He's a perfect Reid QB in that he combines that with an above average arm and mobility when needed, but he's not Stafford or even Josh Freeman back there.
I don't see ASmith as being the noodle-arm some are claiming here. His arm strength is really pretty similar to Sam Bradford's. If you're going to use a Bell Curve for starting NFL quarterbacks, he's probably gets a C-. He doesn't have a cannon, but he's also not Ponder (in fact, I think his arm is probably better than Daltons, but Dalton gets to throw to AJ Green).

Yeah, he's definitely a qualified pro, no question about it... there simply isnt any excitement factor about him in most eyes.
The single most damning statement i've read on him, maybe ever, is yours...
"Alex Smith could make us the Houston Texans, for sure"
I dont want to top out at that, thats not the goal.
