Who cares. We do not need anymore draft picks, it is obvious we are not making any use of the ones we have as it is. (What, like 4 fourth round picks?)

finally a coach that has the balls to cut pickett, anyways… what use do we have for a 7th rounder? you can find an impact player in the 7th round?

Yea because we havent been drafting any talent…. Most people dont get it. You build on the draft and then once the talent develops you sign the free agent pieces that will put the team over the hump and/or help the young talent develop.

Is anyone watching this game right now? I know this is against backups (the SD defense), but does Dilfer seem to have more of a command of the offense at this point? Or, am I jumping to conclusions because Smith never had enough of an opportunity to get into a rhythm?
This is the first opportunity i’ve had to watch the 9ers this season so i don’t really have a reference point…thank you TVUPlayer. What does anyone else think?

We would win a lot more games with Dilfer at the helm but Alex Smith has “potential” so no matter what he is our guy at least for another full season.

I feel bad for A. Smith. Half the time its hardly his fault. Vernon Davis dropped a first down ball (and probably vowed to never again) then on a couple of plays the offensive line doesn’t hold. Not to mention Vernon missed the block that resulted in the fumble, which led to the charger TD. So, once again Smiths stats will suck and again, it won’t be all on him.

I tend to think that sitting Smith for a year might not be a bad thing. Honestly, he’s 21 now? very young—most QB’s don’t really develop until much later, so i’m not worried about that. just because he got tossed in with the lions last year doesn’t mean he needs to go back again. dilfer could still teach smith a lot if he were on the field.
D—I do agree with you that it’s not all Smith’s fault. I’d definitely like to see him have the opportunity to get into more of a rhythm before making any judgements though.
just some thoughts.

There needs to be a since of urgency here. Smith has no worries right now. The kid just is not ready. He hold the ball to long, and makes very bad decisions.
7 hours after the fact.Matt K said:
I’m not saying its always Smiths fault its just that players miss blocks and drop passes when Hill and Dilfer are in also, yet they still find a way to make plays. Smith is just very very green and I hope to GOD he gets a little better otherwise if he wasn’t a 1st Rnd Pick he wouldn’t be good enough to make the team.

Michael, LISTEN TO YOURSELF! Yes, you build through the draft but you also go after players in the league. I am not saying to not build through the draft, I am saying let’s not ONLY build through the draft! 3 or 4 fourth rounders dude! I was making the point that adding a 7th rounder will only give us MORE picks. I was emphasizing we need to do something with them!
