I'll trust Mayock's opinion on the situation:
"I am bullish on Alex Smith because I read you guys a list of quarterbacks early on, and, you know, there's only eight or ten franchise guys in the league,” Mayock said. “If Alex Smith isn't one of them, he's just kind of a notch below, and that's better than most of the other teams around the league. I could name you half the league that needs a quality starting quarterback. So I believe the Chiefs are ahead of most of the teams. I think you've got to be careful for what you wish for because it may come true.”

'Less than a 50/50 proposition' is non-zero, son.
'At most, 2 seasons' leaves open the possibility that he's here in 2018.
He will NOT be here in 2019, no. Because if the Chiefs can't get a guy they like in the first this year, I do think they'll do something like grab Peterman or Webb in the 3rd; a guy they might try to develop or might be willing to move on from if they like the 2018 draftee better. And if they don't get a high end guy in 2017 or 2018, they'll run with the mid-round pick in 2019.
Smith's gone in 2 years and very possibly in 1.
