No. I don't care about ANY retreads under ANY circumstances. Draft a guy, or bust! |

I'd resign Alex, but not for those years, or that money. I'll detail what I would do, below. |

Gaz would do this, but only if he could go both ways and play defense. |

Would you resign Alex Smith to Matt Cassel like money right now, today?
Just like it says. Would you give Alex a 5-6 year deal for somewhere between $50-$65 million to keep him as our franchise QB right now, today?
As hard as this place has been on him, I'm curious where we're at after watching him progress through the season, and play IMO, his best game ever last Saturday. |

He wouldn't take that deal. I would love that deal.

Why do you say that? I've always thought of Alex as a team player, that would take a few less bucks to help field a competitive team cap wise. Curious if you know something I don't.

Too late in his career for that many years. He's got about 2-3 solid seasons left, you start the search now for someone to bring along behind him.
His game is going to decline as he ages. That taking off and running, absorbing hits like he does, that doesn't help your longevity in this league. His mobility is a huge part of his game, and he's already lost his job to injury once. 2-3 year extension, begin looking for someone to groom behind him now.

29 and mediocre/injured his entire career.
He's not elite. You don't give someone like Alex 5-6 year extensions at this stage in their career. 3 years max. That gives him the next 4 years to put up or shut up and plenty of time for the Chiefs to have 2 young guns duking it out to come in and be the guy, cut Daniel tomorrow. |

This. I think his play was encouraging enough to stick around a few more years and to see what he can do with another playmaker or two. The reality is he only won one game vs a playoff team and it was in September, but they were at least competitive.

hes a team player but a 5-6 year contract puts him mid 30's. Most he gets after that is a 3 year deal like brady. (not brady money id assume tho) so hes gonna want to get the most of this next contract imo.
