As for the concussions and sacks, those legitimate concerns.
However, those concerns should be alleviated to some extent by Reid's offensive philosophy, which is predicated on getting the ball out quickly.
I would not be the least bit surprisexd to see Smith play the full 16 game schedule, and to see him exceed all of his previous season numbers in yards and TTs.
My concern is that he is not a guy that can lead his team to a SB.
At some point the QB has to make plays againsr superior defenseszin the playoffs,and I don't see a guy with the confidence to make those plays in Alex Smith, and at the end of the day, that confidence is what separates Alex Smith from the Eli Mannings and Joe Flaccos of the world.
I just don't believe you give up 2 high draft picks, whether it's a 2 and a 3 or 2 2nds, for that guy.
