(AP) -- Brad Smith's coming to Buffalo, and the wildcat can't be far behind after the multitalented offensive player agreed to a four-year contract worth about $15 million with the Bills.


Smith's agent Mark Bartelstein confirmed his client's agreement and the terms of the contract Thursday.


Smith's versatility as a receiver, rusher and ability to take snaps out of the quarterback spot in wildcat formations complements Bills coach Chan Gailey's wide-open offensive philosophy.

A four-year NFL player, Smith also has vast special teams experience as a punt-returner and on coverage units.


In an e-mail to The Associated Press, Smith, a former New York Jet, wrote that he's very glad to be joining the Bills and is excited for the opportunity to play for Gailey.
