49ers have completed a trade with the Chiefs for Alex Smith, tho can't be official til March 12. Chiefs really made a commitment to Smith


Jay Glazer @JayGlazer
Deal has been agreed upon between Chiefs and 49ers. Compensation unclear but I'm told again Chiefs have made a clear commitment to Smith.

Even I'm depressed and livid. Is this real?

MOTHER****ER!

Alex Smith is Dorsey's "original sin." We're getting ass raped in a trade for another team's shitty QB. The next 4 or 5 years will be a complete waste, and we'll be right back where we are today, the worst team in the league, still looking for a QB.

I swear, this team never learns from its mistakes. This is our best chance in 30 freaking years to draft a 1st round franchise QB, and we trade for Matt Cassel 2.0.

This means we're drafting a LT with our #1 pick. True fans rejoice.

****!

If that is what they're giving up, they definately intend on having Smith start.

Well, how many are now going to switch to being the other kind of football fan?

[ForeverChiefs58]

SF now owns picks at No. 31, 34, and 61 and a total of 15 picks in the draft with a lot of depth

God I hate this ****ing franchise

Not as bad. Still sucks.

Well..... can live with that.

[mr. tegu]

So which high school senior QBs can we start scouting?

[kcxiv]

I'm seriously thinking about not being a fan anymore. It's like whoever runs the team is trying to suck on purpose.

I hoped if somebody else (Dorsey) was drafting players we'd be alright.
The hype on Reid identifying QB talent is hot air. Personally I think McNabb was overrated but regardless even to the extent of success he had he was the 2nd overall pick for cripes sake. Kolb is garbage. Vick is the most overrated player in the league and can't read a picture book. Other picks: Mike Kafka, Andy Hall, AJ Feely, all trash.

And now this poop sandwich paid a kings ransom for

Very frustrating

That's actually quite a bit different, if true.

But i highly doubt it's true.

Why? Our ability to trade back just quadrupled.

Alex Smith took my Niners to 1 muffed punt away from last year's Super Bowl.
He was on his way to taking them there again when he got hurt and Kaep came in and, well, you all know the story.

Alex Smith can play the game. His problem before Harbaugh came on board was he didn't have the supporting cast around him, coaching was terrible, and the offensive corrdinators were coming through revolving doors. Once he grasped Harbuagh's system, he really began to shine.

He can throw the ball with accuracy, he can be mobile (Not like Kaep though), and he won't hurt you with mistakes. *He threw 5 interceptions all last year.*
When he lost his job this year, he has the NFL's highest completion percentage and a 104 QB rating.
He's also a major Class Act. Just look at how he handled his demotion.

I have one question...How strong is your Offensive Line? If they can give him time in the pocket and open holes for your running game, your QB position will be taken care of for a number of years to come.

I'll leave it at this: Give him a chance. Don't judge him now. Judge him after 4 or 5 games. I think you will like what you see. I really do.

Good Luck to you all and Alex in KC.

Uhhh... They benched Smith and made it to the Superbowl. They couldn't get there with him because he sucks.

[SteelEER]

As a WVU fan...I'm sorry he isn't going to KC. They have all the parts except QB. Alex Smith is serviceable QB. That worked for the Ravens in 2000.

This ain't 2000.

Giving up 2 second round picks for Alex Smith is absurd. That is literally the worst trade since Ditka gave up the entire Saints draft to get Ricky Williams

Report: Chiefs giving up a 2013 second and change for Alex Smith


The Chiefs apparently have their quarterback now, but they paid a handsome price for him.

According to Tim Kawakami of the San Jose Mercury News, the 49ers will get a second-round pick this year and “a similar pick in the 2014 draft” in exchange for quarterback Alex Smith.

That’s a haul for the 49ers, who have more draft picks than will ever make their roster this year (which could put them in prime position to make a run at disgruntled Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis).

Paying that kind of price also speaks to the Chiefs figuring out a deal to extend Smith, since that kind of price for two years seems excessive.

They were like one play away from getting there WITH him.
