He's more accomplished, younger, cheaper and under control for longer than Smith is.
So unless Smith kills it this season, why would a team prefer Smith to Dalton if they're looking for a veteran bridge to a younger QB? If you're the Jags and you can have Smith for a season or Dalton for 3 (with no guaranteed dollars still attached).
I don't think Smith will have much trade value.

Andy Dalton is a younger Alex. They are both the definitly average, just different flavors.
Andy is only as good as the talent around him while Alex is Alex regardless of talent.
