Bullshit, he'd finally been under the same system for more than a year and finally had a well rounded team at his command.

The Niners were a JOKE when they drafted him and were for years afterward, lesser players wouldn't have even been around for the renaissance... and, I also believe him to be a classic late bloomer, even his college coach has said as much, he takes a bit to take full command of an offense but when he does its solid.

Anyway, I don't give a damn what anyone else thinks, I'll take Smith over Kap any day and its all based on what I believe about football and not because Smith has an arrowhead on his helmet.

Can't wait for this clown to get owned by Sherman again....duuuuurrrrr I keep challenge him

That offense is basically tailor made for Kaep and his skillset. Hence, to the 9ers, he's worth that much as they know what he can and can't do and have surrounded him with things that will make him successful.

So, no, he's not really overpaid. Overpaid to me as a Chiefs fan? Sure, I dont' know that he would be as successful in Reid's offense.

Overpaid in that offense and system? Nah.

God imagine how much manziel will get...

Unlike Kaepernick, Smith didn't have the luxury of being drafted to a loaded team.

I think he's got huge upside. He willed the 49'ers back in that SB. He made plays up and down the field and I think has he develops and gets more experience that offense will open up as well...

I don't know about that. But, the market is set so I'm not sure what else people expect these teams to do.

LMAO.

If he goes to a Superbowl and AFC championship in his first two years of starting, he will be paid accordingly

If JMF takes the Browns to the Super Bowl he will own the city of Cleveland.

Ugh...yet another expansion team to go to a SB since the last time the Chiefs won a playoff game...:facepalm:

at this point, 5 years/$80Mil would be a fair deal for Alex

And Colin is worth every penny of it. Better to sign him now before he becomes an elite top 5 QB, than pay him more later. By year 6 people will be saying he is a bargain. :p

The best part of this is the 6 year duration. The team salary cap is soaring and top QBs signing 2 or 3 years from now will be demanding $22- $25 million per year. Better to get Colin locked up at $18.5 then do a 4 year deal where he demands $24 million per year 5 years from now.

I am LOVING the 6 year duration.

He will probably get something similar if not more than Kap's $18.5 million per year.

Kap is Steve Young v.2.01. I am freaking thrilled to be a 49ers fan and thrilled to be watching the ascension of the next 2 elite QBs in the NFL with Andrew Luck and Colin Kaepernick.
