Default Chiefs Trade For Alex Smith

Quote:
NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reported the compensation is a second-round pick in 2013 and possibly a pick in 2014. Glazer's wording suggests that a new contract could be coming for Smith, who was due $7.5 million in the final year of his deal. The Chiefs wouldn't give up this much in the draft for a one-year rental.

Rumors are that it's for two 2nds.

ESPN is reporting that it's just a 2nd this year and a mid-round pick in 2014. If so, that's a pretty good deal for the Chiefs as Alex Smith is the best FA quarterback available. This also confirms that either Joeckel or Fisher will be the first pick in the draft.

Really surprised Jim Harbaugh didn't see the error of his ways and trade Kaepernick rather than Smith.

The 49ers were a better team with Alex Smith. Undisputed.

Said it would least be a 2nd. We'll see if this is true.
Two 2nds...wow

Still over a month until April 1.

This could be good for us.

Maybe Geno falls to us at 18 and we get a decent trade offer or two.

I don't see Geno making it to 18. Some team ALWAYS gets desperate for a QB and reaches in the 1st round. That could well be Arizona or Buffalo. Even if he did make it to us, I doubt we would get offers.

huh? someone will pick him before 18, but if he makes it to 18, nobody will want to trade to the spot? why not?

Because they know the teams after us won't go for a QB. They can easily snag Geno in the 2nd round.

Joeckel might slide big time. He's been unimpressive in the combine, and his tape is apparently not that impressive to the pro scouts.

Doubt he falls that far, but we can hope. And I'm glad that, even as a WVU homer, you didn't suggest we take Gino if he fell to 18. Impressive.

First, I think this guy will be a bust. And second, I think the read-option will have a very short lifespan in the NFL, similar to the wildcat. Defensive coordinators are busy solving it right now.

So the '9ers now have 15 picks in this year's draft, and 5 in the first 3 rounds. Wow.

Geno Smith is not a read option QB...
