I import a mesh that I downloaded online, and it's got Auto Smooth enabled already. However, the normals are all janky, and are undesireable.

Below is two captures of the Normals I'm talking about.enter image description here AutoSmooth Capture1

I've also taken a picture of the funky lines that come out of the Vertices of the mesh here:enter image description here

How do I smooth my mesh without this crappy looking Normal?

The object probably has corrupted custom split normals. To clear those go Object data properties->geometry data->clear custom split normals data.
