he could have been signed for nothing last year and no one bit...
and anyways, we never won a playoff game with green

I don't necessarily disagree with any of these points.
I think Alex Smith certainly has a very similar skill set to Trent Green. I think the move would basically be the same move Vermeil made 10 years ago.
I'm not even trying to argue with you. I want Geno Smith at #1.
I'm just giving my opinion on Alex Smith. I think 28 year old Alex Smith has developed to the point where his ceiling is Trent Green and I think he can reach that ceiling instantly with Andy Reid.
I'm not thrilled, this doesn't give me hope, and I don't think we'll win anything of worth with Alex Smith and Andy Reid.
