Jim is a classy guy. What else do you expect him to say? I wouldn't take it too seriously.

I do trust Harbaugh. But I don't understand how people think he will 'develop' Alex. He's been in this league for 6 years, going on his 7th. How do you develop a 7 year veteran? He's already developed his own weaknesses and negative tendencies. It's waaaay too tough to erase those weaknesses, AND THEN teach him the correct things. And that too to a QB who will be learning a new offense, something he has trouble with when has to execute it.

Watch this play again and you see Norris turn around and backpedal as soon as the ball comes out of Alex's hand. Had he continued running straight it would have been a perfect over the shoulder throw and that is exactly what Alex saw and intended. So please don't fault someone that isn't at fault.

That's full of BS Snake. Harbaugh is not that kind of guy. He's been honest about what he sees and sure he will give a good nod his way, but the fact is: He means what he says, period. He's always been that way it seems.
So when he says something like this:
What are some of the qualities Harbaugh saw in Smith?
“Very accurate passer,” he said. “Very athletic. And a guy that has played and been durable.”
You goSeriously. I trust Harbaugh's professional opinion on QBs any day.
Still...
It's a mutual respect 'deal', anybody who's reading the tea leaves (via every credible beat-writer in the Bay) knows that Alex does not want to come back (and it's within Al's own decision). Harbaugh is just hyping Alex up for KC/SD's backup slot.
-Even if there's some chance in hell we re-sign Alex after the CBA resolution (in fear of needing a familiar QB to carry into late-summer TC), Alex will be camp fodder (with a binding-1-year contract).

Look all you can say about that play is that it was a miscommunication. Was Norris supposed to continue running and catch the ball like a WR over the shoulder? Maybe, but that play was poorly designed to begin with. Maybe it is plays like those that has made Alex tentative to trust his recievers or throw them open.. who knows.
