Graeme Smith (born June 8, 1983, in Edinburgh) is a Scottish professional footballer currently playing as goalkeeper for Motherwell.

Smith started his career with Rangers, and has also played for Ross County (on loan). On August 24, 2006, he was included in the Scotland squad due to face the Faroe Islands and Lithuania as part of the 2008 European Championship qualifiers.

Smith should not be confused with his namesake, also a Scottish goalkeeper, currently playing for Rangers.

Smith is most commonly known by fans and fellow players by his nickname "Buzz", earned in his formative years owing to an alleged likeness to the cartoon character Buzz Lightyear from the film Toy Story.
