hell no i wouldnt, i didnt even want him on the niners anymore

but you have to think

reid didnt come to kc to start a young qb with no track record. hes not going to let smith leave and smith knows that. that cutler contract is fuking up the nfl, fuk them bears. im just glad kaep took a team friendly deal, nobody questions his loyalty at this point. u have to see it from smiths point of view, this is his last nfl contract, he wants to get paid and i dont blame him. kc is in a bad situation, i think they were one pick away from manziel, they should of traded up.

I agree, especially with smith being in the driver's seat on this. Its his last NFL contract, and I dont disagree with him either

KC gave up too much to let Smith walk, IMO. It would be a disaster if he left. So he's in the driver's seat here. Thing is...that squad needs the cap space to improve a pretty poor team that's close to the cap. So paying Alex 18M handcuffs the team. They set it up that way so it's on them.

Alex Smith indicated he would not take a "pay-as-you-go" contract like the one Andy Dalton signed with the Bengals.

Dalton's contract includes no guaranteed money behind the first year. "I want to get something that's right that I'm going to play out, absolutely, and that's definitely a focus of mine," said Smith. Agent Tom Condon spoke with GM John Dorsey about a Smith deal "a couple days ago," but it's unclear if the gap is being bridged. Since the early spring, it's been rumored that Smith is targeting Jay Cutler or Joe Flacco money -- upwards of $20 million a year.

Alex always been bout the money. Dude really does have a high opinion of himself. If Chiefs give him a big time deal, all of them dudes will get canned within a year or 2.

Ive read somewhere some people are interpreting this as he'll take less money per but he wants more guaranteed money spread out so chiefs cant discard him like harbaugh did.

so its possible he actually decided that instead of betting on himself and going team-friendly, he just wants to be assured of having a job as a starter for years.

I don't blame him for wanting some security but he wants to handcuff the team. Dude is delusional.
