Alex Smith to ask for release

[Fat Elvis]

People who don't want him as a FA are dumbasses. Seriously. I want us to draft a QB (Smith) with the #1 pick. When we do that, I want us to have some type of backup QB should Geno either get hurt or completely suck. The last thing I want is Cassel, Quinn and/or Stanzi waiting in the wings. Smith would be a quality backup QB, especially in a WCO style offense.

You think Smith is asking for his release to go be a backup somewhere else?

Smith wants out of his current (generous) deal because he's a backup all so he can sign with a different team and be a backup?

Hey, nobody said the guy was smart.
