[h1]Ravens notified of trade request by Troy Smith[/h1]
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on December 28, 2009 2:09 PM ET
Ravens quarterback Troy Smith seems like a thoughtful, talented young player that could have a long career in the NFL. But he could work on his timing.
Earlier this month, Smith gained attention for his dance steps after his touchdown gave the Ravens a 48-3 lead over Detroit.
Now his agent Ralph Cindrich is making it known through his Twitter account that Smith has notified the Ravens that he wants a trade, just six days before the Ravens try to clinch a playoff spot.
"Ravens QB Troy Smith, Ohio State alum, native + Heisman winner wants playing time. Ravens notified. Will seek trade after play offs, SB run," Cindrich writes.
Smith has shown promise when given the chance to play and was likely to open the 2008 as the Ravens starter over Joe Flacco if not for being sidelined by a rare form of tonsillitis.
It's unclear what kind of market Smith would generate and if the Ravens would be motivated to trade a backup quarterback they trust.

i've liked Troy since OSU, and i would like to see him go somewhere else and succeed because he's a talented player. but this is just terrible timingTroy. come on man, your team is in the middle of a playoff push.
and he has no trade value.. how many teams have really seen him play?
