Sure is going to be a lot of crow being eaten when no better than 8-8 again. I'm not excited at all. Smith a game manager . I rather have drafted a qb instead.

In 2018 maybe. But we aren't a Superbowl contender this year with whoever our QB is. A rookie draft pick at QB could easily overtake a 35+ year old Alex Smith in year 2 or 3. Heck a Rookie QB draft pick just DID overtake Alex Smith on the Chiefs depth chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dashing202 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Quote Where Smith will drive Redskins fans bananas is on third and fourth down, as he doesn’t always get the ball past the first-down marker on those pass attempts. Dating back to 2015, just 41 percent of his passes on third or fourth down traveled at least one yard past the first-down marker, the lowest rate among passers with at least 300 attempts over the past three years.

While I 100% agree with everything you wrote the FO screwed the Pooch, Cousins was Never signing long term, never! Despite some of your hopes and His Professionalism So choices were. 1. One more lame duck year at 28-32m and the same mediocrity. 2. Draft the 3rd best Rookie QB in the teens. Start a complete rebuild. 3. Sign a QB whose done Nothing but win in the NFL and might be one of the most underappreciated QB in NFL history. I'm sorry but after the shock of this wears off, option 3 isn't as bad as you guys are making it out to be UNLESS you are telling me a Complete Rebuild was necessary and it's NOT an injury riddled Redskin Team with Talent?

Or is Andy trying to Justify his draft pick and the absurd compensation he paid for it? This is Reid's desperate attempt to save his job. No way could he go into 2018 Not starting Mahomes! This has SF 2.0 written all over it. New flashy toy with "Upside"!!! Going to be funny when PM struggles to do anything close to what Smith did in 2017.

lavar703 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Here's the thing, I respect Alex Smith. He's a gamer and he's a good QB. It's not about disliking Smith. If this were a second round pick for Smith I could accept that but the Fuller thing tilts this so far in one direction that it's just hard to feel positive about this. You can't simultaneously build a roster while stripping away proven assets from the weakest part of your team. Fuller was a building block and the moment the Chiefs requested him is the moment most sane organizations would've hung up the phone but you're not dealing with a sane organization. There is a clear reason why the Chiefs requested Fuller and that's because they know how desperate and dumb our front office is. We were taken behind the woodshed on this one. So people can stop with the "you have to give up assets to get a QB' crap. Smith was traded for second round picks, Garappolo was had for a second round pick etc. and there was simply no need for the Redskins to feel like they're so close to competing that they could make a silly deal that involves a young stud DB. You make your offer of a second and say a third the following year and the moment they ask for Fuller you hang up the phone. You don't entertain the idea let alone accept the terms. What I think actually ends up happening is Mahomes sucks, Smith sucks with the Redskins and the Chiefs use the third rounder on a middling player. Fuller however, ends up being an All-Pro.
