ALEX SMITH and moving forward.

Rypien to Monk, Clark, and Sanders. So special.

Kirk's DVOA ranked 13th without pressure and 18th with.

Alex's ranked 6th without pressure and 6th with pressure.

Interesting read, not sure what to read into it if anything but I definitely like it. (and it is certainly no less poignant than a Spaight pff stat.)

I was bored and wanted to create a slide so here u go https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180712/f314b6ce1b534186e1f17c502af9371e.jpg

Hadn't seen this quote from AS about what he said to his agent, but I love it:

“It’s a [expletive]-ton of money, man,” Smith says now, with a chuckle. “Haggling over $2 million more or something? Nah. I’ve played a long time. Let’s get fair market value and let’s go. Get it done.”

I just want the Alex Smith of last year, not the one that didn't throw a td to a wr for an entire season.

Pretty sure AS and Gruden are gonna get the ball to whoever is healthy enough to catch it.

alex smith often doesnt .... Let plays develop. He is quick to get the ball out to the short man. He comes off of his progressions way too fast, and often moves off of his primary or initial secondary target right before that player breaks open. Its maddening.

Regardless, year after year, alex is below average at 3rd down conversion rate relative to his peers.

High completion percentage. High passer rating. Low conversion percentage. Unfortunately, the conversion rate is the important part, and alex has never been good at that.

IT DOESN'T MATTER, what he doesn't

Unfortunately, what he doesnt often overshadows what he does. Which is why two teams moved on from him in the middle of playoff runs.

Wait until Mahomes is out of the NFL in 4 years and Smith is still playing.

I think Mahomes is the real deal, kid has all the tools to be a good QB. That being said Alex is still in his prime and will be very good for another 3-4 years. SF moved on from him because they thought they hit the jackpot with CK, believe me they regretted it before landing JG.
