The 49ers drafted Alex Smith 1t overall in 2005. He was a massive bust for 7 straight seasons before Jim Harbaugh saved his career. Smith was then benched for Colin Kaepernick, traded to the Chiefs, and traded again because of Patrick Mahomes. In Washington Smith suffered one of the worst leg injuries we've ever seen, but he returned winning comeback player of the year. From Bust to comeback Alex Smith might be the unluckiest player in NFL history. #alexsmith #chiefs #49ers #commanders #washington #nfldraft #nflbust #busts #smith #quarterback #comeback

Great bro 😂 😊
Bro, he had a better career than you! LOL!
Patrick Mahomes speaks highly of him for his willingness to mentor him even though Smith knew Mahomes was drafted to replace him.
Constant professional.
And because of that, He’ll ALWAYS have a home and never have to pay for a beer 🍻 in KC.
{Kc> 4 LyFe.
The Smith years are what brought KC back to relevancy again, what kicked off the run they're having now. His comeback from the injury, wow, all the time he spent in the hospital, wondering if he'd keep his leg, to if he would stay alive. All the time in rehab, mentally tough guy. I remember watching Aaron Donald jump on his back and yell out, no dude, noooooo!!! Was happy to see him retire.
😂🎉😢❤❤❤😊🎉❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉@@viccrown8188
Started as a bust, but ended up with a respectable career, shedding the bust label. Probably ends up in the middle to lower top tiers of #1 overall picks
Facts.
He had a LOT of seasons of games, that no QBs drafted in the first round will ever get anymore.
sounds like something someone would say if they never actually looked at Smiths stats. dudes good for 16 TDs a year. those numbers wouldnt even survive a preason let alone 10+ seasons as a starter.
@@shmoga "sounds like something someone would say if"...1. You sound like a dick. 2. You sound like someone who never watched him. Stats aren't an accurate reflection of the reality of his career. Lets not forget his contributions off the field, like mentoring oh, what his name.. Patrick Mahomes (who most likely makes your team look amateurish). His stats did survive a season, lots of them, AND he was a starter.
I mean even if he was as good as he was in his peak, it’d still be really disappointing for a first overall pick
As a chiefs fan I'll never forget Alex Smith 🥲
Same🫡
Same as a Niners fan
A qb so good he was able to remove his bust label and bring some degree of success to 3 different franchises
People forget that the 49ers organization that Alex Smith was drafted into was a mess. He went through a new Offensive Coordinator almost every year. If Aaron Rodgers was drafted into this team, his career would've had the same trajectory
That’s a huge assumption.. you have a lot to learn about life
No
Doubtful. You don’t know shit about my team. Gtfoh
I feel like Arron has too much natural talent for this to have happened but if you said Tom Brady I would've totally agreed with you.
@@user-nc2ws5ed9b Your saying that like you don't. We all have a lot to learn about life, period.
Old guy here. When you are drafted overall #1 pick, you have unbelievable expectations that almost no one can live up to. If based on his entire career versus #1 pick, then yes he is a bust. But when you factor in ALL his accomplishments, on the field and off, he is the ultimate QB.
If you’re a KC fan or a Washington Redskin fan, you’ll never say he’s a bust. The man had guts and determination.
I attribute a lot of Mahomes' success to Smith's mentorship.
Redskins here
Bust? No. Thankful? Yes. But he's an example of a quarterback with a limited ceiling who could never take our team beyond mediocrity. Cousins is the same, and he's easily the best QB we've had since the early 90s.
Ironically, he'd have easily won the Super Bowl on the Niners if he replaced Jimmy G. He wasn't bad, but he wasn't a team-elevator like Mahomes, Peyton Manning, Rodgers, Brady, or the other big names. He's that cusp of greatness that isn't legendary but absolutely isn't bad either.
Niners fan-- Smith was hardly a bust. He was a very, very good QB at literally every stop in his career and only "wasn't living to expectations" in the early years of the Niners organization being a clown show.
@@songsayswhatagreed. Even Mahomes has said he owes his success to watching Alex for a year
I'm a niner fan and I would never call Alex Smith a bust. Looked like it after first four years but niners were terrible and new OC every year. Once he got a good coach in jim harbaugh Alex turned into one of more efficient QBs in the league. Towards end of his niners tenure he had a great 10 or so game streak that he had highest QBs in league over that span second place being TB12. Alex then got injured and the Colin kapnick thing went down.
People forget that RGIII wasn't the only QB the Redskins did dirty
I don't think you looked into the whole story of RG3.
He had a goated coaching staff (multiple SB winning coaches and the rest are all playoff team head coaches now).
After his injury he worked with the owner to force the offense to play a different way and to hinder the coaches... He screwed himself. He wasn't forced to play injured he wanted to.
Agreed, and their Medical staff was criminal, missed Trent's cancer for years and what they did to Alex...🤢
The problem with the Redskins was a complete top down culture issue… perfect example of having all the talent (both coaching and players) and coming nowhere near their potential. Dan Synder cursed the team
@@feedcentral6854 its a bit of a cultural thing ? Sleaze ball = winner on E. Coast I think. Ideally you turn off the "screw everyone" tendency with your own team/employees but that's NOT how most roll, sadly.
@@Ryan-wx1biThis is all true. But at the same time, RG3 knew he wasn't the same.
Chiefs fans remember him for guiding us out of the quarterbackless wilderness we'd been in for almost a decade since Trent Green left. So starved we were at the time for just average QB play. Then he might have been the perfect mentor to the greatest QB ever.
Alex will always have a special place in my fandom for bringing a winning ethos back to KC. Then to have the mentality of a grown ass man and help mentor Mahomes... what a guy.
I swear I knew andy was gone go get this mfer before it happened. When we went a whole damn season with no wr td, damnit that was it for me. I couldn't WAIT for alex to leave, real talk. He's a nice guy, stand up guy... all dat. But I nvr wanted him on chiefs. The best thing he ever did for me was tutor mahomes.
@@KamauTheQuietWarya He was throwing to Jamaal Charles who lined up as a WR all the time and Travis. It's a stupid stat in Andy's offense because positions don't mean as much. I mean Cheetah would run the same routes even out of the backfield that Charles did when he would line up back there. Also JC might have been the best back in football not named Chris Johnson for his abbreviated career and their career numbers are eerily similar.
When you have no talent at WR you throw it other people. Literally nobody could or can do what Pat has done these two years with this dogwater WR group. I give Alex a pass. He was making Pro Bowls and won a playoff game. From where we had been he was light years better.
Alex Smith was a consummate professional, the exact type of QB id want in my film room as a player or coach.
Smith is a textbook case of how you can ruin a player’s career with bad coaches and management. It’s to his credit (and Andy Reid) that he was able to piece together a respectable career.
No Alex Smith means no Patrick Mahomes
Are you implying that he's the reason we're in this current situation?
Alex Smith is the Sarah Connor to Patrick Mahomes' John Connor.
He’s part of the reason, admitting that doesn’t take away from mahomes legacy, and he would be the first guy to credit smith for guys influence anyways. What’s the harm?
@@alextomasek1829yes yes he is
@@alextomasek1829 yeah man didn't you know without Alex Smith mahomes would be in the xfl right now no way Andy Reid molded mahomes 😂
Alex Smith is legitimately my favorite player who never played for my favorite team (Eagles fan here). Became a fan of his during that final pre-Harbaugh season, cause I'm always a fan of the players that are able to come back from disastrous starts - I'm always thinking "oh, if they were somewhere else or had a different teacher, they'd do better", even if that clearly isn't the case for some.
Then he goes on to do really well with Harbaugh, gets traded to a team coached by my team's old coach, does really well there, and is able to basically shed off most of the early year criticism. Even when he was with Washington, I couldn't help but root for him to have good games.
I’m sorry but Alex Smith is not a bust.
Watch the video first before commenting.
@AlanRoyJuicegate We don't have to. Perna is the most predictable creator on the planet.
@@ThemanwhosaidsorryI know the history of Alex Smiths career, nothing he says is going to change the facts.
He was the definition of a bust for the 6 straight seasons.
@@thatsgoodsportsand after he got good coaching support he flourished, so how was it his fault?
I loved Alex Smith as a Redskin fan. He's not spectacular, but he will do just enough to win, but most importantly he won't loose you the game. He' the definition of competent.
Yes! That’s the kind of QB I like. Keeping possession > arm talent
I didn't see the Alex Smith injury when it happened, but I do remember it going from "your season is over" to "your career might be over" to "we might have to amputate your leg or you may die".
Thanks for recording this one. Alex is a superb human being and really deserved a sympathetic look. We Chiefs fans really owe him a great debt of gratitude both for his excellent play and for his mentoring of Patrick Mahomes. I really appreciate you sharing this view of his career.
he was pretty decent i think
DJCOOK WATCHES THATSGOODSPORTS?????
After year 6 he was. Also hello!
Ong bro is not a bust he helped mahomes hella
This is like the assembling of the avengers rn
DJJJ
Alex Smith is forever a Chiefs legend for helping Mahomes develop. Thank you Mr. Smith!
As a Chiefs fan, and as a fan of humans, I love the respect Alex Smith gets around the league. By all accounts I've read/seen/heard, he is a stand up guy who worked insanely hard to overcome adversity time and time again. He deserves the praise!
Also love me some Perna; the Chiefs inspired crying brought me here, and the unbiased analysis keeps me coming back.
Thank you for this video Perna. As a hardcore Chiefs fan I will always appreciate Alex Smith for giving us stability at QB and for improving the culture at KC from one of losing to one of winning. I was emotional when we traded him, emotional when he was injured and emotional when he returned. Alex Smith will always be one of my favorite QBs and I appreciate everything he did for the Chiefs.
I've never seen anyone lose their mind so fast during the KC part of this video, Mahomes definitely is Perna's nightmare
The bed for your daughter is adorable. Dude is a great parent
Alex is one of my favorite players of all time. What he overcame to find success is remarkable.
As a niner fan, I felt so bad for Smith since he kept having to deal with changes in head coaches and offensive coordinators. And he had a bad o-line where a lot of the time Vernon Davis was the best pass block when he should've been catching passes and getting YAC. I remember the first game he played with the chiefs against the niners in SF he got a standing ovation and a lot of love from the fans.
We judge busts by their entire body of work. Smith ultimately had a respectable career. I haven't met a 49er fan that dislikes him--plus, coming back from that injury he deserves every bit of credit he gets.
We judge busts on multiple variables. Sports aren’t a guarantee and that’s what makes it so interesting. You can have an amazing run in college, get drafted and just not pan out.. or there’s a litany of injuries that sap their athletic abilities. We’ve concluded players are busts on less than their “body of work”
I know he’s beloved by Chiefs Kingdom. Even during his ‘bust’ era in San Francisco, I never thought he was one. He seemed like a decent QB who was in a shitty situation of constant coaching changes & little support. I’m glad he finally got a chance to show what he could do with a stable organization.
He was also the #1 overall pick and never at any point played like a #1 pick so thats a bust to me. You cant just be ok as the #1 pick. You need to be an elite level qb and Alex Smith was never that
We definitely do not judge draft busts on their entire body of work. What matters is draft position vs benefit for the team that drafted the player. If Zach Wilson or Sam Darnold go on to be decent with another team, that doesn’t make them not a massive bust disaster for the Jets. Alex Smith might not be remembered as a bust by casuals, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t a bust for the niners.
"Haven't met a Niners fan who dislikes him."
That's true NOW. But as a niners fan, that was less true back in 2010, when we were all ready to run him out of town. That he wanted to stay is a testament to who he is as a person. That he turned it around that year and got those same fans to cheer him on is a testament to who he is as a player (Yes, Harbaugh helped. But Smith still had to make the throws).
Broncos would be a contender with Alex Smith
I know you hate the Chiefs, but he means a lot to us.. Smith is a great guy
Kinda of a Chad henne type of guy to the chiefs. Always a important part of the comeup
@Will_i_amfr Henne is my all-time favorite Chiefs back up.. we don't win some playoff games if it weren't for Henne
@@taylorgant1209 swear. Every time he went on I wasn’t super worried. Always felt like we still had a good chance, and he really did do everything we asked him to do and then some. Shame he retired, happy he got a ring
@Will_i_amfr Yes, he deserves it for sure.
I love to hear Perna say nice things about a Chiefs quarterback ; )
Underwhelming sure, but definitely not a bust.
Watch the video
You dare mock me for thinking I would forget the number 1 draft pick out of Utah, my alma mater and the 2020 comeback player of the year who was one of the few moments of goodness in the hellscape that was the pandemic and lead the WFT to the playoffs because the NFC East was the peak of comedy that year?"
You mean 2020 Alex Smith Award (seriously just name the trophy after him)
Can we all just stop and appreciate how good of a father this man is.
Alex Smith isn't a bust
He had a rough career until Harbaugh got there but he was a good QB for many years
Should probably watch the video before you comment.
He was still a first pick qb that never was a franchise guy. A bust
@@petey2931 I was about to say lol. Like this is literally what the video said, but I guess the title didn't really help much.
Ya may want to watch the video
@@DiamondDust132 I mean the title does say “draft bust” and not “overall bust” 😂
He didn’t live up to the hype, but he was always middle of the pack QB
He was not always a middle of the pack QB. His career high passer rating was 75 on his rookie deal. Year 5 and 6 he was mediocre, then he became average in year 7 with Harbaugh before going to KC and becoming a solid middle of the pack QB.
He is a better person than Aaron Rodgers.
@@thomasdeas1941 That is what is called a "low bar." And that is no knock on Smith. Rodgers is beneath contempt.
Not living up to the hype is kinda what a bust is… bust just sounds so horrible. Many busts aren‘t bad players. They just don‘t live up to the expectations
@@donaldwesterhazy9333you don’t even know the guy, it’s pretty small minded to judge someone based off media coverage
I was surprised no one tried to call him last year and give him a workout. Wife probably wouldn't want him to risk what is left of his leg.
The Balls Deep segments are consistently some of my favorite segments on RUclips. Great job Mr. Perna!
Love u perna stuck in hospital and nothing to do and u post a video right in time
Get better!
Hang in there! Sending out my best wishes for a quick recovery🫡👍
As a Steelers fan Alex Smith cost us from a 12-0 start when he was with the Washington
I loved seeing the clips of Alex killing my lobos 😂 good picks Perna
Lol, I really enjoyed the highlights of all those Chiefs playoff failures as well🤣🙁
As a Chiefs fan since the early 90's, I will never forget Alex. He was a shining light that brought honor back to our organization. He paved the road for Patrick to succeed and achieve more than any of us thought he could. Thank you Alex.
its truly sad how Alex Smith Busted, and if you look at the odds many of these young men in this years draft are gonna bust, its really crazy how big some guys bust, busting is just first nature for top NFL prospects i guess
Alex Smith cliff notes
First 6 years: missed a season, and only played one full season. Losing record each of 5 seasons.
Next 9 seasons: winning record each year, 3 Pro Bowls and Comeback Player of the Year
Hot Take: if the 49ers played Smith in the Superbowl, they would've won.
The 28-3 joke reminded me - I was in New Orleans recently and while walking around looking for a place to eat I noticed a "28-3" flag hanging from a balcony
New Orleans Saints fans: some of the best haters in the game
I never knew what dink and dunk meant when Ben Roethlisberger claimed the Steelers needed to stop doing it. Then I saw an Alex Smith game
As a fellow Broncos fan, I felt that unhinged moment about Mahomes deep in my soul
Objectively he was bust. Subjectively, I will always remember 11 handing the ball to 25.
Hey Perna! Just wanted to say your videos brighten my day, keep it up!
How can I forget Alex?? One of the best wins I ever see my beloved Niners pull was that game against the Saints, so he will live in my memory rent free for as long as I live!
I love you guys, and the fact that nobody remembers how bad Alex Smith was for his 1st 6 seasons might make him the most forgotten Draft Bust ever lol.
don't let em get to you ! you made solid points
As a Seahawks fan, oh I remember…. WE WERE BOTH GARBAGE AT THAT TIME!!!!
When you're right, you're right. Don't let rose-tinted nostalgia for the back half of his career make you question your reasoning.
Even in his peak smith wasn’t a #1 overall pick level qb
I'm sorry, but that's just a dumb take. You don't make multiple pro bowls and be a bust. I'm not saying he was ever elite, or even great. But he was far from a bust.
I remember Alex Smith had to throw to Dwayne Bowe who just didn’t like the end zone.
😂😂😂
Did not play with Dwane.
@@kurtkloster856 Someone doesn't know their shit. He had two whole seasons with him (2013-2014). The 2013 and 2014 Chiefs offenses were awful to watch, especially because of Dwayne Bowe.
I mean he led the league in receiving touch downs with Matt cassle throwing to him in 2010…
That Mahomes outburst was absolutely hilarious. 😂😆 Dude is a riot! 🤘
Fun Fact: the Metal structure that kept Smith's leg Together is converted into Lombardi-Shaped Trophy and gifted to Alex.
Whaaat
There’s no forgetting my goat before we got mahomes 🙋🏾
Good arguments here. I've been thinking it for a few years now. Conventional knowledge used to be that the QB position is too complicated to start in right away. But that changed like 15 years ago and now instead of developing anyone we just cast them aside and draft a new QB and repeat. How many good qbs got shafted?
Always great content, and damm that was the best ad I’ve seen in years. I watched the whole thing, now I think Bear Mattress is worth a look.
I’m not even shopping for a mattress.
He definitely wasn’t a bust
Mahomes sneaks his way into yet another unrelated football topic. god DAMMIT.
Brandon “Patrick Mahomes is my sleep paralysis demon” Perna 😂
Not "unrelated". As Perna explained, Smith was replaced by Mahomes. And, though he knew Mahomes was going to replace him, he mentored him very well. And Mahomes was the reason he went to Washington. Hardly "unrelated" to the story.
@@mathewfullerton8577 oh man, thank you so much. now I understand.
Man, that was a fantastic video, Dude! Nice job.
Great video. Alex's comeback from THAT is one of the mannest man things to ever man things to ever man...man
Fuckin A, man.
Wouldn’t call him a bust, just disappointing
When your team can’t draft for crap it happens
thats what a bust is
@@BroncosCountry58 A bust is someone who never pulls it together. To the ones he drafted, he's a bust, to KC, he is a hero who prepared Mahomes for the top level, to the Commanders, he's a decent QB who got brutally injured.
It definitely depends on who you talk to is how you get an opinion of people
@@BroncosCountry58 not necessarily. A disappointment is a term that I use for players that never live up to expectations, whereas busts are so bad that they tank an entire franchise and do NOTHING. Dissapointments succeed more than busts
@@BroncosCountry58 He played many years, not a bust by any measurement.
Anyone who comes back from that injury is not a bust
Thank you for this video, Brandon. Smith will forever be a legend in KC. He helped make the Chiefs relevant and competitive again. And he was not only the mentor that Mahomes needed, but the one he deserved. Thank you, Alex, for everything.
I still have that little jersey of him they gave away at Burger King lol
The sheer amount of people commenting to disagree on a 24 minute video within 2 minutes of the video's release is...interesting lol
Much like a bunch of today's society, respond reactionary as if you were personally attacked.
People are disagreeing with the premise of the video, you don't need to hear the whole thing to know why "bust" doesn't accurately describe Alex Smith's pro career. Busts don't make pro bowls
@manwithnewname if you watched the video then you would know that "Alex Smith was a bust" was not the premise of the video. It's about how he shirked the bust label after a rough start.
@@bigfat4172 did you watch him play? he was good enough to be the 49ers starter for years. For a 1st ovr pick he was disappointing for sure but you can't decide who's a draft bust from their rookie season. By year 4 he was solid. Aside from Aaron Rodgers he was probably the best QB drafted that year.
@@manwithnewname who are you talking to lol? I didn't say anything about Smith sucking. I love Alex Smith.
Love the channel. Keep up the awesome work!
Was really surprised by the title because I remember him as being a threat, glad you like him, he's a talented and courageous person
99-67-1 isn’t a bust! You and the broncos would literally die for a Denver Qb to finish with a record like that
Dude was 38-36-1 in San Francisco. Most people count someone a bust if they did basically nothing for the team they were drafted to. 81 TDs and 63 interceptions in 6 seasons + a missed season due to injury is not good. So tell me, is a average of 14 TDs, 10 interceptions, and 2,380 pass yards across 6 seasons good? No, it’s horrible. This guy was the 1st pick and all he did for the 49ers was get them a 2nd round pick from KC
Dan Marino never won a Super Bowl and only got there once so he was a bust. There’s your next video
It's pretty interesting that the two young QBs Alex mentored ended up in super bowls. He absolutely had a positive role in helping Kaepernick and Mahomes develop. While Smith did displayed well earned frustration at times, there really never was a single moment where any of us thought "what a diva". He genuinely seems like a good dude, and I don't think anyone in the world got a bigger cheer than the moment he decided to wear an Aarold Donald vest and walked away just fine. Who is more resilient than Smith? Honestly can't think of anyone.
great vid, would love to see top 10 picks of each draft year and give like 2-3 minutes per person.
Yall are saying he wasn’t a bust but he was a first overall pick. First overall picks are not supposed to be journeymen
Alex Smith is by no means a bust.
Thanks for doing this on Alex Smith. Class act and did amazing recovery. Yes, you are right, there are many of teams, and organizations that have thrown rookie QBs the the wolves and many of them did not make it out alive.
Alex had a higher ceiling than 9ers fans got to see. He had to essentially change programs like, every season. He’d be a great quarterback coach
There were some tough years with Alex as a niners fan but dude was always a warrior and was incredibly level headed. Hated how his time ended with the team
As a Chiefs fan my whole life this video almost brought me to tears, will always love Alex and appreciate everything he embodies and everything he did for everyone around him, truly a special human being
Great video! Just wanted to say thanks for the awesome content, so, thanks!
22:44 "And that's why Smith will always be one of my favorite quarterbacks to ever play."
Did not expect that, Perna. Good stuff.
I dunno if Alex Smith was a bust. He struggled until Harbaugh came to San Fran and after that he had consistent success with Andy Reid. I guess you could argue he was because he was first overall, but i wouldn’t because i think it’s an unfair label. When i think of bust i think of guys like Ryan Leaf or Zach Wilson, I would call Alex Smith’s career underwhelming or average instead of bust
The Tim Tebow clips never stop to amaze or inspire me
I place Geno Smith in a similar category. Some players legit just need a lot more time maybe bouncing around a bit before they fully bloom as players.
Perna, we may not agree on a lot of things, but we definitely agree on this! Thank you
as first picks go he didnt live up to the hype, but he was still a good starter for about a decade and a half.
Might be something I mention in this video lol
Alex Smith is such a stand up guy. He deserved a standing ovation to finish his career. He wasn’t the greatest of all time but he certainly is a great person and I’m happy that I got a mini figure of him from a Kinder Surprise ❤
One of the biggest what ifs for me is what if alex smith played in that 2012 superbowl. Fun to think about but also i feel like the ravens were just on fire
This is a really surprisingly heartwarming sincere video. New gears from that’s good
Man i forgot about how eerily similar nearly all the details are to those two leg injuries. Feels like a true cosmic force at work with that one.
Thank You, Mr. Perna.
This was really good thank you
Perna: Maybe we're not giving them time to develop [shows picture of Zach Wilson]
Also Perna: Don't you dare send us Zach Wilson?
Beautiful tribute Brandon. Alex Smith is one of my football heroes and will never be forgotten.
A good evening cup of Benchwarmer Brew before my fifth class of the day while watching one of the GOATs of our era dissect Alex Smith’s career better than ESPN professionals. Excellent work as always Perna. Waiting for Tom to get back so we get GPS again…
How Perna makes this vid and doesn't include anything about the Christmas day double-doink game between KC/Den is beyond me. One of my favorite regular season games of all time. Back and forth with some amazing plays - also an amazing Smith comeback.
Y'all have a very adorable child, perna. I bet she loves boxes like my boys do. "New toys, and you wanna play with the boxes?Go for it." 😂 😂
I got super excited to see you were going balls deep into Alex Smith.
Alex Smith is one of the greatest human beings on the planet. There’s no question. The guy just doesn’t give up and he’s so humble. I remember watching multiple games he’s down by 20 in the 4th quarter and he’s running on every 3rd down to keep the drive alive
His game vs the Saints was GOLD! GOLD, Jerry!
