[quote=Buffalo Bob;1220036]If Keenum was any good he would not be on his sixth team by the age of 30. He also had double digit fumbles last year.[/quote]

I concur....there's a reason why Keenum went undrafted.....and he's a journeyman quarterback...he's somewhere near a poor man's Tony Romo and a rich man's Jeff Garcia.....

Garcia is a 4x Pro Bowler.


Keenum is a rich man's Uncle Rico.

Agreed. Both are low-end starting NFL QBs. They can get us through 2019, but after that, we either need to start a young guy we draft in 2019/2020 or hope Alex Smith is back (unlikely).

In 2020 Alex will be 36 years old, his career is most likely done. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if he retired at some point in 2019.

I think that is almost certainly what will happen, and I hope it does. If i recall correctly, if he never plays football again due to his injury, we get a $10-12MM salary cap credit due to an insurance policy the team took out.

I hope so, also why would he risk playing again? This team isn't a contender anytime soon

True.....Garcia played in a slightly different NFL when defenders were a little slower and defenses weren't blitzing as much as they do now.

Jason La Canfora is saying now that it is unlikely that Alex Smith ever plays again. I wonder if he has heard some sort of rumbling from a team source / something?

I’d imagine he has heard it from a close source
