Will be curious to see what he brings in a trade... 34 years old, $20M ... would have to think it's a trade and restructure kind of deal to give them security for 2 years if they're giving up anything higher than a R3.
I still think the Browns with all those picks and cap room are your huckleberry.

All Clay would have to do is stand there waving his arms like a wide open receiver and Alex would never see him or just refuse to step on the accelerator.

One of our local stations here in Phoenix was reporting last night on how interested the Cardinals are in Smith, how he'd be perfect for the QB situation right now, and how the Cardinals realize they'd have to give up their mid first round pick for him but even so, they're still very interested. At least that's the scuttlebutt for now.

If you could get the first rounder from the cardinals, man.
Veach would be a badass for that |

His best bet... go to the Jaguars. Not sure what Luck is going to be like when he comes back, same with Watson - but, if he's ok, HOU is set. That being said, the Jags are kinda built as a "QB Away" from being a nice threat the next 2-3 years.
Cardinals have to deal with the Rams and whatever the SEA look like next year... and the 49ers are on the rise. Wonder if the Jags make a play.

It looks to me like there's 4 teams that could use his services.
1. Browns 2. Jaguars 3. Bills 4. Cardinals Those are some good teams to start a bidding war. The Browns have a high enough 2nd pick that the other 3 would have to throw their 1st round pick to beat their offer. Or I could be over valuing Alex Smith and they just offer a 3rd. I'm fine with that as well. |

I don't see why any team would be dying to give up anything significant for Alex Smith.
Jacksonville would make sense but Cousins would be a much better option. Buffalo has two #1's and Tyrod Taylor. They'd be better off letting Tyrod be their bridge QB and using their draft capital to secure one of the four great, young QB's in the draft. Arizona would make sense, but they'd also be better off using their draft picks to trade up for a young QB. That leaves the Browns, who can pick whoever they want and have extra picks to burn on Smith. But does John Dorsey really want to deal with KC? And why wouldn't they just sign Josh McCown to be the placeholder in case their QBOTF isn't ready? |

Once their HB comes back they have a complete offense. A nice group of WR's (even with Fitz gone and one of them constantly being out with a blood disorder.) All Smith has to do is move the chains and not turn it over to protect a defense (much like KC's) that gives up yards but gets turnovers.
I think it's a good fit. I would think that Nagy+Smith would have been good to Cleveland. Dorsey knows what he's getting and they'd likely hit 8 wins in year 1...

Make a prediction or something. No one is gonna trade for him? He will just get released? What? |

They just need a guy like Smith to not eff it up. Taylor is gone after this year. It would get Smith out of the division (and a Nagy+Smith move would have made sense.)

And the Bills, Cardinals and Jaguars don't have the draft capitol to move up for a QB. The Bills have the #21 and #22 picks which aren't going to be worth enough to move up into the Top 10....let alone the Top 5 for a QB. And if a team DOES have enough to move up....you're basically drafting that QB and forcing him to start because you have nothing else. I still think the best team for Alex is the Browns but I'd be down with the Cardinals or the Jaguars giving us a 1st for Alex. |
