If I'm a GM trying to build the best team I can, I have no problem giving Alex Smith a try for a 4th rounder and letting him compete to be the starter. If Geno can't beat him out, then we at least have a guy. I don't want to go the Geno route without some capable backup that can win games. I'd be fine with Jason Campbell as well, but haven't heard his name tossed around at all.

The only problem with your scenario is that it just isn't based in reality.
If they draft a QB #1 overall, he's going to be starting no later than mid-season.
Which means you wasted a draft pick on a guy that's going to be asking for his release 12 months from now.
That's a complete waste.
The reason you haven't heard Campbell's name yet is because he's going to be a free agent and free agency hasn't started.
