If the Chiefs go 8-8 or better 49ers get a 2nd round pick.
A third- or second-rounder from Kansas City, the remnant of the Alex Smith deal. Now it can be told: The second draft choice San Francisco will receive from the Smith deal will be K.C.'s second-rounder in 2014 if the Chiefs go 8-8 or better this season. It will be a third-rounder in 2014 if Kansas City is under .500 this season.
So: San Francisco will probably have first-, second- and four third-rounders next year. But if the Chiefs surprise, it'll more likely be a one, two twos and three threes. As we've seen, GM Trent Baalke is dangerous with extra picks in his hands. If Colin Kaepernick is very good, the Niners should be annual contenders for years with the picks laid out that way.

If he were in the long term plans, they'd have already extended him, IMO.

because he has been in the league 7 years already and has an established history
it isnt like he is an unknown commodity most people, even the MOST optimistic, acknowledge that his ceiling is game manager style QB with flashes of good moments

If he's your long term guy, you lock him up now, as it would come cheaper than if he does "set the league on fire" and you don't have to deal with a contract later.
The fact that they are letting him play out the year before they talk contract, seems to show that they aren't sold on him as the future. |

You can question the amount and the use of leverage, but this doesn't show a low level of confidence in Smith. At the least, it shows that they were willing to give two seconds without much protection and they didn't feel they had the leverage. You can go into something with a biased perspective (that they have little confidence in Smith) and make almost any move to be indicating what you want it to. I could do the same and say that they wouldn't give up that much if they just wanted to replace him quickly. I'm sure they would have loved to give one third rounder and call it a day, but they felt someone else would get him for that price or up to what they gave. |

Not saying he is the long-term solution or arguing against your contention that Flynn could do, just saying that if anything, giving up more than going for Flynn (a guy Dorsey drafted) shows more commitment to Smith and thus the chances of them being open to him as a long-term solution is increased. |
