That's why I don't stick my neck out there and go full bora bora reerun, "HEZ DA FUTUREZ!!!"
Bray has a hell of a support system around him and all the talent in the world.

You are high as shit.
They didn't bring in Smith as a stopgap. Not a freaking chance in hell. Reid's already stated that he's going to try to get him into the Hall of Fame and has tried to acquire him for the Eagles in the past.
That's his boy right there. He envisions the athletic, mobile, intelligent Smith as the perfect guy to run his offense. Considering that he's used 7 watt lightbulbs like McNabb and Vick and has been very successful with them, Smith has to look like a 1000w metal halide grow light to Reid and his system.
Bray does have the tools, but he's got a long way to go from a technical/mechanical perspective as well as having to prove his maturity issues are behind him. If Aaron Rogers was able to sit for four years before getting the reigns handed to him, you better believe that's the entry level expectation on a guy like Bray in a system like Reids.
Smith is the guy here in KC for 5 to 8 years.
