There were other teams interested. If he was cut we would have had to compete with them. By trading we assured we got him. You can argue that he is a bad choice (although it is way too early to know that), but if Andy Reid thinks he is the best QB available (and he apparently does) then trading instead of waiting for his release makes a lot of sense.

We had one advantage over those other teams... the #1 pick.

You know what you get with Smith. Mediocre, not good enough to win a SB, QB play. Any of the QBs in this class bring hope that they can be more than that and if they dont who cares? You aren't missing out on anything. You just come back 3-4 years later and take a chance on another college QB.

8 years of mediocre play pretty much insures that it was a bad choice.

Why not wait and see if a lifelong 20 handicap beats Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, etc at the Masters in a few weeks?

I mean, expecting the same results without waiting to see isn't very smart. Or so I've been told.
