I dont think he had a bad year last year.
Arenas didn't live up to the hype, IMO.

I also think we won the trade with Jenkins for Baldwin. Not by much yet, but Jenkins is younger and has a better chance to actually develop into a solid #2 with his skillset. Baldwin is buried in that depth chart right now and is just about done.

I've posted this before, but there is no ****ing way this should have been a good trade for us. It was, but it shouldn't have been.
We already had Shane Bannan from the 2012 draft. We had drafted Braden Wilson in the 6th round of the 2013 draft. We signed Toben Opurum as a rookie free agent and designated him as a FB in training camp, too. So we had all those FBs on the roster just one day after the 2013 draft. And a few days later we traded Javier Arenas for ANOTHER freakin FB, only this one was expected to be better than the garbage we brought in, basically nullifying all the FB roster moves we had made. So... Dorsey made the Braden Wilson pick by accident. Or something. I have no freakin clue what he was thinking when he made that pick if he was going to just go out and acquire the real starter a few days later before even team minicamps began and he had a chance to see even a glimpse of the talent he had. And let's not forget what he had to give up. Javier Arenas wasn't anything special at all, but he was still our 3rd best CB on the roster at the time. We didn't draft any CB depth, either. Dorsey looked at THIS lineup of CBs and said, "Yeah, we don't need Javier Arenas... let's go waste more assets on that FB!" Brandon Flowers Sean Smith Dunta Robinson Jalil Brown Vince Agnew I mean... good GOD what was he thinking? He spends a pick on Wilson to compete with Bannan... he adds Toben Opurum on top of that... then takes a player from our most shallow roster spot and sends him away for a FB that he just invested a bunch of shit in. Marcus Cooper and Ron Parker saved his ass on that trade. Really, it saved the team's ass. Now it looks brilliant because we need Anthony Sherman more than we need Javier Arenas. I really hope that Dorsey knew the 49ers and the Seahawks were going to cut those CBs and planned ahead. Otherwise... wow. What an idiot. |

Anthony Sherman
Sherman played great. He really did. He had a huge blunder with the fumble in the game @ Denver but really did a great job in paving the way for Jamaal.
Still, if I could to back in time I'd never make that trade. Arenas was always pretty good for us and the argument for positional value shouldn't even need to be made.. |

Yea, that's interesting. why even pick Wilson if you had no faith in him from the start? It doesn't look like much was picked after Wilson anyways that we missed out on. except for Marcus Cooper.
