Without it costing you anything major, who would you want?? He comes to this team to deliver maximum impact. Anyone but QB position. Saw this on a divisional forum....very interesting idea. Patrick Willis' name came up a lot...hehe. I say: LAWRENCE FITZGERALD

Larry Fitzgerald - he will catch everything Smith throws at him. The way this guy adjusts to the ball and those hands, damn.

Calvin Johnson forsure. He would be the last missing piece to this team. The guy is unstoppable at times and would give us a superbowl or two.

Johnson is at least just as good, but I say better.

and calvin was putting up monster numbers with dan orlovsky at qb LOL

Revis opposite C.Rogers would b killer on our D,way better than Revis n "Cromagdon" Cromartie.
Our pass rush would go thru the roof,ESPECIALLY in nickle situations w Cowboy,Alday,Raymac,Brooks,Willis,nBowman bein sent however Vic decides.
We would never have to send more than 4-5 on a blitz,n the coverage out the backfield n tight ends would be locked down otherwise.

Not saying that I'd choose him over everybody, but the thought of Gronk and V.D both lined up at T.E ...

It'd have to be between Revis and Larry Fitzgerald.

Are you telling me a front 7 of Ray McDonald, Ndamukong Suh, Justin Smith, Aldon Smith, Navarro Bowman, Patrick WIllis and Ahmad Brooks would not be the football equivalent of dropping Hiroshima on every offense in the league?

Quite frankly, the things Lawrence has been able to do is nothing short of amazing. I think Calvin will have to have a few more seasons like 2011 before he can be considered equal or better.

The way Lawrence takes balls away from DBs in tight windows, it's like a man taking a ball from a kid. Don't know if I've seen CJ do anything but jump balls.

Are we factoring in age for this question? Because some picked Ware and I can see why but if we get them at current age he will be 30 in a few months. Also, Calvin Johnson is going to be 27 Late Sept, Fitz will be 29 August 31 so he Calvin is 2 years 1 month younger. Or are we saying you can take any player that isn't a QB in their prime? Not sure I would want to start my team with someone who is 30. I'd be looking for much younger.

The theme of this fantasy was to pick anyone in the NFL right now to lead our Alex Smith team to the super bowl.

That's lame. There was another thread about this and the OP excluded QBs as well. Why? Because everyone knows this list would be full of QB names like Manning, Brady, Brees and Rodgers.
