I get it that people are pissed we got smith but the reality is that there wasn't much to choose from. He will be better than cassel.

Of course he's better than cassel; goddamned butffumble sanchez is better than cassel.
As much as I like what they're doing otherwise, they went out and got a mediocre stopgap QB for a very high pick, immediately signed an underwhelming backup and then declared that Alex Smith was the unquestioned starter, no competition needed.
That sucks. Even more so, when you consider that's exactly what the previous regime did with Casshole.
Personally, it doesn't matter that there wasn't much to choose from. I'd rather have had Jamarcus Russell killing people on the sidelines with errant bullets than waste the 2.2 pick and another conditional pick on a guy whose best attribute is that he doesn't lose you the game, and then declare that there will be no competition for him to start!
