Remeber your Crabtree guarantee last year?

I hope we sort out our linebackers. I'm leaning towards us going after Barret Ruud in free agency and trying to move up in the draft to get Berry.

No i actually don't. Other than i don't really rate him and i thought DHB would go higher, which he did.

It'd be nigh on impossible for you to get Berry. You'd have to give up way too much on the TVC to get upto around pick 3 (Tampa) to get Berry.

I think your prediction was that Crabtree is poop and would be a complete and utter bust. Thought he did well considering he missed the first few games

He's not been an utter bust admitedly and has done decent. I still think he has a bad attitude, came from a gimmicky college that inflated his numbers and has a questionable QB throwing him the ball.


He might prove me wrong. I'd like to see people on here acknowledge when I predict something correctly along with when I get it wrong!

Vernon Davis did not do too bad getting a career type season catching balls from this questionable QB. Alex Smith could be improving you know. The niners could be a real threat next season if the passing game can keep improving to make their offense more rounded.

Jamie Dukes said he would be astonished and amazed if Tebow went 1st round. For me people are focussing way to much on Tebows weaknesses and not enough on his positives. Bradford, McCoy, Clausen, Pike and Tebow all have flaws/weaknesses/injury doubts. If Tebow was one of the best college players of all time he must have some upside to him. I know good college play doesnt always translate into good play at the NFL level. Saying this iam sure Tebow will work on the technicals enough before the combine for 1 or 2 teams to be seriously interested in taking him first round come draft time.

Alex Smith is improving but he is still far below what he should be considering he was the number one overall pick. The 49ers obviously made the wrong choice and i'm pretty thankful that they chose Alex Smith instead of Aaron Rodgers.

They are a solid team and i fully expect them to make the play-offs next year since they are in the worst division in the NFL now Arizona have lost Warner. I could see them winning the division at around 8-8.

I think he will go to the Jags in round 1 as i've said but in terms of a player i wouldn't touch him before round 3. I'm sure he fumbled something like 5 of 6 of the first snaps he took at the senior bowl. To have such a basic problem is worrying. The guy is a leader and i've no doubt he will work hard to make it but right now he isn't ready. His accuracy is average, he won't be able to run as much in the NFL, he can't take snaps, he hasn't had to make many pre-snap reads and played exclusivley in the shotgun. I really hope he makes it because he is a great character but i don't think he'll ever be a great QB.

Bradford has the most concerns over his injuries and it baffles me how a guy who has suffered a number of shoulder injuries (and operations) can be rated as highly and above Clausen. He also did come from a somewhat spread offence.

I remember the Packers drafting somebody similar to Tebow. Erik Crouch? is that correct ? Thats why Smith struggled his first few years due to being in Meiers offence at Utah.
