Do people really think we're set with alex smith????or do people think a LG is simply more important than a QB? Or is it actually something about Claussen himself?

What the hell is so special about Clausen anyway? All his brothers were decent in college too, but none of them had pro talent. What makes everyone so sure he does?
So because his brothers suck, he's supposed to too? All I know is, if it wasn't for him Notre Dame wouldn't of even been in competition in the games they were in. He kept them in the game everytime. And I'm not saying draft a QB then start him now. Draft one and sit him until Alex screws up or sucks. Worst case scenario, we have 2 good QBs. Would any of you be upset with that?
And as for Nate Davis, if a guy has a whole year to learn a pretty simple playbook, he's got problems. It's not like he's learning Martz system. Ours is pretty easy. That tells me 1 of 2 things. He's either dumber than we thought, or he doesn't put enough effort. What was it he said? 11 probowls in 8 years of playing lol.
Has Clausen EVER had a winning season? IDK. If this team needed a qb that badly, I would make a traqde and get Campbell before I draft this guy. ND attracts some of the BEST recruits and I can't understand why the kid could not get them into any major bowls. I just don't see ANYTHING special about him.

He has a strong arm. He is accurate. He is from a pro style offense. He knows how to operate from under center very effectively. He is underestimated in this draft IMO. He may turn out to be the best QB in this draft.
I don't really want him. But if the 49ers picked him I would understand why. As long as he turned out I could live with it.
And BTW a lot of those photos circulating on the net are photoshop...

What do you see in Clausen that would suggest to you that he will be a better NFL QB? Alex produced 62 total TDs in 26 games. Clausen produced 65 Tds in 35 games. Alex was and still is more physically gifetd than most, and certainly smarter too.
He played in a pro style offense and is comfortable and effective under center...
But he still hasnt faced an NFL quality defense. Not only that but Notre Dame plays some real snot balls every year too. I dont buy the "he played in a pro style offense" as a reason he will succeed in the NFL.

I really, really hope this is all posturing and that the team doesn't want this guy. Maybe they are just trying to scare someone above them to trade up, possibly bumping a player they really want down one more slot???
