This is a move that I have wanted this franchise to do for years, acquire a reclamation project at QB which provides you with a good backup and who knows, could either be your franchise QB or a trade chip.
My only hesitation is this kind of move might not be good for the Chiefs. The last thing I want around here is some name brand backup that fans will root for or worse, call to replace Smith after a bad game. For the past two seasons we have seen how well the Alex Smith brand of offense works. Don't mess with it. I also think this would ruin a guy like Aaron Murray who I think can be our #2 next year and be our QB of the future.
Don't mess with something that's not broken, but I appreciate the idea. I'd also echo that RG3 has had a ton of talent around him. Stud RB to carry the load, check. Talented WRs, check. Solid OL, Check. Shit he had the Rat for a HC and couldn't make it work.
