Rumblings of Aqib Talib and a 2nd for Alex Smith. I think no chance you make that trade inside the division, but maybe horse face is getting desperate.
That seems like a terrible idea for Kansas City.
I’d love it, personally. Talib+Peters instantly makes it the best DB duo in the league and the Mahomes era starts off when it should+plus a 2nd.
You sure about that? Trading an above average NFL QB for a cornerback on the backside of his career and a 2nd round pick seems a little crazy. When you add in that you'd be starting a complete wild card at QB, it seems insane to me.
While all of that is fair, it's pretty clear that the Chiefs plan on starting that "complete wild card" regardless of what happens with Smith, so why not get something of value? Now if you want to argue that it's not enough value, I get it. But the logic is pretty sound.

Is Alex Smith really an above average QB?

I don’t disagree with this at all now that they got themselves into the situation.So, you just sit a guy who you traded up for in the top 10 and drafted a QB in the first round overall for the first time in over 30 years to play Alex Smith in a contract year?
You don’t try to get something for Alex? When his ceiling will never be higher. Including possibly your first rounder back.
Adam Schefter is reporting they extended Smith for 4 years.
I like Smith for all the terrible Niner teams he had to endure (Mike Singletary lol) but is he that much better than Cousins? Maybe he’ll look better without Andy Reid coaching his playoff games.
Reminds me of the Panthers signing Delhomme to a 5 year deal at age 34
Yes, and of course over the next 4 years there won't be any QBs worth drafting or signing. None whatsoever. Over the course of 4 years. That will be better than Alex Smith. In his late 30s.
Can’t wait for CHOSEN to poop on Washington for the next decade while Wolfmong cries and writes dogwhistle posts
