This trade likely will rank like the Portis/Bailey trade. We got a little bit of a short stick but the player we got will be a good teammate for the rest of his NFL career, and except in this case the player who was the fly in the ointment was KC instead of Bailey.

Where do I get my Alex Smith jersey :

Yeah, no way to please all sides with how this QB situation was going to end...no matter what the solution. I think I like Alex Smith's cap hit much more than I would have liked KC's. Let's lock up Zach Brown now, Davenport in round 1, OL in round 2...
