Shit year for them, but maybe KC will indeed find a gem amongst one of them, and make it happen.

People going from desperate to just draft a QB to now wanting a young QB to be so good that Reid has no choice but to cut Smith and play the the rookie year 1. Of course, then they will want the rookie QB to be Super Bowl level by game 2. the demands never cease increasing the unrealistic expectations

The rookie qb doesn't have to be at a SB level by game 2, you'd have enough team around him that he could lean on it while he gets his feet wet. |

He didn't do much, but 80% of that is quite a damn bit less. You're tanking this season if you dump Alex Smith. The big problem with all of these QB prospects is readiness, not talent. The talent is there but none of them can run a team at a playoff level right now, not even this year's truefan favorite, Nate Peterman. Well, Cooper Rush could, but he's not making it past the Bears.

I also don't expect said rookie qb to produce at that level, especially if the front office were to move away from Smith. They won't do it, I even necessarily think they should. But if there's a situation that they think the rookie can put up numbers similar to Smith's last season, they should take the picks and salary and move on. By having the rookie qb sit a year, that's a year of value gone. Ideally, you recoup that over his tenure by him being a franchise qb, so it's worth it. But if I could have both, I'd do it. |

By then, nobody's going to trade for a QB that hasn't been in their system all off-season; he's worthless to them. Nothing about trading/cutting Alex Smith this season makes sense - sorry.

The good thing with the drop-off from Smith is maybe you get 10-15 more INT's, but you're also going to get 10 more TD's too.
A QB throwing only 15 TD's in today's NFL is hilarious. |

80% of Alex's production is 12 TD's.
Idk guys...seems like a hard job to fill for a rookie
