If Alex Smith becomes a free agent, we should absolutely sign him.
Trading picks for him... eh. We have way too many holes to trade picks unless it's bringing in more picks.
He would be a fine veteran starter. He played well for SF down the stretch last year and for a chunk of this year.
Someone compared him to Trent Green. Is that a bad thing? Green - who by the way had a powerful offensive line with a franchise left tackle - was the best QB this team's had since before most of you were born.
We sign Smith, then in the draft we take BPA at #1 and get two QBs later in the draft, preferably higher in the rest of the draft.
That's the highest tide we could bring in in terms of talent, IMO.
