Here is the challenge for you as an unabashed Alex Smith Apologist... provide another example of a team trading up 17 spots in the first round of the NFL Draft to draft a QB when they have a healthy 33 years old starting QB who is a "franchise QB".
I'll give you hint... teams that have a healthy 33 year old "franchise QB" do not actively look to replace their starting QB... and trading up 17 spots to draft a QB is the very definition of "actively looking to replace your starting QB".

The inescapable fact is that, regardless of what you think of Alex, if moving up for Mahomes is something no team with a solid QB would do, that makes Mahomes a desperation move and just extended our QB misery.
I don't believe that to be true. I believe that Dorsey identified Mahomes as a solid future for the position. And I believe that a lot of other teams agreed. If you want to twist that into a 'crush on Smith' it's just further evidence of your obsession.
