Chiefs Agree To Trade For Alex Smith

Oct 21, 2014 3:42 AM

The Kansas City Chiefs have agreed to trade for Alex Smith with the San Francisco 49ers.

The deal cannot become official until Mar. 12.

The 49ers will get a No. 2 pick in this year's draft and a similar pick in 2014, according to a source that spoke with Tim Kawakami of the Mercury News.

Smith lost his job as starting quarterback of the 49ers to Colin Kaepernick following a concussion. Kaepernick quickly ended the controversy with several signature performances and eventually led the 49ers to an appearance in the Super Bowl.

With this bold trade, Andy Reid is clearly gambling his success with the Chiefs on the performance of Smith.

The Browns, Cardinals and Jaguars were the other teams believed to be interested in trading for Smith.

Chiefs Interested In Dealing For Nick Foles

Oct 31, 2014 6:37 AM

The Kansas City Chiefs are interested in trading for Nick Foles if he becomes available.

Andy Reid became head coach of the Chiefs this offseason and wants to add a quarterback.

Former NFL scout Daniel Jeremiah, now an NFL.com analyst, reported Reid and Chiefs offensive coordinator Doug Pederson, an assistant coach with the Eagles under Reid, "were very high on Nick Foles and his future."

The Chiefs own the No. 1 overall pick but are unlikely to use it on a quarterback.

Alex Smith is also a possibility for the Chiefs.
