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. |

As far as Romo and Cutler, watching other teams make that kind of mistake doesn't mean the Chiefs should do the same. If Smith actually wins something, then sure, lock him up and write a blank check.

That's a really good point. That deal is over 5 years old. I'd like to think Alex is team player enough to do it, but I wouldn't blame him a bit if he wasn't. These guys are out to get what they can, while they can.

What has Stafford done to earn that coin? Matt Ryan ? Cutler ? Romo ? Even Matt Schaub got 4 y 62m. It's the going rate and Alex will get a 80 to 100m deal from someone.

I think the Chiefs and Smith will come to a deal that works for both sides. Smith knows that he doesn't want to go out there and do this all again. The Chiefs know that they don't want to go into next season with a question mark at QB.

The cost of living is the only angle they got. He can probably get a mansion in Kansas for the price of a condo in San Fran LOL

Would like to think this team is at least smart enough to not cripple themselves like the Ravens or Bears for someone like Alex Smith. |

I'm no expert on how these things wok against the cap, but I know the years don't actually mean much and these guys can be cut basically anytime. But at 29 years old, 5 years for a QB isn't that long. He could still be good at 34. Basically, he's not a superstar and people will be against re-signing for that reason. But you gotta play someone until you find the superstar.

The fact that the Chiefs refuse to draft a high round QB makes extending him a lot more palatable. In my mind, it's either extend Smith, or find a new retread in a few seasons - I'll take Smith, given those options. The "draft a QB" guys are pissing into the wind - history shows it's not going to happen, even though that would be my personal preference.
So, by that logic, I say extend him. |

He wont be taking any thing short of 5 years. I bet he lets KC get things in order Cap wise before signing anything.
Seems like he wants to do one thing and it is prove SF ****ed up. So that means building a team and winning. No way he asks for Cutler money, he wants to win too much. |
