Alex Smith has that "Garrard Factor" and I hope this board doesn't develop a chubby for Smith like they did for Garrard.
Just like Garrard, Smith will put up a few solid games, like 19-for-32, 245 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT, & a few scrambles for 33 yds too. Then someone will post that he is "underrated" bc he averages 15.3 FP per start or something. I'm sure some FBG staffer will write an article citing Smith as one of the "10 Best Value Picks" bc he falls to the 12th round. Nah.
The bottom line, just like Garrard, is that Alex Smith is not really a factor in fantasy football. His NFL career isn't safe. His job will never be locked-throw-away-the-key because he mixes in a lot of 217-yard/1-TD/3-INT games. If you drafted him for "value" in the 11th round and stuck him in your lineup when your starter (Romo, Brady, etc) is idle, that's the week Smith will go 217/1/3. And you lose that week.
I want to rev up a QB Value Bandwagon on Stafford. At least we don't know if he sucks yet. Alex Smith sucks.
