Let’s hope this is true.

Adam Shefter is a regular John Denver, full of shit.

Is the player to be named actually named to a small circle or is it still being negotiated? I've always wondered that. You see this in baseball a lot.

Funny to note that Smith is a McLoughan guy. Hmmm[emoji848]

Influence still in the building?

I’m trying to consider our alternatives, which were shitty. Cousins didnt want to be a Redskin, so keeping him would have required a tag. Not an acceptable solution.

Colt and a rookie? Not an acceptable solution.

Bridgewater coming off a knee? Bradford? Fragile his whole career.

I hate giving up Fuller, that’s a valuable piece. But if you asked me if I’d rather give Fuller and a 3rd for Smith, or go for one of these other bad options, I think I’d take Alex Smith.

Here’s why:

Smith INTs the last three years, 5, 8, 7. Cousins, 13, 12, 11.

Smith’s fumbles 2, 7, 4. Cousins, 13, 9, 9.

Let’s hope “sources” jumped the gun on Fuller.

Grant Paulsen tweeted that he’s been told it’s not Fuller.

Fucking great observation, I didn’t think of that.

Inside the 10 half of Smith's passes were TDs. KC was 1 in 3. Smith had 5 ints none in the red zone. KC had 3 in the red zone alone. Gruden can win with Smith.

By the way, an unappreciated piece of this news, it frees us to apply the tag to someone else. Increases the chances we can retain Zach Brown.

The only acceptable solution to me would have been going with a rookie but that’s such a big roll of the dice with not having a top 10 pick.

Maybe a trade for someone like McCarron I could have lived with too. I’m not a Bridgewater fan at all, Bradford’s injuries rule him out for me too. McCoy? Absolutely not.

Honestly I wasn’t even thinking seriously about Smith.
