You DEFINITELY need a solid ILB tackler though, and both maualuga and dansby bring that to the table. Dansby is better, Maualuga is younger and more upside. Its a coin toss right now, but I'll take the youth. |

Jacksonville liking Smith is gravy for us. We need to have Teicher ramp that shit up or something.

they whiffed on Phillip Wheeler at ILB so they definitely want a guy who can cover, because Wheeler is definitely no thumper

I agree, but John Dorsey shouldn't be playing checkers. He needs to realize the limitations implicit within Alex Smith's game and have a contingency plan. He should also be a good enough student of history to know that a lack of a contingency plan is why he's currently working in Kansas City instead of another city.

This request was serious. If explained in previous posts in this long thread, can someone post a cliff note version of the positive opinions?

I mean, I'm sure the 49ers hate having 2 ILBs who can play in coverage. Just hate it. |

Right attitude, strong and would be quite good in coverage...for a linebacker.

I said this same exact thing last night: You cannot ask the fans of a franchise that's had ONE winning season in the last six and no playoff wins in 20 years to "Be patient while we develop a guy we hope can become a playoff and possible Super Bowl winner". You can't. You'd have 40,000+ no shows each week (just like the 80's and the latter half of 2012), you'd have a pissed off an apathetic fan base (you know, the people that actually BUY tickets and attend the games) and you'd run the risk of losing your base for years on end. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Clark Hunt instructed Reid and Dorsey to do whatever it takes this offseason to put a respectable football team on the field in 2013 and build towards the future in 2014. Every move they've made confirms it. |

He's a height-weight-speed guy.

The difference is, there isn't TWO solid starters to trade up for, there isn't a guaranteed starter to trade up for at all. They showed their hand by releasing Fitz, but my point about having the ball in their court, is that KC CANNOT command the trade value this year to get into the first spot, that the Redskins had to pay last year for the 2nd. You're talking 1st and 2nd, or 1st and 3rd plus a mid rounder next year at best. Which is great for us, we'd like that. If we can work out at 1 and 2, plus a 3 next year, we negate the Smith trade and all we do is move back 7 spots to draft a tackle we would have reached on with the first. We lose nothing and gain an Alex Smith. |

its not a HUGE drop off anymore like it was with Bowe, Charles than a bunch of unproven Scooter homer draft picks that have done dog shit in the NFL It's now Bowe, Charles, Fasano, Avery... role players with production (receptions, yardage, touchdowns) between them. That's like their versions of Delanie Walker, Manningham, Josh Morgan, etc. |

He's never been as successful as 2010 or 2008 Matt Cassel.
He throws the ball down the field less than Cassel. He takes a lot of necessary sacks. Facts.
