I'm not worried about where Alex goes, even if Arizona. Arizona doesn't have a dominant offensive line or run game.
Not so much about how to improve their offense, but how to shut down our offense.
Smith >> Adam Snyder in that regard.

The following teams could REALISTICALLY have interest in Alex for next season:
Buffalo - Cheaper and better than Fitzpatrick, offense is (or should be) run based with Jackson and Spiller.
Jets - A great fit, a team that is supposed to be built on defense and the run game. No QB currently who should ever start in the NFL.
Jacksonville - Gabbert is a bust and Henne is serviceable, but not at Alex's level. Again, with MJD they have a solid run game.
Cleveland - Their rookie is 30 and has not been special. Good young run game and solid D. A QB like Alex would have win them 3-4 more games this season.
Kansas City - No QBs on the roster. Solid run game. Inconsistent D but with some real talent (Hali, Berry)
Philadelphia - Foles isn't ready. Vick is a wreck. New HC could bring in a guy they think will steady the ship.
Minnesota - Ponder has looked shaky. AP+Harvin+a qb who takes care of the ball would be an interesting group. Likely not willing to give up on Ponder yet.
Arizona - They've tried 3 QBs and all have failed. They've seen Alex carve them up. And don't forget - Alex knows every nuance of the Niner system. Adding him to a division rival gives them a huge advantage. Could probably yell the upcoming play to the defense while the Niner O is shifting around.
SD, Dallas, Oakland, Tennessee, Baltimore, Miami, St Louis, and Seattle are unlikely to give up on their current QBs, either because they are viewed as franchise guys having down years or young guys with big upside.
The other 15 teams all have young guys they love or franchise guys in place - Brady, Dalton, Ben, Schaub, Luck, Manning 1 and 2, Rodgers, Stafford, Cutler, Ryan, Brees, Freeman, Newton, RG3
Still, assuming that Kaep doesn't fall down (I actually think he will) and Smith is released as a cap casualty (or forces his way out), one of those first 8 teams will very likely have him starting under center next season (barring a major shakeup in SD, Dallas, or Baltimore).

Seems like a reasonable statement.

He should've stated his case vs the Giants.

Virtually nobody put together that much of a case iirc.

I think he stated it with a 104 QBR. Obviously, that wasn't good enough.

I'm not trying to slam the guy, I'm just saying that technically he could've made a stronger statement with his play. He left plenty to desire and it's hard to argue that.

Considering what Palmer got, I'd agree.
