I know you have a cool attachment to him via school, but do you think he is a good pickup?

 

Honestly I wish we would fill areas of real need first but he's a playmaker and you can never have enough of them. My guess is they plan on expanding CJ's role in the offense a lot (duh) and don't want to risk injury to him in the return game. Brad Smith is a stand up guy, will be great in the locker room, and DYNAMIC in the return game. The fact that he didn't get voted into the Pro Bowl last year as a returner was a joke.

What position is he going to play?

He will play several positions. He'll be the #3 QB, the Wildcat QB, some WR, some RB, a KR, a gunner on ST, and likely some Slash kind of packages as a QB that Gailey designs for him. He's a very good, talented, exciting, athletic player.

At least if he's on the Bills he can't keep killing us!

 

Good article from Pro Football NYC (ok, not exactly a mainstream media outlet, but still):

Gotta like "Those who shrug off Smith’s imminent exit are only making themselves feel better when they say that Smith’s departure will be “no big loss.” It will be a tremendous loss. Smith changes momentum. Makes enormous game changing and even season changing plays. When least expected."
