...whats the problem here.
Smith and Hill are completely opposite types of QBs and if you are going to build around a QB like Smith, you might as well have a backup who can complete a pass more than 10 yards downfield.
Hillwas done, why not go out and get yourself a backup. Whats the big deadl? Nobody is touting him as a savior or anything.
I think peeps need to pipe down.
because it wasnt Peppers 
LOL...anyone who thought that was going to happen needs their head examined. ;-)
I'm not jumping for joy over David Carr, but I'm curious to see what he has and I think he allows the Niners to not have to dramatically change their style of play if Smith gets hurt.
This is a backup position people, not a starter. Its a very small contract for a QB...its a bargain price. Whats to lose? Kick the tires and see what he has, sometimes you get lucky.
I remember alot of peeps in the zone not being very happy with the signings of Aubrayo Franklin and Walt Harris. Lets just let this play out. ;-)
