Nate Davis was excellent value in the late 5th round as a developmental prospect.
McCloughan and Singletary understood what they were getting into with Davis: A player with all the physical tools to succeed at the NFL level, but needed mentoring and development from a mental standpoint - decision making, playbook acclimation, etc.
The 49ers realized their mistake when they pushed Alex Smith into the starting lineup without being fully ready. The fact that Nate Davis isn't competing for a starting spot should not be an issue. Jimmy Raye expressed his interest for Davis to compete with Carr for the backup spot - nothing more, nothing less.
The article is completely useless if readers actually had the context of the draft pick and thought process behind it.

What is the best way you can live with Lowell Cohen. He is a dumbass who is out of tune with the Bay Area. His opinions are compared best to Urkel God you hate his ways but in the end he proves his ways in one way or another. Still dislike him but realize he is there just like Urkel.

Till Smith proves it over 6 to 10 games he is a loser, so... maybe the other guy can play. All teams bury low selections, and only fate brings them to fame.. Same as it ever was.. and hey.....

I kind of feel for the guy. Imagine being bombarded day and night with stupid question after stupid question of whether Davis should start in 2009, and stupid statement after stupid statement that Davis should start over Smith in 2009. It was dumb a year ago, it is dumb right now, and will probably be dumb in 2011 and beyond. It just showed an utter lack of understanding of how the game works, and many, many fans took the bait and ran with it, throwing sanity out the window.
Stylistically, I wasn't impressed with Cohn's writing. However, you can tell that a year of pent of frustration was released, in this case to the general public.

Then do what I do...SKIP PD altogether. I never liked LC's articles, mistakenly clicked on them when I thought it was MM. And the new writer (formerly for the Raiders) isn't much better either. He's posting too many articles too quickly, sometimes with barely any content, trying to win us over with quantity instead of quality.
