Ravens QB Troy Smith

1st off, apologies for the hit and run. Just about to head out from work, so I'm gonna post, take off, and check back later.

New Ravens HC Harbaugh recently had some nice things to say about QB Troy Smith.

From Rotoworld...

Troy Smith-QB- Ravens May. 12 - 9:48 am et

Ravens coach John Harbaugh believes Troy Smith "can play quarterback in the NFL, without question."

Smith is the slight underdog, behind Kyle Boller, to start in Week 1. "He's got the arm," Harbaugh said. "He can move around and operate the offense. Now under pressure, proving himself in games, that's going to be up to him."



Now, obviously a curious comment from the HC who just drafted a QB in the 1st round of the draft this year. With Kyle Boller also on the roster, seems a not so subtle announcement to me that Troy Smith is on the market.

He came in for a few games last year, and I thought looked pretty good.

Appeared in 4 games, starting the last 2 of the year. In those 2 starts:

Wk 16, 16-33 for 199 yds, 1TD, 0 INT
Wk 17, 16-27 for 171 yds, 1TD, 0 INT

Not blowing anybody away, but I saw a little of the games, and he had nice presence on the field. Anybody have any interest here? What might it take in a trade would you think? Greg Wesley anyone?

I'd give them Thigpen but they'd have to throw in a player with potential along with Smith.

Can Somebody find me a quote from a head coach that says: " *insert QB here* cant play QB in the NFL. Without question, he just doesnt possess the skills nessasary to play at this level"

I think every NFL coach said that about Eric Crouch.

would be ok for a 3rd string qb..who knows, maybe he could start in the league someday? Like I said, at the very least he would make a nice 3rd stringer behind croyle/thigpen

Well, any QB who makes it to the NFL level obviously has talent. Its 90% mental.

I'd love to have Troy Smith, very pocket aware, and is very accurate. One knock is his height, but I think he would do well in the NFL.

Troy smith would be nice to have on the bench to come in and light a spark or use him in the red zone because he can run but if the D had time to game plan around him I think he would suck. I don't think he has anywhere close the physical ability that Mike Vick has. Is he smarter? Probably, but it's hard to show it when oppos he just got sacked by flordia again
