The question isnt "was Alex the best available", the question is "was the gap between Alex and someone like Matt Moore, Carson Palmer, or Jason Campbell worth 2 second rounders"

What is your answer to that?
Of course he is. Matt Moore has shown nothing but inconsistent play, more bad than good, Carson Palmer is nothing more than a complainer and doesn't do well in losing situations.
And Jason Campbell despite knowing the offense, and being supported by the front office as they hate Brandon Weeden, couldn't beat him out.
The gap is absolutely huge given what Andy Reid wants from his qb.
he wants a mobile guy, something that Moore, and Palmer aren't, he wants an accurate guy which Campbell has not shown.
People can slice it anyway they want. Alex Smith is heads and shoulders above them when you factor in everything.
