Yo we dont think you are as good as Jay Cutler, so here's 60 million?
Alex would say **** off.

I don't think Alex Smith looks at the financial part of this deal the same as other quarterbacks.
The guy gives a shitton of his money to charity, signed a team friendly deal to stay the starter in SF after taking his team to the NFC championship game, has actually given money back to the team in restructures and is a PURE team first guy.
While I don't think he would sign for 10/yr...I do think he would sign for something around 12-14.
He knows there aren't many places he can go that has the opportunity to start as well as a coaching staff that would use him the way Andy will.
The guy made a sick amount of money already and seems to want to win at this point of his career...he will be 30 in may.
