The Facts:
Former Ohio State quarterback Smith was one of four rookies the Baltimore Ravens signed to three-year contracts Tuesday. The defending AFC North champions also signed University of Maryland offensive tackle Jared Gaither, who was a fifth-round supplemental pick. Yamon Figurs was also signed as a wide receiver and return specialist, and linebacker Prescott Burgess was also signed, the team said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Kyle Boller appears to be locked in as Steve McNair's backup this year, but don't assume Boller is the team's QB of the future. If Smith can impress coaches this year, he's the likely front-runner for the No. 2 role in 2008.
