I mentioned last year that Shanahan likes Leinart (like him 5 years ago at least) and that there were rumors Leinart might be with the Skins via a trade (for a late conditional pick). It's still possible, but less likely now I think. Leinart's a free agent and I don't believe he wants to be here, prefers to stay out west (Though if Jeff Fisher comes calling, that might be different)
The Alex Smith speculation I seem to have started here is based more on what I know of what type of QB may interest them (and a couple other things), but the name Alex Smith has been only casually mentioned in passing. So, if you were to ask me what FA QB they going after based on information directly given I'd tell you Leinart, Bulger, or even JaMarcus Russell before I said Alex Smith. But if you read between some of the lines (lines which I know not everyone has access to read). Similarly, when you-the collective you-asked last year about who the Redskins would draft. The conventional names I gave were Russell Okung, Eric Berry...but reading between the lines it was Trent Williams.

Still no Kyle Orton or Kolb I assume?
