Dragon vs DragonSlayer...Hmmmmm.

Well, there is one obvious problem when it comes to lone dragon killers: Dragons, being giant winged fire breathing monsters, some wielding human-level sentience or higher, can sack whole cities. Smaug himself drove out hordes of Dwarves from Erebor/The Lonely Mountain, and demolished the human city of Dale on the same day. Each would have been defended by large forces. It was only through luck that Bard the Gardsman, of the people of Laketown, learned the weak spot in Smaug's armor and brought him down with the black arrow: if it wasn't for that knowledge, Smaug would have brought more ruin to the humans of that northern realm. And we expect one lone dragonslayer to kill a beast that burns whole armies, a beast whose weak spot is unknown to the Dragonborn?

Plus, we must take into account the fact that Smaug's hypnotizing powers can easily break the will of human beings. Even Bilbo was drawn to the dragon's powers in this department, avoiding the mind control of the dragon through Inbuilt Hobbit-style stubborness and evasive action. The Silmarillion likewise details an encounter between a human hero (I cannot remember the name) being mind controled by a dragon that didn't have wings, and the dragon, if it wanted, could have killed him at any time while the human was frozen in trance. How can the Dragonborn overcome this barrier, especially since he does not know Smaug wields this power?

Smaug will sniff out the Dragonborn, he will mesmerize him, and he will demolish him.

SMAUG THE GOLDEN FIRES THE DRAGONBORN!!!!!
