I'd be very happy with Locker after #15. Too much talent that we'd pass up otherwise.
Kid has all the tools, demeanor and work ethic. Just needs a great QB coach. Check.
But no trade up scenario will work for us. He'll be gone before he hits the Seahawks at #25. We'd need to trade down, pick up a 2nd rounder in the process, and hope he makes it past the Vikings.

If Gabbert is Alex Smith 2.0, hell no.

Wow. I'm watching NFL Access and they are bashing Alex Smith big time right now. They are talking about draft busts and setting a franchise back. The camera flashes Smith then the next clip is Russell..... Then they had a bunch of geeks sitting around the computer (obviously MIT type math nerds) talking about stats and Smith's name comes up again....

You Alex-haters are a joke. All I see are people who are Alex Haters and those that are mildly indifferent realists and trust in whatever decision Harbaugh makes.

Seriously!! I know that we drafted Alex and it set us back for years, but this is ridiculous. Just because there's a white, athletic, QB, with intelligence, and wears #11 doesn't mean that Gabbert is going to be Alex SMITH!
If everyone says he's the best QB in the draft (and they do, this includes Mayock) than we should take him at #7. Quarterbacks can adjust and move ahead after the college game. If Harbaugh believes in him and I think he does, we have a franchise QB. Mayock compares his pro day to Bradford and Matt Ryan, that sounds good to me; where do I sign up?
Let's not forget we were ALL yelling the same thing a few years ago when the Niners brought Josh Freeman in for a visit. BTW -- Same QB coach that worked with Freeman and Bradford for the draft transition to the pros.
Everyone needs to relax a little bit. You're all so damn afraid to commit to a high draft pick at QB and it's ridiculous! You're like a dog that crapped on the kitchen floor, your owner slapped you across the nose, and now you never wanna go back inside the house again!

I dont hate Alex. I just enjoy getting some of the people on this forum all worked up. I wouldn't write the season off if he started this year.
