Possible other teams are snapping up QBs like Flynn & Kolb b/c they too think Geno going #1 overall, see options diminishing?

Rappoport doesnt believe its a smokescreen and ProFootballCentral says the interest is real. He said the Chiefs overpayed for Alex and should of waited because A Smith could of been gotten for a fourth or possibly a fifth.

The guy did tell me that it's not a smoke screen that they like the skillset and that they don't feel Geno is NFL ready off the bat, but they love his long term outlook.

He said the reason Reid wanted Alex is because they felt this roster was ready to win day 1 and that he wanted to give veterans on the squad (Hali, DJ, Charles) a fighting chance for success. He said they didn't feel Geno could come in this year and win with this team that he's just not ready. The morale of the team was terrible at the end of last year and they didn't want another pathetic season because they are trying to break this losing culture. That Alex Smith had a lot to do with trying to right the ship immediately.

Now all of this just could be team speak and they really just want to drive up the value, but it's what I was told. Believe it, don't believe it, it's all the same to me.

Thanks for the info.

If this is how they really feel, it makes perfect sense. Let Alex play out the final 2 years of his contract. Start Geno in 2015.

It was reported the Chiefs offered a 3rd initially, then he Bills offered a 2nd, so hat is how we overpaid and wound up giving a 2nd and then some.
