Joe Flacco isn't a Cadillac.

Alex Smith isn't Joe Flacco.

Look, I'm already letting Dane talk me into Nick Foles. :banghead:

There's not enough of my dignity left to let you talk me into Alex ****ing Smith.

Ain't gonna happen... :D

Eh, 6 in one hand, half dozen in the other.

They're different players, but Alex Smith would be far better in the WCO that Reid runs than Joe Flacco would be.

I died a little inside after reading the Kissel article and thinking to myself "Y'know...we could do a lot worse..."

Dammit! Begone, Nick Foles!

Better than bad does not equal good.

I have no doubt Alex Smith would be ADEQUATE.

I don't want adequate.

Before you get too down about it, go read my latest response in the Kissel thread. I've mentioned it before and so has Dane.

This perception that Harbaugh somehow fixed Alex Smith is just not accurate.

Harbaugh did freat job of masking Smith's flaws with scheme and play calling.
He turned him into pretty good game manager that didn't lose games for them.

Did Smith even average 200 yards a game?

And Kyle Williams never gets to be the goat in that NFC Championship loss if Smith converts just 2 or 3 meaningful 3rd downs.

Right. The Niners were basically a better version of the 90s Chiefs. Run hard, play tough D, solid turnover ratio

Oh its going to bring it in to focus alright, and this "draft anyone but a QB with the first"-BULLSHIT will cease and decist.

Is it bad draft value if you take a mid to late first round projected QB and he turns into the QBOTF?


Value or rather worth I guess seems to be a hindsight thing. We drafted Dorsey were he was slotted, but was that good value?


In the end, it's about getting good players that fit your system and help you win. Who gives a shit about value.

People that are trying to win the Draft instead of trying to win the Lombardi.
