The Alex Smith to #Chiefs trade is now official. 49ers get 2nd round pick plus conditional 2014 pick. Chiefs get starting QB



The San Francisco 49ers have agreed to a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs. The 49ers will acquire an undisclosed 2013 draft choice, and a conditional pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, in return for sending QB Alex Smith to the Chiefs. Smith must pass a physical in Kansas City for the trade to be executed.

“We would like to thank Alex for his contributions to the 49ers organization over the past eight years,” said 49ers General Manager Trent Baalke. “He is a true professional who represented the 49ers with class on and off the field.”

Originally the first overall draft pick in the 2005 NFL Draft by San Francisco, Smith spent eight seasons in the red and gold. During his tenure with the 49ers, he started 75 of the 80 games in which he played, completing 1,290 of 2,177 pass attempts (59.3%) for 14,280 yards and 81 TDs.

In 2012, Smith was 6-2-1 as a starter, completing 153 of 218 pass attempts (70.2%) for 1,737 yards with 13 TDs and 5 INTs, and a QB rating of 104.1. In 2011, Smith led the 49ers to their first NFC West title and postseason berth since 2002. He threw for a career-high 3,144 yards on 273 of 445 pass attempts with 17 TDs, 5 INTs and a 90.7 QB rating.

Born in Seattle, WA, Smith attended Helix High School in LaMesa, CA. At the University of Utah, Smith boasted a 21-1 record as a starter and became the first player in school history to be named a finalist for the Heisman Trophy.

*shoots self in head*

Does duct tape come in Chiefs' red?

Next up: Cassell traded.

Say hello to the new boss....

Nothing else coming back this way? I guess I was hoping for SF's 2nd rounder.

Starting to think that Reid and Dorsey don't "get it."

woo hoo

yaaay

Not really.

Ryan Fitzpatrick hitting the market totally diluted the market for Cassel.

We'll have to release him, now.

Congrats guys!

Any confirmation on the terms of the trade? Draft picks, etc?

:( all the shit for nothing! This franchise doesnt ****ing learn. one of the worst franchises of the last 40 years for a reason.

**** you, Buffalo

Yeah, I was going to add an EDIT: Or Cut.

This :banghead:

Alex ****ing Smith. Embarrassing.

This must be like Christmas for you guys. You finally got your QB!

Didn't we know this for like weeks? Heh, did people really think the rumored comp. wasn't true?

No shit. Quite the embarrassment we have become.

I had hoped that they made a rash decision and after thinking about it and realizing what a STUPID ****ING DEAL this was they would recant.

Should have realized what the Chiefs stand for...

welcome alex

go **** yourself

Welcome to Kansas City Alex! Time to prove yourself!

Like getting kicked in the balls all over again.

It's 2009 all over again. WHOOOO-PEEEEE!

He should be treated like Cassel did last year with absolutely no leeway.

Stop giving me hope.

Chiefs and Royals need to have a deathmatch to determine "worst sports franchise of all time".

30 years of that will change a man!

you guys knew about this for weeks but its amazing how the reality finally sets in once it becomes official. i feel for a lot of you, i have accepted this turd and his smelly contract to lead us to an 8-8 season.

How about we grab the team's physician and swap him out with Hamas Jenkins who will then fail him miserably, thus cancelling the trade?

I'll give him a chance...

So much for the Chiefs getting picks back from SF. First round compensation for Alex Smith.

Only the ****ing Chiefs.

Don't worry. He's not going to suck. He's going to play just good enough to win over some fans, but not good enough to ever win a ring. That way heated Alex Smith debates will consume this message board for many years to come.

basically a 1st round pick for Cassel's younger brother




**** my life

Dude your QB is Blaine ****ing Gabbert. ROFL.

how does it feel Chiefs fans that this team is ****ed for another few years with no legit shot at a super bowl? its fan****ingtastic!! :( **** this franchise

Heated debates? There's maybe five people here who aren't smart enough to realize he's crap.

It's the Chiefs, and it's not close. The Chiefs are a perennial failure in a parity-driven league; The Royals are a perennial failure in an imbalanced league.

I just hope it doesn't take four years for the majority of Chief fans to turn on him, as was the case with Cassel.

Hopefully, they'll turn on this POS right away.

Whats the difference, they both suck and both have no shot at doing anything special.

I was totally hoping we were joking.

should have signed chase daniel and drafted geno

cheaper for sure

You make a fair point.

Yep. Either that or be miserable before the season even begins.
If he sucks ass, then Ill be miserable, but no reason to waste all the energy now.
If he somehow does well, then I dont have to be miserable.
Giving him a chance cuts down on the misery considerably.

We'll see. I didn't want him here either but i'm willing to give him a chance at least.

Glenn Dorsey to visit 49ers

Why? It's like another year of Cassel at the helm.

anything less than a playoff berth and win is a complete **** job.

My philosophy is diametrically opposite of that. He's a turd. It's a fact. Acknowledge that and be prepared for the team to go nowhere for the next 5 years. That way you can only be pleasantly surprised. Don't waste energy wishing for a miracle. You know what you got, there's no point in hoping things will be magically better. You'll only get your hopes crushed later.

some people are still in denial like they think geno is still going to be the pick till its official i guess.

He'll probably blow up there.

No, Im not hoping for anything. Im just choosing not to be miserable over something I cant control before anything truly bad happens. Ill just sit back, and give him a chance, instead of running around crying about the sky falling. Then when or if he fails us, Ill be miserable. If he doesnt, then Ill be stoked. Until then, Ill just be chill...

you got no choice. Chiefs have said, here is another shit sandwhich this time we put ketchup and onion rings on it! But your still eating shit.


Im in the same boat. i have to eat it too.

Correct. We have a younger Check Down King than the one you have.

Pull it out Season Ticket Holders. Is it a Magnum?

I don't get this line of thinking. Do you honestly believe there's a possibility Smith could play well enough to get this team to a Super Bowl? AFCCG?

Please, quantify "does well"

yeah, its not gonna happen. Its going to be a ****ing tackle and Albert is going to be forced into RT and not sign his offer til the season starts. lol

Dude that little guy whooped some ass!

**** EVERYTHING

This. Dorsey and Reid got my hopes up for a bit and there's still the draft, I suppose, but I'm fully preparing for a boring passing game and mediocrity. I still watched last year knowing full well we were ****ed going in with just cassel and quinn, so I'm sure I'll watch this year as well. And sure, there's an outside chance it might be interesting, but I'm not going to go in pretending a honda civic is going to turn into a ferrari randomly.

Wins us lots of games, including the playoffs.

I love how some people get all upset just because some of us choose not to get all emotional and want to kill ourselves over Alex ****ing Smith. If you want to, go for it. Im sure you can find razor blades somewhere. Me on the other hand, Im willing to sit back and see what happens before I slit my wrists.

Some of you guys are worse than women. And thats pretty bad coming from a woman.

That's now. Within the next couple years you will make wildcard and you will all see his demonstrated class and professionalism. He will win over some.

I'm not miserable about it. I'm resigned to it. This is 2009 all over again. He's a slightly closer-to-league-average version of Matt Cassel. That's all he'll ever be. This is a bad, bad move, and there's no other way of looking at it. Alex Smith is a game manager who needs to lean on a team that runs the ball 550 times a year.

It's amazing to me, but the guy's been gone for almost 15 years, and we still haven't purged Martyocrity from this franchise. This is a total Schottenchoker move.

At least it'll be entertaining if Andy Reid tries to put AS at the helm of a pass happy offense. Should go nuclear in an epic way.

I don't get how some people will willingly spend their time and money on a team that's not devoted to winning. What's the point of even paying attention if you know the team has absolutely no shot of doing shit before the season even starts? That's what people are pissed about.

Kansas City Chiefs ‏@kcchiefs

Chiefs Top Shots "Welcome" #chiefskingdom http://instagr.am/p/WxbDJJBV6G/

And you may be right on the money. You may not. but, Im just choosing to be a happy person, not miserable, like some people regarding this trade. Well see what happens is my approach. I cant control it. I can only control my emotions, and thats exactly what Im doing.

Exactly. That's the only thing that will be worth watching the season; the complete ineptitude that will ensue when Smith has to try and win games. The circus should be somewhat entertaining, for a few games at least.
