Even after seeing his draft stock fall ahead of the 2021 NFL Draft, Philadelphia Eagles rookie DeVonta Smith continues to impress. The No. 10 overall pick in this year's draft impressed head coach Nick Sirianni and others at rookie minicamp a few weeks ago. Now, he's doing the same at OTAs.

The skilled pass-catcher and 2020 Heisman Trophy winner was caught on video making an incredible one-handed grab during the workouts. Honestly, this catch is a thing of beauty.

Smith will look to continue making these circus catches look easy throughout the summer and once the 2021 NFL season kicks off. If he does, he'll easily win over the Philadelphia fanbase. And, it wouldn't be that surprising considering the accomplishments Smith racked up in college at Alabama.

Over the past two years at Alabama, Smith recorded 185 receptions with 3,112 receiving yards and 37 touchdowns. If not for his undersized frame, he easily could have been the top wideout in this year's draft. It wouldn't be surprising to see the Heisman Trophy winner use that draft stock slipping as an extra source of motivation entering his rookie campaign.

Right now, the Eagles own just +550 odds to win the NFC East, according to the latest NFL odds on FanDuel Sportsbook. If Smith can replicate anything close to what he did at Alabama, there's a good chance Philadelphia could make some noise in 2021.
