Alex Smith to ask for release

While Smith could start for 20 teams or more in this league, he's not going to get many offers to come in and start. In part, due to the harbaugh, and to the number of young guns in this league already. Teams aren't going to turn their back on a young guy who has shown some promise, unless he's a Blaine Gabbert ( a guy I called a bust long before draft day ).

Your post is a major contradiction.

When Smith is released, The NY Jets, Bills and Jaguars will most definitely be interested. Teams like the Chiefs and Titans will likely be interested. It wouldn't be a shock to see the Eagles and even the Vikings interested.

With Smith, Peterson, Harvin and Rudolph, the Vikings would be dangerous.

My post wasn't a contradiction, your argument contradicts your standpoint by pointing out that my statement was right.

You just named off 7/32 teams in the NFL. That isn't many, now is it?

How many starting QB jobs are available each year, Genious?

My god, you are so stupid. Even if there are 13 positions available for starting QB in this league this year, which never happens, he's going to get 3, maybe 4 offers. "interest" is one thing, I could make 32 teams seem as if they have "interest" on twitter. I'm talking fly in, sit down, have lunch, discuss the game, type of interest.

He's going to get very few, here's why. The Niners aren't stupid, they're going to push hard to get a draft pick out of Smith, even if its a 5th, 6th, or 7th rounder. They have a month and a half to do this, they won't just cut him until the last second possible. It works for a PR standpoint as the team "looks" like they are helping him find a home, in reality, they are being greedy with their former first round guy. Nextly, everyone and their mother is going to believe that Harbaugh had a lot more to do with Smith's success than Smith did. Teams don't want to have a guy come in who was ONLY successful under a QB guy like Harbaugh, they want to see someone who could win games regardless of who was the HC or OC, Smith couldn't do that. Because of this, teams are going to have their staff in place before they go after a QB and there's going to be a long, lengthy courtship behind the process. Some teams who are on the fence with this will knowingly pass him up because they know this is going to be quite the process unless they go in guns blazing.

So, while we might hear about 17 teams having interest, we'll only hear about 2-3 teams actually taking a shot with him.

Kind of reminiscent of Kansas City and Andy Reid this off season. Tons of vacancies and a ton of "interest" out there, but when it came down to it, there were two teams in the race and we went in guns blazing.

If smith were smart, he'd consider taking a backup role on a team that is going to take a rookie in the first round, he's chance to "come back" is going to be greater there than anywhere else (aside from the 3 or 4 starting positions he might actually get offered).

Care to explain why? Or do you not like the fact that I disagree with your "expert" statements and dice them up with real, tangible logic?

It's already BEEN explained, BlackBob:

If Smith stays with the 49ers, he's paid $8.5 million dollars. They need to lock up Goldson, amongst other players, so they're not going to pay Smith 8% of their cap to be a backup.

When he hits the market, an eight year veteran with excellent leadership skills will be sought after. Whether it's Buffalo, NY Jets, Tennessee, KC, Philly, Arizona, etc., he will choose where he lands.



You mother****ing dumbass. I'm absolutely SICK of explaining shit to dummies like you.
