The Facts:
Smith prepared for the NFL scouting combine by working out with quarterback guru Chris Weinke at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla. A year later, Smith is taking the same approach to his offseason. The QB was seen Monday at IMG, working in a private session with Weinke, IMG's director of football operations.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Smith has been working with Weinke, the former Heisman Trophy winner from Florida State, in recent days, trying to stay sharp and fine-tuning his throwing mechanics. As ESPN.com's Rich Cimini suggests, it's always encouraging to hear your QB is working on his own in an effort to improve. Smith "has come a million miles" from the start of his rookie season, Rex Ryan said recently, but it's obvious that he still has a ways to go. The Jets' offseason program doesn't begin until early April, so Smith is taking a proactive approach as he prepares for his second season.
