The danger is, Alex smith WILL win some games, but he won't take you to the promised land. TAKE GENO...groom him, and stop worrying about a ****ing QB for the next 3 years, maybe longer depending on how he works out. The first pick doesn't cost what it used to.
WHAT IS THE RISK?

The Packers had a future Hall of Fame QB running the show and Aaron Rodgers sat through an epic fall on draft day so it was pretty easy to sell the Green Bay fanbase (and probably Rodgers himself) on the idea that Rodgers should sit as an understudy for a few years. From a PR and QB controversy perspective, this would be a completely different situation, fwiw.
