Alex Smith to ask for release
http://tracking.si.com/2013/01/28/al...?sct=obnetwork
If no draft picks are involved, does that change your opinion on bringing him in? Draft pick, Smith, Stanzi(?) as your QB's in camp. |

I can't believe there are people advocating for Alex Smith. This guy was about to get booted from the Nfl as a bust. Smh

Im personally getting mentally prepared for us getting Smith via trade because we need a serviceable guy to be our QB and mentor for rookie QB coming. Whether he starts or not I dont know, neither do you. BTW, I love how everyone points out the way past instead of what is currently going on. What have you done for me lately doenst apply in this case apparently.

Htismage, let me change the direction of this a bit. Say Jason Campbell comes in here as a free agent and the chiefs still draft Geno to start. Like I said, I'd be thrilled with this possibility. What happens if Geno just isn't THE guy?

In the middle rounds. Basically, you're banking your season (or 2 or 3) on Alex Smith. The guy you drafted is a roll of the dice. I want my veteran backup to be the contingency plan to my drafted QB. If you bring Alex Smith, your contingency plan is the drafted QB. |

I am all for having a legit QB competition. If ran correctly, it won't set the team back... and probablly make the team better. The last four seasons have shown us what happens when someone is handed the keys with no threat to his job. |

People want to bring Alex Smith in here to "mentor" a draft pick and ultimately be a backup? Well guess what? Recent NFL history suggests that's a complete fantasy. Recent Chiefs history is even more definitive. If they bring in Smith, he WILL start. Bank on it. |

If you want a legit QB competition, you don't want Alex Smith. The NFL is conservative by nature. The former starter is ALWAYS going to win an "open competition". |

Chiefs: "Hey Alex, would you like to come here and compete with the #1 overall draft pick for a starting job?"
Alex: "No" |
