Wrong.
Now, this doesn't preclude Smith from someday developing into an average to above average QB. But his actions on draft day and since seem to prove that he doesn't "get it".
Regardless, the Chiefs would have been a disaster in waiting had they selected Smith at 1.1 and signed Chase Daniel.

I'm more upset if we give up an opportunity to draft a top prospect QB in next years draft by giving the niners another 2nd draft pick than passing on Geno Smith. I can live with Alex Smith being a stop gap if that is the plan & look at this years QB prospects & continue to upgrade in the draft. It's if he lives up to the mediocre way of the Chiefs and we are stuck in purgatory I'm worked up about.
Winning in the playoffs would prove me wrong.
