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

Wow, I am totally shocked. Just a few weeks ago people surmised if the Niners couldn't trade him, they would cut him, and all the talk about them keeping Alex Smith was posturing. A 2nd round and possibly another 2nd rounder is an extremely high price for a team that didn't have all the leverage in the world.
I could see Reid wanting to trade down now to recoup some of the lost picks. I also wonder if the Cardinals offered the Niners a crazy offer and Reid wanted Smith so badly that he thought he had to match it. I'm still trying to digest this. The Chiefs impact what the Eagles do in the draft, so I'll definitely be keeping a close eye. I hope it works out for the Chiefs, I really do. |

He knew we were dumb enough....
Tim Kawakami@timkawakami NFL source: Alex Smith recently gave the 49ers an informal list of preferred teams. No demand, just a list. KC was at or near the top. |

They're going to turn the #34 pick (and something??) into Darrelle Revis. Good luck every other team.

I don't see how it ****ing works out.
Situation 1: Do you really want to make it rain contract $$$ on ****ing Alex Smith? Situation 2: Do you really want to send that much in terms of picks for someone whose going to be around 2 seasons max for not good value? Jesus what a stupid ****ing trade. |

We traded for Matt Cassel so we could cut Matt Cassel? Fear and loathing.

his contract is FULLY guaranteed in a ****ing MONTH
holy ****ing **** this crap so even if hes terrible in training camp, and the beginning of the season, we are on the hook for that 8.5 million no matter how bad. So he gets 8.5 million as a Chief before ever playing a game as a Chief. That is pathetic. |
