In 2009, we traded the 34th overall pick for a game manager QB with a limited skillset.
In 2013, we traded the 34th overall pick for a game manager QB with a limited skillset.
In 2009, we wasted the 3rd overall pick on a valueless postion.
In 2013, we're likely going to waste the only #1 overall pick we've ever had on a valueless position. (RT)
In 2009, we signed a bunch of "low-B" and "C" tier FA's while difference makers went to other teams.
In 2013, we've signed a bunch of "low-B" and "C" tier FA's and not a single difference maker.
The only difference is that the 8-10 win season might come a season earlier, and we'll likely not see the 1st overall pick ever again - but never win anything of substance either. Nothing like making a piss-poor attempt to "win now" when your main competition is a team QB'd by Peyton Manning - who by the way, just got a new toy. A difference maker.
Enjoy your 8 wins a year and your tailgates. Great seats still available.

A whole lot of this. The sad thing is, the true fans will declare it a victory if Alex Smith restores them to the "glory days" of 9-7/10-6 and a first round playoff exit. Pathetic.
