I don't think the value is good, but I think he is the better player this year. I think geno's system makes him a bit overrated and wasn't all that comfortable in hitching our wagon to a rookie that seemingly nobody is enamored with. Keep in mind that the coaches on this team got to interview the class and watch them at the combine and still passed.
I'm wondering if signing smith makes it more likely for another team to try and trade up. It's not out of the question for the chiefs to pick up a 2nd rounder and change in a trade down. If so, you pick up Milner in the 10 range and hopefully see what's available in the 2nd round.
