We gave up possibly double that. There was a bidding war for Alex Smith, but everything points to teams saying "**** that" when the Niners put up the initial asking price.
So why did Dorsey pay what he did?
Christ, I've never seen you so protective of a player so ordinary as Alex Smith. It's downright creepy.

At that point no other teams needed a QB - save the Raiders and maybe Arizona - the Raiders were already hot for Flynn (who is rumored to be on the trading block again BTW) and Arizona had already givin up a 2nd rounder for Kolb which didn't work out - they were probably gun shy - and that is it - no one else really had a QB need that they weren't willing to draft for.
