If the Chiefs go 8-8 or better 49ers get a 2nd round pick.
A third- or second-rounder from Kansas City, the remnant of the Alex Smith deal. Now it can be told: The second draft choice San Francisco will receive from the Smith deal will be K.C.'s second-rounder in 2014 if the Chiefs go 8-8 or better this season. It will be a third-rounder in 2014 if Kansas City is under .500 this season.
So: San Francisco will probably have first-, second- and four third-rounders next year. But if the Chiefs surprise, it'll more likely be a one, two twos and three threes. As we've seen, GM Trent Baalke is dangerous with extra picks in his hands. If Colin Kaepernick is very good, the Niners should be annual contenders for years with the picks laid out that way.

He had 27 starts before signing with the Chiefs. Smith has 80.
Try again. FTR. I would have rather have taken a shot at a guy like that. A backup in the league that maybe didn't really get a chance to prove himself for as long as Alex did. A Rich Gannon, a Jake Delhomme, a Matt Schaub, a Brett Favre, a Trent Green type of guy. |

So, they were shitty all year then. Sounds like they were conservative in their 3rd down play calling to me.

Given your argument, I assume you don't think we know who these guys are yet: Ryan Leaf - 21 starts JaMarcus Russell - 25 starts Akili Smith - 17 starts

Jim actually conformed a bit to the Mike Singletary approach of running a heavy-set formation to WILL our way on the ground to the first down. It failed a lot last season... failed a lot the last few seasons. All we managed to do was add those big bodies to clog up our own RBs. On passing downs when we would get penalized and end up in 3rd and 20, we would send the TEs and WRs on clear-outs... throw to the RB over the middle... pick up 10-15 yards... and send in our stud punter to play the field position game. That's just how we rolled... because we figured Lee would boom the punt for great yardage and then our D would force them to punt it back. |

I'm not sure how you are forming that opinion. I think it does take some guys more starts to get it than others. For example Elway avgs a 67 QB rating his first 3 seasons. |

Your forgetting the 36 starts Young had In the USFL. SO thats 55 games of the so called "Body of Work". All these guys had chances to prove themselves, they turned out to be late bloomers. Trent Green was around for 7 freaking seasons to prove himself until he got a shot with KC. Sometimes guys just get better and finally get in the right situation. I dont know how its gonna work out for SMith, my god KC was 2-14 last year. Would it have been better for SMith to sit for 2 seasons? Absolutely yes, he was not ready to play and SF threw him out there and everyone an their brother knew he was doomed to fail. It just doesnt always work that way when a franchise is struggling. They sent him out there hoping for the best knowing full well they were a terrible terrible franchise at the time. |

Then again, I do not like the chances of Alex Smith, if andy reid doesnt adapt away from his im gonna throw it every chance i get style. He has to utilize JC, and the run game to set up the pass, or you will be a 6-10 team.

8 years. 8 years. 8 years. When the best of the best, Drew Brees, and Aaron Rodgers, publicly state how they are surprised that Alex Smith was able to survive through all the bullshit he and the 49er players went through, before Jim Harbaugh, Jed York, and Trent Baalke took over, and to even become successful at ALL, and make it through, when players like David Carr, Jamarcus Russell, Tim Couch, Joey Harrington couldnt, and then myopic fans, now, understand this, i consider you to be one of the more intelligent fans here, but this view, is MYOPIC. Jim Harbaugh, in college, had the BEST QB IN THE COUNTRY, yet he still ran the ball, 58 percent of the time. Troy Aikman, a hall of fame qb, handed the ball off 55 percent of the time. Joe Flacco, only threw for 3800 yards last year. And won the super bowl. This style, of the running game, defense and passing game, has won the PAST TWO SUPER BOWLS. The two teams in the super bowl, ran the ball more than they threw it. Why people are so offended by this style, is beyond me. Its winning. And its going to keep winning. The most complete teams are winning, something the chiefs if people will stop focusing on the two picks that were given up, and just look at this chiefs team compared to last year, is a far more COMPLETE TEAM, and thats not even counting alex smith. That is counting guys like Donnie Avery, Anthony Fasano, Travis Kelce, Retaining albert, resigning bowe, kniles davis (didnt understand the pick, but hes a talent) Sean Smith, Dunta Robinson, Mike DiVito, Niko Johnson, and the coaching staff. this is a complete football team and all of that, and i didnt even mention Schwartz, or the first overrall pick in the draft. There is a lot to be happy about with this team.
