Chiefs' OC: Alex Smith Is NFL's Best Quarterback

Aug 01, 2013 12:58 PM EST

The Kansas City Chiefs acquired Alex Smith in the offseason in exchange for a second-round pick in 2013 and either a second- or third-round pick in 2014.

Smith helped lead the San Francisco 49ers to the NFC Championship Game in 2011.

?Ultimately, every team has to have a quarterback,? offensive coordinator Chuck Pederson said. ?I think we have the best in the league."

Pederson was asked if he thinks Smith is better than the likes of Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers.

?There are a lot of great ones,? Pederson said, ?but over time, Alex has proven he can get it done. He?s a sharp guy, he brings a wealth of knowledge, he?s experienced, he?s a proven winner the last couple of years, and he needs a team to embrace him.?

Smith had a 104.1 passer rating before losing his starting job last season to Colin Kaepernick.
