Alex Smith has suffered concussions and also has had shoulder injury. I'm not saying he is going be removed right away with any big hits but he is a huge liability to last very long if he can make it through a season or two I will be surprised. I'm not even saying Alex Smith isn't tough mentally just saying he is weak physically and this contributes to why I'm not happy with this 2nd round trade and really be upset if we have to give up another 2nd round trade and not acquire a rookie draft pick next year.
Alex Smith is not young and has a worn arm and has taken some nasty hits. His window here is very short imo.

I am not happy with the trade, but I think you, and many others, completely lack any objectivity.
I think you make far too much of his injury history, and fail to recognize that his efficiency makes him a major upgrade to the shit we did have.
As long as Reid doesn't try to round peg him into a square hole, he'll be productive.
I recognize, however, that better than bad does not equal good.
He's the very epitome of JAG.
