49er Fan Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Against New Orleans in the playoffs last year Smith was elite. 4 touchdowns. Probably had a bounty on his head too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKBILLS Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 We could have had Kaepernick or Dalton instead of Aaron Williams... With that thought firmly planted in mind, let's once again put our trust in Buddy to take care of our QB woes through the Draft! Seems logical to me...

Hindsight is great, isn't it?Alot of NFL teams could have had them too, but they passed and fell into the second round. Its easy to go back and look after a few years at the players any team "could of had" instead of what they took and say it was a mistake.........

NoSaint Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 (edited) BS You don't have to have any kind of special standing in the league to demand a trade or release. He can go into the 49ers front office at any time and demand that they either move him or release him. He may not be a player thats going to be able to demand where he goes though, but he has the right and ability to ask for a trade/release and sit out until he gets it. There are plenty of teams in need of an upgrade at QB that would give him a look show me the last borderline starter to demand a trade, and sit out when they didnt get it. his skills dont warrant taking on that kind of trouble. its already a short list of spots that he would even compete for a starting spot - acting like that only shortens the list. hes not a guy that gets to demand anything. if he has a good relationship with the bosses, and they see an alternative path for themselves, they may part ways with him. of course its possible that he could hold out, but its certainly not a smart career choice for a guy like alex smith. Whos next? Matt Flynn? Kevin Kolb? Edited November 26, 2012 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just in Atlanta Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 He's Fitz, you do know that? ... Right? Enough of the retreads already. Let's get one in the draft, have him mentored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 look guys. desperation does things to a mans mind. I want Alex Smith. he can throw a long ball. We have this offensive line that some call very good, to protect him. We have a run game to lean on dont we ? or Do we. And does it matter that he can throw accurately deeper and hit a player in stride ? Maybe we need an offensive coordinator who can mentor a draft pick. But i really need a change from Ryan Fitzpatrick. I used to hope for him. i'm all over that. Move on. i would really like a shot at getting Colin K. instead : ( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan130 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 i agree with this. i love alex smith. not the greatest QB but love his attitude and overall would probably rank him as a slightly above average quarterback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, clearly we need an upgrade. Edited November 27, 2012 by ny33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, clearly we need an upgrade. As a very rough list - pretty much what I was getting at. Might slide a couple names around but nothing worth discussing in a fitz vs smith. Both in the right neighborhood. I think it's easy to forget how many good qbs are out there before you start actually tossing names on paper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Romes Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Fitz, Campbell, Smith, Orton all pretty much the same. Upper echelon mid career backup material with lots of starts. (though Campbell looked utterly horrible last week). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(though Campbell looked utterly horrible last week). Also agree- maybe even throw in like a Matt Moore Can steer a team short term but should probably be seeking a replacement if he's your #1 but just good enough that you don't get a #1 pick to do it and the available vets don't upgrade much. A gift and a curse depending on the state of your roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
