I think it would have depended on two factors:If we had signed Alex Smith as an unrestricted free agent this offseason for 4/$94 with $71 guaranteed, would people be pleased with the deal? I honestly don't know.
- how big the Garropolo/Cousins contracts end up being when all is said and done
- what WAS does with the FA $ they saved to improve the team around Smith
WAS did a great job signing both Zach Brown and Swearinger last year. If they ink Brown long term and use some money to add another value FA like those two there's every reason to think WAS could be .500 or better in 2018. The tough part will be overcoming the losses of both Breeland and Fuller in the secondary and that will be tough to do on the cheap.
