But there's simply no looking at Alex Smith's career numbers and coming to any other conclusion than he's mediocre. Now, we're asking him to "develop" at 29-years-old, when he should be in his absolute prime.
We know what he is, an average QB who is not good enough to win a SB with. However, if we'd paid his true value to use him as a stop gap, meanwhile continuing to turn over stones for a real franchise QB, I would have applauded the move.

Look, I was pissed for a very long time over the trade. Half of it was what it probably meant in terms of the draft, and half what you mention in the value.
Whith that being said, do we really know exactly what his value is? You talk about his career; until Harbaugh became his coach two years ago hr absolutely sucked. The past two seasons where he actually haf a compitent coach he did a complete 180. Let's wait and see what a proven QB mentor of a head coach like Reid can do with him before passing final judgment.
People are getting all up in arms about Smith being compared to Green. Remember what we gave up for Green and how pissed off everyone was about it?
