Well, it looks like the deal is done.
https://twitter.com/intent/user?scre...w_p=tweetembed Jay Glazer @JayGlazer 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 Deal has been agreed upon between Chiefs and 49ers. Compensation unclear but I'm told again Chiefs have made a clear commitment to Smith. |

I think people are butt hurt they aren't getting Geno and that makes sense. But if the trade does happen, I think many will be surprised when they actually get to watch the guy play. He's going to make you a much better team. I don't see why you guys aren't okay with that. |

Stat-wise, what is the regular season profile of a guy that can win playoff games? More than 4000 passing yards and a QB rating of 90+? Seems like nice round numbers to me. If Smith doesn't immediately put up those numbers, what's the point of the trade? I don't see Reid being able to get those numbers from Smith, but if he does, I'll change my opinion of the trade: If your QB gives you those numbers, doesn't really matter whether you give up a 2nd or a 4th.
Alex Smith seems Jake Plummer to me: An efficient passer when ahead in a game, but a disaster when behind. |

I would say that there is a 5-10% chance that the Chiefs would still draft Geno.....and this is the ONLY way that I think it goes down.
1. Geno tears up his pro day and by the time the draft rolls around......he's widely viewed as the #1 overall player. 2. The Chiefs don't extend Alex Smith....instead wanting him to prove he can win under his current contract (2 years left) 3. They aren't wowed by any offers from teams wanting to trade up. 4. They think that they can win now with the current roster, plus any FAs signed (including Albert and Bowe). All of that would have to happen for them to draft Geno at #1. |

Alex Smith is one of the clutchest QB's in the league. That is one of the only things that drove me nuts is that he would play okay all game, but at the end he would go lights out. He feeds off the pressure. |
