People, why are you complaining about Jed not interviewing any people from good teams? He had to make this Baalke decision right now to keep up in the race for Harbaugh. We've already been a step ahead of everyone else in the Harbaugh sweepstakes; interviewing a Floyd Reese would only prolong the GM hiring process and possibly allow Harbaugh to slip out of our hands!

Sounds about right.

Yes, thank you! It only makes too much sense! I know that in a sense this GM search was a bit of a 'sham', but he had no other choice. I actually applaud Jed for keying in on the man he wants (Harbaugh), and doing anything he can in his power to get him. He wants to win and he knows Harbaugh can get us wins!

Apparently, they have the same agent and they've met each other more than a few times. In a report, they said they've 'visited' each other more than once since they've been in the Bay Area. However, Harbaugh did say that they don't have any personal relationship........yet.

thank you.

The San Jose Mercury News is reporting that Harbaugh has "signed off" on Baalke as the GM and is expected to be in the building Wednesday for an interview and prehaps named as the new HC as early as Thursday....wow!

I still holding my breathe until I see the official word.

But if you're Harbaugh why not go get your money and bring in a sixth title to a once storied franchise.

FYI, Raiders cut Cable loose! Typical Al Davis move, doesn't want us to grab Jackson.

Hope he cleans house still fire almost everyone!

I think our 2010 draft was

Give me something other than a puke sign!! Put some reasoning in your responce, 2 starters on OL, T. Mays could be something special (i think its worth the gamble), Bowman same as above, T ginn (one of the best return men in the draft last yr.. catch my drift), AD could be something if he keeps his footing, Byham could level ppl put him at FB.. Thats in 1 draft my friend..

Anthony Davis, Taylor Mays

A little unfair after one season, dont you think?

LOL. Did you know that Davis was a rookie this year? And so was Mays? You seem to be all hung up on Alex Smith in his 6th year, but you're so ready to call Davis

If Baalke cannot get Harbaugh, then Jed hired the wrong man.

Earl Thomas has more picks than our secondary combined and Anthony davis gets beat in every play
