Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 3
New England Patriots acquired Alex Smith from Tampa Bay Buccaneers for an undisclosed 2009 draft pick. The available record does not show enough separation to call a clear long-term winner.
Trade 2 of 3
Kansas City sent two second-round picks to San Francisco for Alex Smith. Smith immediately stabilized a team coming off a two-win season, led four winning campaigns in five years, and created the bridge to Patrick Mahomes. The 49ers received meaningful draft capital, making this a good sale that was still surpassed by Smith's franchise-changing value.
Trade 3 of 3
Kansas City traded Alex Smith to Washington for cornerback Kendall Fuller and the 78th pick in the 2018 draft. Fuller gave the Chiefs two seasons of secondary play and was part of the Super Bowl LIV roster, while the draft capital added another valuable asset. The move also cleared the starting job for Patrick Mahomes, making Kansas City's return unusually strong even before considering the quarterback succession.
