Alex Smith Talks Progressing Slowly
Alex Smith talks going slowly, could pick up after the draft
Posted by Mike Florio on April 22, 2014, 5:30 PM EDT Alex Smith, Cortez Allen AP Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith acknowledged on Tuesday that talks aimed at extending a contract that expires after the coming season are underway. And indeed they are. But a source with knowledge of the situation tells PFT that the discussions are moving very, very slowly. The discussions could, and likely will, pick up after the draft. If/when an agreement is reached, look for the deal to have a value in the neighborhood of $14 million to $17 million per year. Which would be a very good contract for a guy who was the first pick in the 2005 draft and who was at times regarded as being a borderline bust. Smith has busted out in a big way the last few years. While it feels like he’s been around forever, Smith still isn’t 30 years old. That’s true. I checked. Twice. He turns 30 on May 7. And he’s made plenty of money in the NFL over the last nine years. He could be making a lot more, soon. |

I'm not even sure I'd go that high...but Andy Reid and John Dorsey will go wayyyy higher. Especially after Clark Hunt has said multiple times that he wants Alex Smith here in KC.
Just be prepared for the announcement of the Jay Cutler type deal. |

sounds like they might actually draft a QB in the 1st if one falls
either that or Smith is asking for a ton

Smith was fortunate to play shitty teams with backup QBs in. Hopefully this season will expose how shitty he really is.

The fact is, the dude got hot in the second half of the season, and nailed it in the playoff game. It takes a little time for an offense with a new QB to gel, and that's exactly what happened. It's not his fault the wheels came off the defense. |
