportunity
Posted May 4, 2018
The emotions were everywhere. "I was relieved. I was excited. I was thankful. There were so many different things going on," Andre Smith told Inside Carolina on Tuesday, just days after the former UNC linebacker had been drafted No. 234 overall (No. 16 in the seventh round) by the Carolina Panthers. Smith took a gamble when he put his name into the draft.
