Will Steve Smith Stay ?

[chef17]

I agree Scot.;) *joking*

About time we agreed on something :D

I feel what yall are saying but at the same time he's a leader the only person he gave a hard time last year was Jimmy and Fox and co. and they deserved it. We need that fire he plays with. if he doesnt want to be here fine he deserves to go to a super bowl contender. He could help us more if stayed than if he left. IMO I dont think he'll give Rivera or Cam any problems.

Yeah guys, he only gave a hard time to his bosses and the person who was supposed to be the undisputed leader on offense.

This guy's a team player.

Listen, I love Smith. He's been one of my favorite players to watch over the years. But if you're going to go 2-14 with Smith, than you might as well trade him while you can get something and leave both parties relatively happy.

Its not as easy for me I guess. I know he can be an ass but thats because he wants to win. No way can anyone convince he wasnt a leader on this team. He's just not as nice as to Jimmy as the rest of our team. If he goes we better no get raped.:incazzato: Everyone just take a look at my sig. Thats why we need him. First people diss Peppers for wanting to win now Smitty

I don't think anyone is "dissing" his desire to win; in fact, I'd say the vast majority of this board can empathize with him and admire that about him.

The point still stands that if he's not going to be happy here, we need to move on and see if we can get something for him.

You mentioned Peppers -- would you be happy letting Smith walk like Peppers did?

The other day TD said he thought Smitty was as good as gone...

...and Yas had a blurb about how JR thought Smitty walked all over Coach Fox the past few years and didn't want Rivera to inherit any problems.
