Really didn't think it was possible for me to admire him more.

Wish we could get him on our team/staff
Originally posted by Dshearn:Originally posted by PhillyNiner:Sucked is being really unfair. He got two teams to the Playoffs and nearly had the Redskins of all teams looking respectable. Is he great? no....but he is good. Our own disfunction when he was here set him back a lot.
Smith was a project, that should have been a second or third rounder.
The 49ers should have never benched Rattay and put Smith in that early. Young QBs only have so much "media and fan forgiveness" before people become critical of them. Rattay was a throw away QB...he could have let him take the abuse that year and just groomed Smith up, so at least when he hit the field he knew what the heck he was looking at. I don't think you will find any other number one pick QB that averaged under 100 yards a game and only had 1 TD his rookie season.
Smith never stood a chance under Nolan.
Ill always remember how the 49ers seemed to do everything wrong with Smith's career, and yet the dude was a class act. Time after time he was the bigger man, and often it seemed the only adult in the room. I was highly critical of his performance, but in hindsight... we could not have asked for a more "49er" 49er. I particularly remember the contract of the Farve-Rodgers handover of power....and Farve going out of his way to not let Rodgers take his Job, versus Smith doing everything in his power to make sure Kap did not have to suffer like he did.
Hindsight tells us, Smith should not have been rated that high as a project, it also tells us Nolan never deserved a QB like Smith. I am glad Smith was able to vindicate his career. I really hope he rides off into the sunset and finds happiness outside of playing football. He has nothing left to prove.
I would be stoked if he came back as a coach or mentor.

Maybe. Which reminds me and is off topic.
It should've been Alex vs Leinart in the championship imo. I think between the Alex, Urban Meyer combo, not to mention Utah's stout D, they could've given them a run.

17 leg surgeries and he still wants to play.
Yeah, he's a warrior
Agreed. Great dude and a strong will to recover. Still always sucked at QB.

We have had that discussion multiple times. That is not what this thread is about. If you want to stay in NFL Talk, there will be no more of that hyperbole.
