Source: Chiefs to acquire Alex Smith
ESPN.com news services | February 27, 2013
The San Francisco 49ers have agreed to trade quarterback Alex Smith to the Kansas City Chiefs, a league source confirmed to ESPN.com's John Clayton.

Terms of the trade, which can't officially be completed until March 12 when the 2013 league year begins, weren't immediately available.

The trade agreement was first reported by Fox Sports' Jay Glazer on Twitter.

Smith, the 2005 No. 1 overall draft pick, lost his starting job to Colin Kaepernick while sitting out with a concussion but was professional at every turn and continued to mentor his replacement.

Before his injury, Smith had completed 26 of his last 28 passes -- including going 18-of-19 for 232 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in a "Monday Night Football" win at Arizona on Oct. 29.

He then sustained a concussion in the second quarter of the 49ers' next game, a 24-24 tie against St. Louis on Nov. 11. Smith sat out the next game as Kaepernick dazzled in his debut as an NFL starter, beating the Bears handily at home on "Monday Night Football." Smith didn't start again last season.

The 28-year-old quarterback has thrown for 14,280 yards with 81 touchdowns and 63 interceptions in 80 career games.

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

+1. San Francisco just played KC like a violin, with Reid and Dorsey holding the sheet music.

This is the dumbest trade since KC got Matt Cassel.

Matt Cassel 2.0

Had a feeling the Geno worshipers would be whining today when I heard the news forget the fact he has taken a team to the NFC title game his name isn't Geno so we have to whine and say he's Cassel.

And I had a feeling the same old blind Chiefs' faithful who were satisfied with the Matt Cassel pickup would be satisfied with this move.

It's cool. The 49ers will turn our pick into Revis and the Raiders will get a franchise QB in Geno. Whatever, I'm over it.

The only way I'd be halfway satisfied with this nonsense is if they have a partner who wants to trade up to #1 for Geno.
