We know what we are getting with Rex - good one week, a train wreck the next. Multiple turnovers. And Rex has hit his ceiling - he is not going to get any better.

Smith, on the other hand, could be one of those players who blooms with a change of scenery. He could get much better and really contribute.

Yes! This is the exact reason why Smith should be the choice over Rex. At best Rex will be okay and we could go 8-8. if were wrong and Smith is a bust then we win 5 or 6 games...whats the difference? It's better to roll the dice that Smith could turn into something good.
