good rotoworld summaries-

A high-priced perennial underachiever, Bowe has finally worn out his welcome in Kansas City. Finding the root of Bowe's struggles is like the chicken and egg argument: it's hard to tell if Bowe fared poorly because of Alex Smith or if it was the other way around. Either way, there's no way anyone is trading for Bowe at his $10.75 million salary. He'll hit free agency soon.

They needed the cap room to fit in Ben Grubbs and Jeremy Maclin, among others. Going on age 31, Bowe becomes a top-five free agent wide receiver, joining Percy Harvin, Michael Crabtree, Stevie Johnson, and Kenny Britt. Unfortunately for him, that won't necessarily amount to much guaranteed on the open market. Bowe is coming off a 60-754-0 season in Kansas City. It's not entirely on Bowe, but he's gone 17 straight games without a touchdown catch

let see

Bowe had 3 1000+ yard season in the 5 years before Smith got there (and 995 yards in one of those seasons)

Smith has never been in the top half of th league in passing yards, and has only thrown more the 20 touchdowns once.

This isn't a chicken and the egg. This is the wheel and the car.

Any WR with multiple 1000 yard seasons with the QBs that Bowe has had is pretty decent.
