I stopped reading at "Alex Smith has already got 2 coaches fired" Sorry but Nolan and Singletary got themselves fired for being horrible head coaches. Credibility was shot at that point. You would think a professional sports writer would at least understand sports.

He lost me when he said the 49ers might draft a receiver at #7. Not gonna happen.

Also, Alex will get a ton of calls to be a back-up. You know the Colts will call. It's possible Norv will give him a call. The Patriots, the Jets, the Giants... the list goes on.

I hate Cohn! He has to be one of the worst beat writers ever! I hate that Razzano guy too. I can't believe I bothered to read this article.

I hope this means that we're drafting Von Miller.

Some of this is pretty bad/lazy "reporting", with some blatant errors. On 5th paragraph, Newton did NOT workout for scouts, he worked out for the media. No NFL personnel was allowed. Also, the "veteran observer" he mentions is Mike Mayock who didn't even attend the workout.

I'd take the rest of the article for what it is, an opinion with some lazy writing.

its funny how everyone knocks manny for things he isnt even given the opportunity to do. how often does the defensive play call for manny to blitz. not to mention he wasnt even an every down player. he gets sacks when he gets the chance to. he doesnt get what everyone wants him to because he doesnt get the chance. throw in that he is a great coverage lb and sets the edge very well he is a guy we absolutely want on our team.

Quote:
“I think they will take the best available guy on defense,” Razzano said. “And then they'll go quarterback in the second or third round. They're in a bit of a pickle right now. It wouldn't shock me if they take a receiver.”

He isnt saying anything most 9ers have in their mock drafts or whats being said in here. If and a very big if WR Aj Green falls to 7, the 9ers should take him.

Harbaugh has already stated more than once he's watched every snap from the 2010 season.

ANY coach would do that. Who makes evaluations on only the good plays? Nobody with a job thats for sure.

Odds are Harbaugh's looked at every throw Alex has made since Utah. That's just the type of coach Harbaugh is.

Agree and Cohn has little credibility as he is more a flame thrower than an analyst. Says things to generate interest...good for business.

He reminds me a bit of Big Ben, difficult to bring down--able to get passes off under pressure. Not sold at #7, but trading back would be an option.

Thats what they said about Tebow he looked damn good last year. Cam Newton is an upgrade over Alex who may be resigned as a stop gag qb but he is not the long term answer at qb

he played like 3 plays here and there and played most plays in red zone only in goal packages designed specifically for him

and aex can be good he has had 33 td and 22 int last 2 years and sing was coordinator who has no clue how to gameplan magine how much better he will do with our new coaching staff

Cam Newton mobility is big avoiding the rush and hitting reciever down the field is something he excels at I think we should take him at #7. I cant see him making it out the top 10 and our bigges need is qb sometimes you have to draft on need if he is not there I want cb Jefferson Lsu or olb Von Miller Texas A&M.
