I like Troy Smith too, but he might get traded after this move. No way they keep 4 QBs IMHO. John Beck was a Cam Cameron draft pick in Miami, and he's still not ready to let him go (he should).
Smith has been wanting out of BMore, and this might be an indication of their plans for him.

It is a lot of money for a backup QB, but the Ravens feel they have a team that can win it all with Flacco, and if you put Troy Smith in there, they aren't sure they can beat the Lions, Browns, or Rams. At least that is my guess.

Bulger will be a good mentor for Flacco. He can teach him how to get sacked without even being touched.

WOW
Says a ton about what they think their chances are this year. As for Troy Smith - what a kick in the gut but the reality is he is too small anyway.

So if Smith at 6'1" is too small, then Drew Brees at 6'0" must be a horrible QB, huh?

The only place I can find Smith listed at 6'1 is Wikipedia, which I'm guessing he edits himself. NFL, CBS, Yahoo and ESPN have him at 6'0", which is still probably generous.

Smith knows he's stuck behind Flacco forever here. He's been making noise for months about wanting to go somewhere where he can play as more than a gimmick. I feel for Smith. I remember thinking when Boller was here that if Troy - with his head and heart - had Boller's body, he could be an All Pro. I think he's got the intangibles a good QB needs, just not as many of the tangibles.As for signing Bulger, I suppose it's a good move for the Ravens. It's been hard for me to tell the last couple of years whether he's lost it or if the Rams were just so damned bad that John Unitas would've feared for his life. Hopefully, Bulger is an insurance policy that won't need to be cashed.
