Oh Boy

Alex Smith negotiating with the Dolphins. It seems the story is Alex Smith was insulted by the 3 year 24 million offer the Niners made. His side didn't respond. Then the Niners started pursuing Manning, now losing out to the Broncos. Now Smith is talking with the Dolphins (who would be dumb to sign him - how much is he an upgrade over Matt Moore, honestly?). I don't know how I feel about all this. Smith should be rewarded for his good work last year, but let's be honest, the guy has already pocketed a ton of money from the Niners that he didn't quite earn in his rookie contract. Now to come back and be insulted with the 3 year offer? I don't know. He played bravely in the Saints game, but didn't look like a world beater. Then in the Giants game, he didn't exactly lose it for us, but he didn't exactly win it for us, either. I'd like Smith to be the QB next year (although I must admit a tinge of excitement for the Peyton possibility) and see what he can do. Either way, we seem to be developing Colin Kaepernack for the future anyway...tough call all around.
