I tried doing this the other day and it's pointless.
People will drop Smith's stats next to Cassel's and say "look! see!"
It's stupid.
Alex Smith is a average/to above average NFL QB. He's exactly what you said. An efficient game manager.
I said his ceiling was Trent Green.
Which is 'meh.' I liked Green a lot. One of my favorite Chiefs...
but we've been down that road. Time to take a franchise QB at #1 and see what happens. If they want to give the 49ers a 4th for Alex Smith and take Geno at 1.1 then I'm more than ok with that.
But Smith and Joeckel? We better go 12-4, win at least 1 playoff game, and see Alex Smith have a career year and not just a stat wise career year.
