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

Jason La Canfora ‏@JasonLaCanfora

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

And if thats the case.....we probably low balled them and they're trying to up the price by releasing this.

if we traded for Smith, his contract would be 2 years, $15M. $7.5M a year.

If we draft Geno, his contract will be 4 years, $25M (guaranteed). $6.25M per year.

Are you not ok with $13.75M a year invested in QB's for 2013 and 2014?

It's not my money. But I would cut Tyson Jackson, Cassel, and use that money to pay Bowe and Albert, and bring in a big name FA to fill a position of need.
I would draft Geno and bring in Jason Campbell or Matt Hasselbeck for the cheap and start Geno day 1.

It's official now, folks:

49ers have completed a trade with the Chiefs for Alex Smith, tho can't be official til March 12. Chiefs really made a commitment to Smith
— Jay Glazer (@JayGlazer) February 27, 2013

Deal has been agreed upon between Chiefs and 49ers. Compensation unclear but I'm told again Chiefs have made a clear commitment to Smith.

On 810 :sigh:

Hootie · 02-27-2013, 10:58 AM

and here comes the meltdown

what's the commitment?

I tell you what, I'm still not going to freak out. But if this trade comes out and we gave him a BIG extension I'm just going to be royally pissed and probably stay out of football threads until draft day.

"Alex Smith is mobile, Geno Smith isn't. Alex Smith has already had his growing pains, we don't want growing pains. We'd be a legitimate contender with Alex Smith."

WTF is in the water in KC?

Hootie · 02-27-2013, 10:59 AM

there is no need to give Alex Smith an extension when he just signed a new contract and now he's under a more than fair 2 year, $15M contact

OrtonsPiercedTaint · 02-27-2013, 10:59 AM

This needed a new thread anyway I suppose..mulitples in coming up

Jay Glazer just said the Chiefs have traded for Alex Smith verbally.

I don't "truly think that Alex Smith is the answer." I just don't see any evidence that he is less of an answer than Geno Smith. If I'm right, then I'd rather us pay a 4th rounder instead a top pick for equal improvement.

chiefscafan · 02-27-2013, 11:01 AM

As long as commitment doesn't mean we aren't getting any competition for him. We better still draft a qb.
