Didn't Smith and Kubiak just get new contracts? I highly doubt this would bother McNair so much that he'd fire or discipline either one of them. McNair seems like a logical guy and I'm sure he understands sometimes you hit on a pick and sometimes you don't. He was here for Carr, afterall. If McNair wants to piss and moan about putting a disappointing 3rd rounder on the PS and exposing him to waivers, I think Smith would have a good argument bringing up guys he's hit on such as Foster, Jean, Dobbins, Martin, Yates, etc. That should ease McNair's mind and concerns.

As for actually putting Posey on the PS, there's what 'should' happen and what 'will' happen. I agree that egos will get in the way he likely 'will' get a roster spot. However, he doesn't deserve one and 'should' be put on the PS or sent to *cough* IR. I hope he turns it around, but I certainly wouldn't bet my lunch on it based on what we've seen and read at this point.
