Chiefs Alex Smith breaks the bank. - Page 2

Is this guy any good? Maybe KC should bring him in for a look if Mahomes doesn't work out: Per SI.COM

Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith signed a four-year, $94 million extension with the team last week, reports NFL.com.

Smith will make $40 million this upcoming season, which includes a $27 million signing bonus, according to the report.

The deal also includes $71 million in guarantees for injury, meaning Smith is under contract for five years and $111 million.

Smith made $10.8 million in base salary last season.

He was traded in January for cornerback Kendall Fuller and a 2018 third-round draft pick.

The 33-year-old Smith led the NFL in passer rating (104.7) this season and set career-highs in passing yards (4,042) and touchdowns (26) while throwing just five interceptions.

In 12 seasons, Smith has a 88-62-1 record as a starting quarterback.

Gotta give it to you, you have a knack for karma.

Bringing Carson Palmer into the conversation when we have a rookie QB. Carson Palmer whose huge draft promise was squandered by a devastating fluke injury right when he was about to turn a franchise's playoff fortunes around.

Great job!!

Thanks for helping return the Chiefs back to being a respectable franchise.

Add Sam Bradford to that list, and it goes to something like $415M and 3 playoff wins.

Every team is realizing that in 2018, you cant win a Super Bowl without a top shelf, or at least one playing like one at the time QB. They are overpaying big time to keep from being left out.

Smith gets $111 million? What does that make Mahomes worth in 2022?

Rich, VERY Rich hopefully

I think this is the best move Veech has made so far. Five more years of Smith and a cap eating contract like that would have doomed this team and extended the Chief's playoff futility.

we traded alex smith, marcus peters, 6th round (#209)

for

kendell fuller, 3rd round (#78), 4th round (#124), LA Rams 2019 2nd round (#56 overall, 24th in 2nd round as of 2018 slotting, guessing similar or a bit lower next yr)

i need to look at them together or else i still get ticked off we bailed on peters too early for too little

in total, i still see a win for these trades

Patrick Mahomes II will resign with the Chiefs, 6 years, $300 Million guaranteed. The money won't matter; he'll already have the keys to the city. There will be streets named after him before he's thirty.

I hope, anyways.
