That isn't good business sense. Why would Alex Smith, sign up long term right now? I know I wouldn't. he had no say in where he was going. In two years, if it isn't working out for him, he can go where he chooses, or sign what will probably be his last contract, maximizing his value.
Its smart all the way around.
