While I don't want Smith to be our only option as a starting QB, I won't cry if he's brought here to be a backup, nor will I attempt to undermine him based on statistics that don't really paint a true picture of the player.

Most people wouldn't have a problem with him coming here as a backup or a 24-month stop gap.
The problem is that those scenarios just aren't realistic.
A more likely scenario is the one HotCarl suggested - he comes in like Trent Green and starts for 5 or 6 years.
I love Trent but goddammit I am tired of other people's trash lining up at QB for the Chiefs.
