I agree. There is little chance of him coming here to be a backup who is better than the starter. This team is finally making some strides, I see no point in creating a controversy by bringing him in.
The vet QB who is brought in should probably be a Doug Pedersen (GB) type. A guy who has had starts but doesn;t represent a threat to Blake's starting position. A guy who can step in at a moments notice and there is little dropoff.
I don't think Smith, at this point, is that kind of player...although he may have been had he been in camp from early on learning the intricacies of the system.
