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

Going back and forth between Jax radio and KC radio today. The radio jocks here are pissed they're not getting Alex Smith. Stuck with Gabbert. lol.

While the idiots in Jax should be happy they aren't getting Alex Smith, and should be happy that their franchise actually had the balls to draft and develop a QB.... they were idiots for reaching on Gabbert.

And they've done it twice in the past 10 years: Gabbert in 2011 and Leftwich in 2003.

I'm still not 100% sold on the Jag's GM coming out so quick and saying that it wasn't them in discussions.

It seems a little fishy.

O.city · 02-25-2013, 10:47 AM

If they wanna drop Gabbert, I'll take him in KC for a 5th rounder.

Can I cling to it too? Help a brother out here.

Cleveland, Jacksonville and Buffalo are all more logical spots for Smith.....more so than KC.

Jacksonville and Cleveland could use a low cost Veteran QB to allow them time to evaluate their already drafted QB from the last couple of years. Buffalo has a rookie HC that is going to need to win early....especially in that division....and especially with how much they've spent on that defense. Plus the Bills aren't in that great of a position to get someone like Geno Smith.

And yeah....I'm sure people can flip that shit around and say that KC is the perfect spot for Alex Smith because we don't have shit.

Ok I've thought bout this. We are panicking over what has happened in the past. We need to give Reid and Dorsey a chance. If we do make this trade my feeling is I'm cool with this if we don't give up too much.

My other thoughts on this is I'm ok with the trade as long as we still draft someone in second or third to groom that Dorsey and Reid see has potential. I just dont want to see a cassel situation where he is the starter with no real competition.

I'm targeting EJ Manuel or Tyler Wilson.

Oh and the thought process you only win with the qb you drafted is not allways true

Our own Len Dawson wasn't, Jim plunkett, Kurt Warner, Doug Williams, Trent Dilfer,Brad Johnson, Brett favre, and the great Johnny Unitas.

Just to prove u can win with someone else's draft pick.

B14ckmon · 02-25-2013, 11:00 AM

If you think it's Jacksonville, you are crazy lol.

Caldwell has said they aren't going to be big spenders in FA, and Smith is a horrible fit for our new OC.

Cool story, brah. Tell me... how many of the last 10 Super Bowl winners started a QB that they didn't draft?
