Quarterback Rank: #51 Overall: #276
At one point, it seemed Smith was the future for the Ravens at quarterback. But Joe Flacco put all those thoughts to rest last season. Smith will likely be the top backup for the Ravens until he moves onto another team. The Ravens did find ways to get Smith involved in the offense some last season, though. He had a 14-yard touchdown pass in Week 10 and ran for 24 yards getting used in various offensive formations. Expect the Ravens to use him in similar fashion this season. As for his ability, Smith doesn't have a huge arm, but can be accurate and is a great athlete, which is why the Ravens are trying to get him involved in the offense some way.

His sporadic work won't make him much of a fantasy option. You just never know when the Ravens will use him. |

| Jamison Hensley, of The Baltimore Sun, reports Baltimore Ravens QB Troy Smith lined up at wide receiver and made some nice catches Tuesday, June 2. Head coach John Harbaugh said the team likely will use Smith several ways this season. 'Without making it a huge story, I'm quite sure that Troy will be lined up in different places this year. He can split out and play receiver. He can play running back. We definitely want to expand guys,' Harbaugh said. |
