@ALLsportsINTEL reporting Sean Smith to KC! Is this his agent?

The Geno Butt hurt is strong.

Right now that looks like a long shot, but we'll see.

They over paid.

Why would they take anyone in the 2nd or 3rd after shelling out that cash for Chase Daniel?

When have the Chiefs ever been consistently mediocre? Mediocre is 8-8, right? When have the Chiefs put up consecutive 8-8 seasons?

I agree. I've advocated for a first round QB since the days on the KC Star Forum. I wanted Brees, I wanted them to choose someone before Green's inevitable fall, I wanted Sanchez or Clausen or anyone that wouldn't be Matt Cassel.

I agree, there is some amount of risk involved by trading for Alex Smith. But knowing that the fans that purchase the tickets and jerseys and pay for parking, etc. are fed up with the pure shit that Pioli (and Herm before him) have been trotting on the field for the better part of six seasons, they've chosen to put a respectable team on the field in 2013.

Personally, I don't believe that means the Chiefs will continue to pass on first round or second QB's, at all. I just think it means that they don't want to further test fan's patience by telling them "Hey, we're going with a rookie QB this year. Hang on for the ride. Thanks for another 2-3 years of your patience".

I just don't think that was going to fly. And I truly believe that the Hunt Family were tired of the perception of their franchise in league circles.

He's going to set franchise records?

Because all of those guys have,

We dont owe Cassell anything. All of his guaranteed money has been paid for.

Catching up: CB Sean Smith's deal with KC included $12m in guarantees, not $11m. So there.

His signing bonus is still costing us dead money.

Apparently, he's really on a one year deal. They can cut him after this season without any cap implications.

The point remains, he's here now. Why spend a 2nd or 3rd on another QB?
