Alex Smith has got to be loving being a Chief. For one thing, the overall receiving corp he now has is better than he had at any time in SF. For his first six years there all he had was a bunch of retreads. Michael Crabtree was a talent coming out of college but he held out his rookie year until October and never really learned any of the routes. He pretty much free-lanced that whole year. The next two years he was injured all during training camp. Only this season has he been healthy and fully in the offense. Vernon Davis is a straight line runner but not good reading defenses and running solid TE routes. Smith made the most of what little he had there. Once Harbaugh arrived things picked up all the way around but Smith had a very good second half of the season the year BEFORE Harbaugh arrived. I'm glad he's a Chief and believe he will make a lot of fans happy.
