Alex Smith will be the backup, one of the others will be the starter after he fails during the first part of the season.

Smith.

Geno Smith

Daniels has NFL experience, while Bray is considered an athletic project. It's kind of obvious Chase will be the backup this season and likely next year.

Hmmmm...

Daniel will be around at the end of the year, but soon after the year turns over hopefully its Bray.

Daniel is virtually on a 1 year contract, is he not?

The way Daniels contract is structured, he'll be here a minimum of two seasons. it's a 3 year $10 million contract with a $3 million bonus. Base salaries are $800K, $2.4 million, and $3.8 million. $4.8 million guaranteed (signing bonus + 2013 base + $1M of 2014 base). It would cost the Chiefs $600K to cut Daniels after year 1 and have a $2.8 million savings after year 2. Deal can void after any season in which he passes for 2,000 yards and 12 touchdowns, which isn't likely.

That's the real question, IMO. How many games will AS start before injury or other?

We didn't pay Chase to be inactive Sundays. Unless he completely sucks, he's it.

I would be shocked if Bray makes the team at this point...

You would be shocked that he made the team?

They poached him from the Dolphins by offering him more money and he's competing against Stanzi and Tanney.

He's still an UDFA. It's not like he's a first round pick. What if Stanzi outplays him? He's already sat for two years learning the NFL game. I don't know if that's completely unrealistic.

Did you not watch the preseason last year?

All Stanzi has learned is that he's not going to be in the league much longer and needs to start saving up his money by avoiding the barber.

On the worst team in the league, with the worst coaching staff in the league?

So tell me... What do you think he learned from the worst coaching staff in the league?

Bray =/= Stanzi

Now I do feel like he is probably a better prospect than Stanzi, but reality is, he isnt going to dress for gameday unless there is an injury. So in essence, he MAY be the backup QB by the end of the season by default.

I don't know what this is supposed to mean. I thought Cassel outplayed Stanzi in the preseason... I've never been one of the Stanzi nuts. I think that was clear. But I think he has talent though, I never wanted to give up on him.

That said, Bray once went 5-30 passing in a spring game. There's absolutely the possibility Stanzi outplays him in the preseason.
