The 49ers have expressed to others that a deal for QB Alex Smith is effectively complete. Can't be finalized til league year begins 3/12

so it's not official, both clubs view it at as it's effectively done. I do not know the other team. KC and JAX are 2 teams that make sense

We are going to get Foles. Cards will get Alex Smith. We have spoken to the eagles about foles and our interest in Alex is pure speculation where Arizona has openly inquired about him.

Say hello to Foles for a conditional 4th r d pick.

I could stomach Foles, atleast we don't know for sure what he will be yet.

We already know the Chiefs have discussed it. The only thing shot down was that a deal was already in place. 0 chance he goes to the Cardinals.

Where do we "know" it's just specter that we are the team who has inquired... Nobody locally has CONFIRMED that.

You know two things for sure -

1) Jack
2) Shit

That's not fair, you know one other thing - You know everything Peter King and Mike Mayock tell you to believe.

According to Rapoport, the Cardinals believe the Chiefs are "closing in" on a deal for Colin Kaepernick's backup. Rapoport also reports the Browns are "said to have some interest." It's clear Sunday's report that a trade was "effectively complete" was bogus, but the Chiefs are very much the leader in the clubhouse. Smith would be a poor fit in Bruce Arians' highly-vertical system.

Here's something to think about.

1)Why would the cardinals or the Chiefs be looking at Alex Smith as a starter when his skill set doesn't really fit either Reid or Arians style of offense?

2) if the Cardinals don't think they can get Alex, they wouldn't want to drive the price up on him...that is counterproductive and beneficial to. Division foe.

Why would anyone locally confirm something that took place in Indy? What incentive would they have in letting it be known officially?

Alex Smith will be able to learn the playbook in a few days because of how similar it will be to the other WCO systems he has been a part of.

When did we get confirmation that KC is even interested?

It's funny that we are so suppose to believe that this QB trade stuff is 100% happening when in fact it hasn't because one it's a total misdirection, and after the combine and interviewing players shit can change in an instant.

I guess that depends on what you consider confirmation. Because if your idea of confirmation is the team themselves saying it, then that's just stupid. A team isn't going to come out and say it. You will find out the day they announce the trade.

**Bowser** · 02-26-2013, 08:12 PM

I bet the Niners brought up the possiblity of us sending them Jamaal Charles as part of the deal if we are interested in Alex. Does that mean JC is on the way to San Fran since it has been "talked" about?
