The 49ers have expressed to others that a deal for QB Alex Smith is effectively complete. Can't be finalized til league year begins 3/12

so it's not official, both clubs view it at as it's effectively done. I do not know the other team. KC and JAX are 2 teams that make sense

Chiefs Believed To Be Team That Acquired Alex Smith
February 24th, 2013 · No Comments


Kansas City Chiefs have agreed in principle to acquire 49ers QB Alex Smith as I have been reporting all week.

So we agreed in principle to A Smith before the QB workout/interviews at the combine. Yep, sounds very KC.

People Alex Smith is coming and we aren't likely drafting Geno. QB in the 2nd? Sure that is very likely but it will be someone to be groomed under Alex.

They work for the Chiefs. Mediocrity is the goal, not greatness.

I guess they think Gino will be a bust. They want to go the "safe" route.

If Reid thinks Alex Smith is a better qb than Geno than GTFO. However drafting a younger guy to be the face of your franchise would cost you 5 million dollars less and be a lot younger than Alex Smith. Unless they plan on using him as a 1 year rental and try to trade up next year to get a Murray bridgewater or manziel. This doesn't seem like something Reid or Dorsey would do. After this week we know Joeckel and Warmack are the BPA. It's Geno.

This story is really strange.

Cool. So Clark wants to completely rehash the last four years. Let's just bring Hitler back to life and rehash World War II while we're at it.

VERY KC.

And we were told to trust these guys.

What will we have to give for him ? Surely not #1, a #7 I could see

I could see a 4th. No more.

[OrtonsPiercedTaint]

The Chiefs trade a 4th for Alex Smith eat his cap hit and trade him to the cap strapped Eagles for Foles.... reaching...anything

[penbrook]

Are not the BPA

I think you are right. But, is having Alex start for a year while Geno gets ready to dominate the NFL the worst thing in the world?

[htismaqe]

I hope it's 1-1.
