Tulsa quarterback Zach Smith is expected to try out with the Bills in advance of the upcoming rookie minicamp, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Media. Smith could serve as an extra arm during the camp.

Smith, listed at 6-3 and 227 pounds, started all nine games last fall and threw for 1,947 yards and 13 touchdowns, completing 56% of his passes. He also led Tulsa to three comeback victories.

A college QB with a 56% completion percentage cannot possible succeed in the NFL. #inaccurate

Looks like a camp body.  I'm not sure why he'd be needed if they keep Fromm and Webb.  But, there's no harm in taking a look.  I also think that Allen is the exception to the rule as to completion percentage.  In most cases, it is a pretty good predictor.  Allen is a unique individual who was able to overcome the odds with his supreme athletic talent, work ethic, etc., but guys like him don't come along very often.  I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Zach Smith is not going to replicate what Josh Allen did.

Beyond that, the Bills have MT to backup Josh.  He should be trying out for other teams.

Somebody needs to throw the ball during rookie minicamp.

Does it actually have to be a rookie?

I don’t think it can be a vet.  Wouldn’t make much sense why a vet QB could practice but other unable to

Good luck, Zach.  Is there any reason for the Bills to switch him for one of the four current QBs?  Yeah, if you can fleece the Packers by unloading Fromm. . .

I hear his hurdling skill is not great.

I would assume so but I’m not totally sure

I thought so as well and then one year I recall there being a non-rookie QB at one of them.  But if it has to be a rookie, this makes a lot more sense.

Like @Bangarang, I don’t know for sure....I’m sure assuming based on the language
