New QB Smith sees talent on Bills roster, looks to turn heads

[BillsWin]

New free-agent signee Brad Smith sees the Bills as a team eager to prove people wrong.

"I come from a place where everyone tells me I can't do something, you're not good enough and you don't fit in here. I think we have a group of guys who feel that way, too. We may be not the most respected group of guys because of whatever reason. I think we are so talented right now that we are going to prove a lot of people wrong. ...

"I look at the roster and I see just as much talent as those teams. It's not really about who you have; it's what you do with what you have."

Per Buffalo News.



Good attitude to have from Smith.

we brought him in as a weapon and he will likely be used at QB at times

the nice thing about running with QB's he can then switch to any position on the Offense

He's listed as the 3rd QB on the depth chart AND Gailey has said he is the third QB.

i hope the bills packages for him are more imaginative than wildcat run plays. i hope they are off reverses, of him lining up as H back and rolling out and back. I'd love to see the bills but in a crazy formation that just has teams confused out of their mind on how to stop.

3rd QB/WR/KR/OW = offensive weapon

Re: New QB Smith sees talent on Bills roster, looks to turn heads

Very unusual for a newly signed player to complement his new team. Typically you expect free agent signings to come in and unfavorably compare the talent on the new team to their old team.

I think a double flea flicker reverse will be his go to play.

I mean it works in Flag Football...

Re: New QB Smith sees talent on Bills roster, looks to turn heads

thanks for that DB. I just hope the bills can be more creative than wildcat. because for the most part, the wildcat bores the crap out of me because the QB hardly throws out of it and it's a slow developing option play that typically runs out of room.

If he is going to be a QB on plays, i want to see him get it in situations were the defense isn't really sure what's going happen because it comes out of a regular formation

When Chan was OC in Pittsburg with Kordell "Slash" Stewart, I never heard his offense called wildcat.

I think Chan will be creative in his use of Smith myself. I do know Jets fans were not happy about losing Smith, so that is a good sign about his ability.

I do respect the dudes optimism, sorry I don't share in it though.

We'll see if he sings the same tune after week 10.

Please don't compare Kordell Stewart and Brad Smith.

Please don't compare Kordell Stewart and Brad Smith.

Why not? They are both very good athletes with a varied skill set.

Because one is actually a QB, while the other is not.
