But BOTH (even Robinson) are much better than what we had...

I would think most people now know Geno is going top 5 and most likely we'll be in the 15-20 range for the next few years. I know Phil pointed out the other later 1st round picks have had success, but this is a different time with the new CBA and emphasis on passing/scoring so the guys that used to be there won't be.

People can talk about whoever they want in the next draft, but odds are we won't be in a position to take a guy that is as good of a prospect as Geno and that is where the frustation comes in.

Frustrating no doubt.

Having a Dion Jordan (despite his brilliance outside of football) would be nice not only as a rotational player, but as insurance if either Hali or Houston were injured.

If either were to be injured, it would seriously affect QB pressure and pass rush.

I'm not a huge fan of taking a rotational guy that early. Hell, at this point, I'd rather them just take a RT and be done with it.

That's a problem. Way to much money for the nickel. Would make a great nickel though.

Just not so sure as the #2 CB?

But at the end of the day, the way I look I at it, it's about improving your secondary in every imaginable way possible. To me that means having good starters, depth, and great coaching.

*Milliner would give the Chiefs a really good starter next to Flowers. This is the only issue the chiefs have back there imo. The #2 CB spot is still questionable in my mind. If they could get Milliner, that second starting spot would be locked down. Just by addressing that #2 CB, this secondary would be solidfied.

Sean Smith is the 2, we just paid him accordingly.

In five years, Matt Ryan has exactly one playoff win, same for Schaub.

But Alex Smith wasn't the one "providing" wins in San Francisco.

He road the coattails of the #2 defense.

Everyone knows that. Everyone also knows that despite what you claim is a lack of offensive talent, a better QB produced more with the same players.

And it's not just Kaepernick. Even in 2008, the 49ers were a better offense without Alex Smith. Shaun Hill outplayed him, fer crissakes.

Sorry, but Alex Smith simply cannot make the throws Matt Ryan, Matt Schaub and Trent Green can/could. He'll never be as successful as those guys, unless he again rides the coattails of a top running game and defense.

It's lunacy to think he's going to be anywhere close to those guys.

Yeah, but they're marginal improvements.

I don't know about you, but my standards are higher then marginal. I'd like to see them improve the #2 CB signficantly.

you dont mind if Dorsey and reid get to have ONE draft before stating things like that?

Mr. Laz 03-14-2013 03:29 PM

Starter: Flowers, Robinson, Berry, Smith

nickle: Arenas

Holy shit.

The 2008 49ers averaged 20.1 PPG with Shaun Hill.

With Alex Smith in 2007: 11.7 PPG.

With Alex Smith in 2009: 19.8 PPG.

With Alex Smith in 2010: 19.5 PPG

Yep, its hard to see them using a high pick on milliner after that move.

You have your opinion, I have mine.

If Alex Smith stinks it up this year, it won't matter who's right or wrong because he'll be gone by the end of 2014.

What did the 49ers have from there down 3 last year?

from their three starters, they had 6 total.

YOur down three arent meant to be sack guys.
