Alex Smith, the former first overall selection in the 2005 NFL Draft, announced his retirement Monday. As a San Francisco 49ers fan in the mid-2000's I saw the many highs and lows of Smith's career. Will he be most remembered for being selected ahead of future Hall of Fame and All-Time Great, Aaron Rodgers? or will his legacy be defined by mentoring another elite talent in Patrick Mahomes? Perhaps, Smith should be best known for overcoming a horrendous leg injury that almost cost him his life? Here is my thoughts on Alex Smith and his lasting legacy post-retirement. #AlexSmith #49ers #SanFrancisco49ers #FTTB #ChiefsKingdom #Chiefs #WFT #PatrickMahomes #Project11 #NFL #NFLNews
