I would agree, I don't think he'd come here if we were going to draft a QB at 1. But if he was interested in the idea of coming here despite that, I'd be interested. He's a 28 year old former #1 overall pick. He does have raw talent. But I wouldn't trade picks for him or not draft a QB because of him.
It's unbelievable to me that the same board that one year ago was pining for Kyle flipping Orton thinks Alex Smith is beneath them though. That's crazy. |

And we knew Matt Cassel was coming back so of course we would've rather have had Orton than him. Signing Alex Smith would most likely mean we are giving him the starting job like mentioned, meaning we most likely won't draft a QB #1 overall and if we do draft a QB in the 2nd or 3rd, they won't start either. Meaning Alex Smith is our starting QB for a few years. Yay. Not. Same thing this franchise has always done. Was Smith better under Harbaugh? Sure. Was he a franchise type QB? Of course not. He got benched for a 2nd round pick that never played a down in the NFL yet and he's now about to be released. Franchise QBs don't get released or traded. But its okay for the Chiefs to sign him up and start him because that's what we've always done and it's always worked out for us right? Just no to Alex Smith. Unless of course he accepts backing up our draft pick, but he won't.

Kyle Orton is cheap and has a strong arm. Alex Smith is expensive with a noodle arm.

Kyle Orton is great between the 20s but not when it counts or under pressure. |

I said clear as day twice that I wouldn't trade picks for the guy or not draft a QB at #1 because of him... but if he was willing to come here in spite of that and risk being a backup, I would consider it, yes. The QB position on this team is an utter disaster and the rest of you are acting like Scott ***** by picking one guy and sticking to it. Dorsey should be doing everything in his power to improve all three spots at the position. That's what I was pointing out, I like picking out irony. A 28 year old former #1 pick isn't good enough for us because we have the #1 pick, so nothing can go wrong for us now. If you can't pick out the irony in that statement I can't help you. The other part is pointing out he wasn't good enough for Harbaugh. And you know why he wasn't good enough for Harbaugh? Because he doesn't play the *****-ego game and continues to improve every position regardless of who was picked when, and then plays the best players. Alex Smith will not get 5 more years with any team to prove himself. But if you're asking me if I'd rather have him than Matt Cassel as the backup, then I would say yes. |
