Devil's advocate is when someone comes in and argues against something, rather than jumping on board and following blindly with the others involved. Sometimes in a meeting a devil's advocate is designated on purpose to try to find problems with options that are being discussed to make sure issues are looked at from all sides.
No where does playing a devil's advocate involve coming up with half baked crazy ideas.
