Dixon has performed fairly well and given a few years developing behind a QB guy like Harbaugh he could do some real damage in 2 years or so. If anything if he has shown real progress he could become quite a bargaining chip when the next group of QB hungry teams come along in a few years.
Also a fun fact to throw some people of if they haven't already Wiki'ed Josh Johnson; he is the cousin of Marshawn Lynch and JaMarcus Russel.

ya or we could get Jordan Palmer he's 6'5 233 almost the exact same as his brother Carson 6'5 235. So he must be just as good. Plus they both played out of the same vagina.

I hope you think you're the coolest kid on the block because your intelligence and attempted sarcasm is horrifying. Since you clearly don't know the QBs; both of them have similar playing styles and if Harbaugh did such a good job with Johnson he could easily do the same with Dixon.

ya I think I'd rather have the guy that threw 70! more TD passes in college with 6 less int's and almost twice as many yards. oh and is familiar with our coach.

Very erratic writing there buddy. I assume you like Johnson, your clearly not seeing the logic here that Dixon is talented and would be easier to obtain compared to Johnson.

What's erratic about it? I like Josh Johnson not Dennis Dixon. Just because they're both athletic QBs doesn't mean one is as good as the other.

I read it a little slower and it makes more sense now. The ! after 70 threw me off. I am all for flat out comparisons but you have to admit that in this situation that comparing numbers don't completely reflect well on the talent pool that each player was in.

Not too mention I don't want to make it look like a Hawaii vs. Oklahoma contest but just because he throws up huge numbers doesn't make him a better player than Dixon. Division 1AA Pioneer league vs D1 PAC10 is like Apples and Oranges. I reference Colt Brennan vs. Matt Ryan comparisons, it just doesn't work statically or competition wise.

You can compare them individually which is what I am trying to do but the fact that Johnson was only sacked 5 times in 3 years, all of them coming in his senior season after Harbaugh left really speaks volumes of not only his talent and Harbaugh's coaching but just as much on how bad the competition is in that league.

Put USD against Oregon and it wouldn't be close. They run immensely different styles of football and Dixon was not asked to carry his team unlike Johnson. Dixon is a cheaper, easier to to acquire version of Dennis Dixon who could be utilized in the same way that Johnson was under Harbaugh.
