YoloinOhio Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 @chiefsinsider Romo to KC chatter has picked up significantly since Peter King's MMQB piece this morning. I'd say now at 50/50 up from 10/90 per my spies. If Tony Romo deal gets done with KC, told Smith landing spots include #49ers, #Jets & #Bills Also, Nick Foles hopes to stay with #Chiefs. I'm in no way stating it's a good idea but it has legs despite soon to be denials from KC on the rumor. Just rumblings right now. I'd say it's good intel. Now Will it happen? Far from certain. This is #Chiefs after all! @jumosq Alex Smith's due a roster bonus on 3/11, so this can't wait forever. Kansas City is 30th in the league with just $4 million in cap space ATM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estelle Getty Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I always said Smith can't win in the playoffs but maybe just maybe.....no never mind, he can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I can go either way on Smith. On one hand he struggled for a long time. He has had his best success when being coached by Harbaugh and Reid. Two great QB focused HQ. Smith would be an upgrade from TT in the sense he can distribute the ball and read a D better, IF he is the Alex Smith from the past 5 years.

H2o Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 He definitely throws the ball all over the intermediate part of the field. People would then be screaming about us not taking enough shots at deep throws to Watkins. It's a lose, lose situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1billsfan Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Signing Alex Smith is an NFL franchise putting up the white flag on ever becoming a real threat to win an NFL championship. If the Bills move on from Taylor, they aren't going to sign a QB who's only slightly better. If they move on from Taylor, they'll no doubt be looking for a young QB within these next two drafts and have him and Jones battle it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixxxer Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I would have picked him up when he left SF, people laughed at me If I'm not mistaken we tried to get him at the time. Alex Smith is better than Tyrod, not by much but, he's better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloRebound Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 If I can get Smith at 2 years $30m with basically none of it guaranteed versus Tyrods $30m guaranteed, sign me up for Alex smith. I think he's slightly better than Tyrod as well. Can't discount how much the guy has won. Not a long term solution at QB but if Tyrod isn't gonna take less money because why would he, I'd be happy with Smith as a bridge QB and then as a veteran backup when we find our franchise QB.

mannc Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I'm having a very hard time believing that Alex Smith would be an upgrade over Tyrod. He would cost at least as much, and he's six years older than TT. The world has definitely seen everything A. Smith has to offer as a QB, and it's not that great. Tyrod has started less than 30 games in the NFL and, IMO, he showed some significant improvement toward the end of 2016, once Sammy was playing again. This move would make little sense.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I literally laughed out loud. My thoughts exactly... I mean, Alex Smith is the guy you draft in the 14th round of your FF football draft. I can't believe anyone would get excited about that guy.

jr1 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Alex Smith is the original Tyrod. Mobile and low interception percentage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
