Alex Smith breaks the bank.
 

Is this guy any good? Maybe KC should bring him in for a look if Mahomes doesn't work out: Per SI.COM

Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith signed a four-year, $94 million extension with the team last week, reports NFL.com.

Smith will make $40 million this upcoming season, which includes a $27 million signing bonus, according to the report.

The deal also includes $71 million in guarantees for injury, meaning Smith is under contract for five years and $111 million.

Smith made $10.8 million in base salary last season.

He was traded in January for cornerback Kendall Fuller and a 2018 third-round draft pick.

The 33-year-old Smith led the NFL in passer rating (104.7) this season and set career-highs in passing yards (4,042) and touchdowns (26) while throwing just five interceptions.

In 12 seasons, Smith has a 88-62-1 record as a starting quarterback.

WTF?

The guy got paid, can't fault him for that. :clap:

ROFL

WTF are the Redskins doing?

Something is broken when guys like this get paid this much. Not as embarrassingly desperate as the Keesum signing, but jeez...

Look at those greenbacks, he must be so awesome that anyone can vindicate how badass he is because of his signing bonus and overall take. I repeat ANYONE can make the case how excellent Alex is as a player and a person./sarcasm

Good for him. Wish him all the best.


(Just thankful the Chiefs weren’t the ones to hand out this silly contract. Not that there was any chance of that, but still. I would have given up on them forever. Sorry, Washington fans. I feel bad for y’all)

He just banks

WOW!

Alex Smith and Carson Palmer will have retired after making over $300 million and winning three playoff games combined. LMAO

Teams want to win and Smith is a winner.

I didn't think they'd lock him up for the whole deal but he's pretty expensive to cut until the final season. Even that final season he's still a 7 million dead cap hit

Congrats Alex, wish you luck


Thanks for helping return the Chiefs back to being a respectable franchise.

There were some dark years before the Andy Reid era

Don't just stand for the anthem Alex. Dry hunch that freedom air

Gotta give it to you, you have a knack for karma.

Bringing Carson Palmer into the conversation when we have a rookie QB. Carson Palmer whose huge draft promise was squandered by a devastating fluke injury right when he was about to turn a franchise's playoff fortunes around.

Great job!!

ROFL Fishing for Sweets with dynamite

Suffocate on a dog's dick.

Add Sam Bradford to that list, and it goes to something like $415M and 3 playoff wins.

Sounds fun!

There were some that wanted Geno to have a contracts like this. Remember he was the second coming...

Funny it's the Geno Smithers

Every team is realizing that in 2018, you cant win a Super Bowl without a top shelf, or at least one playing like one at the time QB. They are overpaying big time to keep from being left out.

Smith gets $111 million? What does that make Mahomes worth in 2022?

Rich, VERY Rich hopefully

I think this is the best move Veech has made so far. Five more years of Smith and a cap eating contract like that would have doomed this team and extended the Chief's playoff futility.

No, there weren't.

we traded alex smith, marcus peters, 6th round (#209)

for

kendell fuller, 3rd round (#78), 4th round (#124), LA Rams 2019 2nd round (#56 overall, 24th in 2nd round as of 2018 slotting, guessing similar or a bit lower next yr)

i need to look at them together or else i still get ticked off we bailed on peters too early for too little

in total, i still see a win for these trades

Patrick Mahomes II will resign with the Chiefs, 6 years, $300 Million guaranteed. The money won't matter; he'll already have the keys to the city. There will be streets named after him before he's thirty.

I hope, anyways.

Oh yeah, best thing since sliced bread brah

To the Meth Mobile!

He'll own car dealerships in the KC area like Elway with his in Denver.

The QB market is insane. Here are the top 5 cash earning QB's for 2018.

1. Garappolo $42.6M
2. Smith $40M
3. Brees $27M
4. Cousins $26M
5. Carr $22.5M

Well, if Matt Cassel is worth $63m...

I think you guys are getting the cart before the horse here with Mahomes. I'm as excited as the next guy, but lets chill on a contract at this point.

He's played 1 game.

Congrats Alex. Best of luck to you in Washington.

Because Redskins

1 game with a 0TD:1INT ratio. They need to extend him now while his value is low.

LMAO

And we all thought Clark got bent over.

Although AS clearly has his limitations, he was fundamentally a winner. In the right situation, he can win a SB. He just wont do it in Brady fashion...more like Dilfer and perhaps Flacco.

2015 Denver Manning made those two look like 500 Yard / 5 TD Playoff Average type of guys

Papa John was so proud of him!

Washington is NOT the right situation.

And Budwieser

Can't wait until he stops winning. One losing season and the league will spit him out like the piece of crap he is.

Could happen as early as this year.

Maybe you guys should kneel while you wait.

Holy mother****ing hell.

I’d be so damned furious if I were a redskins fan.

Good deal for everyone involved

I don't care if he makes a billion dollars a year, gets the best drinks, cars, houses, and women as long as he doesn't play in KC

Happy Trails, I'm not mad at that guy. Waste of energy

He looks like he is throwing a shot putt when he throws a football, but hey...he’s made millions!!!

Congrats to him, he wanted to make sure the team couldn't use him and throw him away at first chance. Don't blame him after what's happened in his career.

That's not even remotely true.

All he does is win

Washington is a very well ran franchise. Nobody can dispute that.

Overpriced FAs just love Daniel Synder - See Bruce Smith, Albert Haynesworth, Deion past his prime Sanders etc..........:D

Still no where near what Sam Bradford has done with his talent.

Thats Phillip Rivers.

No, No, No. Mahomes will be like Brady in that he will be very happy with being the 15th to 10th highest paid QB so that we can keep the team stocked with talent so we can continue to win SB after SB.

Chiefs lose to the Alex Smith led Redskins in the Super Bowl in 2021

Because Chiefs...

Absolute BIGGEST THIEF of all I totally agree.

I believe alex smith has won 2 playoff games....each playoff win has cost 50 million.

So, by paying him another 100 million, i guess the redskins expect to win 2 playoff games in the next 5 years?

Great plan

Oh baby.

Let's get this party started:


Actually, Smith is a loser. The Chiefs did a WONDERFUL job in jacking his value up by surrounding him with elite talent at two positions and above average talent at one. Not to mention a perfectly serviceable O-line that any QB devoid of a SCREAMING case of the shartpants could use to positive effect.
Without these elements, Alex Smith will most assuredly lose.

A lot.

^^^Speaking of Peebag...

LMAO

Ahh...dumbest Smith fantasy scenario/talking point/argument still. Makes me laugh every time I hear it.
SO glad we won't ever have to find out.

I don’t know how Alex will do. My guess is he’ll finish between 15th and 20th stat-wise, and the Redskins will be mediocre, missing the playoffs by a couple of games.

Looking good so far.

And of course hear comes the FG unit like always when Smith is in the red zone.

That's the gold zone/Herm

Or, how about. Three's are great, this isn't arena ball ya know.

Those are for you Beulher. We know how much you love and miss Herm. LMAO

Alex Smith sucks...

**** Squirmin Herman Mother****ing Sack of **** Edwards!

But hey, at least he got past the 50 yard line. ROFL

Everyone should pick up Dustin Hopkins in their fantasy leagues.

Great in Tootsie

he didn't play a full four quarters tho. :thumb:
