WFT Quarterback Thread - Post SEASON 2021

[Ohioskins]

Alex Smith's success is directly related to a defense that shut down some opponents. AS a QB, Smith did nothing other than throw short dump off passes except for an occasional deep throw to McLaurin. I do not belive there is a single team in this league that would have any interest in him. His comeback was a great story. But it is time to read the last page where it says "The End".

I could see him reuniting with Meyer in Jacksonville to be a mentor for Lawrence

I like that idea too

Yeah, that is what I was thinking. That's probably his best bet if they'll have him. The jury is still out though as to whether anyone is going to want him after seeing how he regressed down the stretch last year. If Urban won't take him, I think he has to realize it's over.

If he wanted to be a backup he would stay here. He wants to be a starter.

They will cut him June 1

I don't think you have to wait until June 1st, to designate him as a June 1 cut. Could be wrong. If true, might as well release him asap, don't see him back next year.

He's not staying here at his current cap #. Even if he restructured it's pretty doubtful we'd even want him back.

AS won games in both stints as our qb with teams that collectively the games where he did not play. I don't know what AS has left in him, but i don't see the incessant need by some to belittle the success we had with him as qb. The leg injury sucked for him and us, but he had all the skills to lead a team and win games. I hope he finds peace after football because it clearly is one of his anchors that he can't let go.

Alex Smith was broken last year. It got to the point where he couldn't move two feet in the pocket without falling down. I don't know that anyone is incessantly belittling the success WFT had in his starts. I think people are just pointing out that the team won in spite of his presence on the field. Those wins were championed by the defense, coupled with just playing bad teams with mostly backup QBs. I think a healthy Kyle Allen or Heinicke could have had this team on the same run or better.

Love Alex Smith, but he was not the same Alex Smith, and after that injury it's a little self-centered for him to think this new coaching staff owed him the opportunity to see if he could play football again.
