I understand where you're coming from with Alexander, but here's my take on it: you can't dump a guy after one bad game. If everyone did that, there would have been times this season where people were considering sitting literally all 10 of the current Top 10 WR Scoring Leaders, which we know probably wasn't happening. Granted, Danario is no Calvin Johnson, Brandon Marshall, or AJ Green...but he's definitely very skilled, and unfortunately he plays a very volatile position, at which even the Superstars have their off-days. Yea, a goose egg stings a little more than a 3 or 4 point day, but its the same principle...he went out, had an off day, and should bounce back. The skilled ones always do...and I know the sample size on Alexander is pretty small at this point, but from everything I've seen out of him so far, he's definitely got game. It's your call, ultimately, and I'm not saying I don't have a chance to be wrong, but that's just my take on it.
Steve Smith is kind of a curveball, because he has actually starting stepping up these last 3 weeks, and has the much more advantageous match up against a pretty porous Oakland secondary. One thing I'm not a fan of with Steve Smith is how little of an opportunity he has to score. Granted, 2 of these have come in the last 3 weeks, but with only 3 TDs on the season, for the most part he's really gotta pile the yards on to be a smart play. Really having only done that 4 times this season (Weeks 1,2, 8 and 14), it's hard to love him. That, and he's lost a step now that he's creeping up there in age, which was what always made Steve Smith "Steve Smith," if you know what I mean.
This is too close for me to call definitively...Alexander if you want to play the higher upside player, Smith if you want to play the better match up. I'd recommend upside over match up, but that's just me.
