Chiefs open to trading Smith per Ian Rapport!!

[Pooch]

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Chiefs are open to trading Alex Smith in the offseason.

The dots have connected to this ever since the Chiefs traded up for Patrick Mahomes in the first round of last April's draft. Smith has just one year left on his deal through 2018 with a $20.6 million cap hit, and the cap-strapped Chiefs can clear $17 million of that by shedding Smith. However, Smith is coming off arguably his best season as a pro and is still theoretically in the prime of his career at 33 years old. He could be the best quarterback on the market if Kirk Cousins sticks in D.C. RapSheet mentions the Browns, Cardinals, Broncos, Jets, Jaguars, and Bills as potential suitors for Smith, who could fetch the Chiefs multiple draft picks.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

And?

[Quesadilla Joe]

Cousins to the Browns
Smith to the Skins
Darnold to Denver.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Elway sucks ass, so that means Darnold sucks.

[Reerun_KC]

Do it!

[bigjosh]

Cousins to the Browns
Smith to the Skins
AIDS to Denver.

FYP

[TrebMaxx]

He's like Nostradamus.

[notorious]

Trade value is at it's max right now.

[Prison Bitch]

Cousins to the Browns
Smith to the Skins
Darnold to Denver.

5 straight losses to KC

Lulz

[Chiefshrink]

Elway sucks ass, so that means Darnold sucks.

Darnold will carry on the USC QBs that have sucked because they came out too early" since Palmer tradition. I agree.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Trade value is at it's max right now.

It'll be higher after he wins a SB...

[Reerun_KC]

Trade value is at it's max right now.



Exactly


He’s a good stop gap qb that can bring a down franchise back to middle of the road.

[DaFace]

It's bizarre to me that this is somehow news.

[Chiefshrink]

I highly doubt KC trades AS to Denver, and IF Andy did he would make sure he got his King's Ransom for sure. :hmmm:

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

It's bizarre to me that this is somehow news.

My thought exactly. If it had said "Chiefs actively looking for offers..." THAT would be news.

[Red Dawg]

This is not news and Smith is aware of this being his last season .

[Chiefshrink]

Browns/Dorsey are the likely spot because they have the "King's Ransom" in draft picks !!;) Just depends IF Dorsey can get over his getting bent over by Clark/Andy on his firing in order to do a deal.:shrug:

[Reerun_KC]

It's bizarre to me that this is somehow news.



Not really. It’s been pretty much common knowledge ever since the draft.

[Chiefshrink]

It's bizarre to me that this is somehow news.

It is a slow news day for Ian and the Chiefs ARE the first PO game today so....:rolleyes:

[RunKC]

Alex is gone next year unless he gets us to the SB.

Highest QBR, career year, $17 million off the books and high draft pick compensation.
One time only deal. Can’t turn that down.

[HemiEd]

It's bizarre to me that this is somehow news.

The timing is kind of suspect as well.

I'm trading him even if he wins the SB. You'll never be able to get the same return value as if that were to happen, and at that point he would have accomplished the ultimate goal anyways.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

They're applying pressure on Smith... which he has reacted to well so far this year.

[Reerun_KC]

True.

[SAUTO]

My thought exactly. If it had said "Chiefs actively looking for offers..." THAT would be news.

This report IS them actively looking for offers

[The Franchise]

I'm trading him even if he wins the SB. You'll never be able to get the same return value as if that were to happen, and at that point he would have accomplished the ultimate goal anyways.

This. Thanks for the trophy....now it’s time for the future.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

I think a report like this is leaked because they want Smith to play very aggressively. No regrets. Now or never.

[bigjosh]

Yup, If they dont trade him after this season, they get zero return (Maybe a 3rd round comp pick)

Sell High baby.

Dont get me wrong, if the dude wins this team a Championship, I will definitely change my tune about him. And Im sure he would get a spot up in the ROH one day, but I still dont see any possible way this team keeps him around next season.

[Urc Burry]

He also said don’t be surprised if we get more than we we have up for him (2 2nd’s))

[JakeF]

Water is wet, Denver sucks ass

[ptlyon]

He could be the best quarterback on the market if Kirk Cousins sticks in D.C.

Love this part

[TLO]

More Alex Smith discussion? SIGN ME UP! :clap: :clap:

Fuck Donk forever?

Got plenty of time to discuss this prior to the Alex Smith sucks that will ensue in 2 hours

[Rasputin]

I don't see this as news but more like "Well Duh"

I hate Kevin Keitzmann, but I do agree with one thing he said recently.

It would not surprise me one bit if Clark made the call to keep Alex next year if we win the SB...or even get there. He’s a loyal guy and would probably make arrangements to have Alex put in the ROF and even take over on radio after he retired if he so chooses.

[ptlyon]

What if we suddenly traded Smith to the Titans before the game?

[PAChiefsGuy]

What if we suddenly traded Smith to the Titans before the game?

Horrible attempt at a joke. Ever heard of a trade deadline? Fucking Idiot. Lol.

[ptlyon]

Well, fuck. There goes my hope for the playoffs.

IF we had plenty of picks in this year's draft and our defense had very few holes then I see why you come up with this theory. BUT that ain't the case and Veach needs picks pure and simple to fill our many holes on both sides of the ball for that matter.

[DaneMcCloud]

Cousins to the Browns
Smith to the Skins
Darnold to Denver.

Darnold's a perfect Elway QB.

Inconsistent and poor decision maker.

Perfect fit.

Maybe it's just me but I would consider him the best QB on the market even if Cousins comes out. From what I've seen I would prefer Alex over Kirk.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Chris Harris says on NFLN that Mahomes "looks like the real deal"

[chiefzilla1501]

Depends on what you want. Kirk cousins seems to me a good qb for a team that wants to be respectable. But a long shot to be a super bowl qb. Alex Smith is perfect for a team who wants to transition the team to a winner then hand off to a young qb who can take it from there.

[scho63]

My guess is Alex comes to the Arizona Cardinals and so could Nagy or Toub.

There is going to be MORE interest in Smith than we realize. We should get a great pick(s) in return.

[DaneMcCloud]

Tall enough?

Dane doesn't have to be tall.

Dinny

LMAO

Darnold is reportedly 6'4 but as we all know, those measurement usually can and do change.

[Rasputin]

My guess is Alex comes to the Arizona Cardinals and so could Nagy or Toub.

Ya that's my guess too. They seem to like old quarterbacks as they liked Carson Palmer so I think that is a good retirement condo for Alex Smith.

[scho63]

They have an excellent defense, weapons on offense, and Palmer is gone so Alex could fit right in.

[InChiefsHeaven]

The guys on NFLN seem mystified as to why the Chiefs would let go of Smith...all but Warner that is. I just kept thinking...you guys are not Chiefs fans...you have no idea what you are talking about...

Mooch also said Smith is going to throw 13 TD's here in the playoffs...

[Ming the Merciless]

From his lips to God's ears.

[Ming the Merciless]

From his lips to God's ears.

to alex's bunghole to Tiger's tongue-ring

[Bewbies]

to alex's bunghole to Tiger's tongue-ring

If Tiger's tongue ring could stimulate Smiff's anus to an extent he threw 13 playoff TD's I think the whole world would approve.

And it'd be the best experience Tiger's ever had. And Alex would see another $100M contract coming his way next year. (from a team who doesn't have a better player in waiting) :)

I find it funny that Ian Rapport finally knows that they are open to trading Smith while the rest of the NFL knew the instant that Mahomes was drafted.

[Sandy Vagina]

It's bizarre to me that this is somehow news.

agreed.. and it feels a bit classless to be posting news like this at this time. :shake:

[Bewbies]

The good news is your boy Smiff is on the field warming up to kick some ass, not sitting on the couch watching twitter like the rest of the AFCW.
