| Alex Smith and Matt Flynn (Posted on 1/13/13 at 3:36 pm)
Is it safe to assume both of these guys will be traded in the offseason? If so, where will these guys end up? I can see the Chiefs trading for Smith and the Jaguars trading for Flynn. The Jets also make sense for both, but they will take a huge cap hit by cutting Sanchez.

Probably. Both decent quarterbacks, and a lot of teams need an upgrade. Their current teams aren't going to pay that kind of money to a backup. And it's a weak draft class at the quarterback position so teams needing a new QB will be more inclined to trade for one.

Who would go to the Jets? The damn coach has a tat of his failed QB? No way I would put myself in that situation

I bet Ryan sticks with Sanchez another year.

That rookie is better than more than half of the starters in the NFL today. Russel Wilson is amazing.

I don't think they are that worried about Flynn.

Why? Carson Palmer isn't the problem on the Raiders. In fact, their passing game is the ONLY thing that the Raiders are even decent at.

Smith will most likely be cut because he's due a big roster bonus on April 1st I think. Nobody is going to give up anything for him knowing that.

Because it's the raiders and they don't think about those things when making personnel decisions.
