I think his scrambling v. vanilla defense distorted that performance. It was a nice showing but didn't reach tolzien deity levels

I was kind of shocked to read this from him because I always thought he is usually pretty good in his assessments.
He also picked the Seachickens to win the division (which seems to be the popular thing these days)
For the record I think Alex is a better player than Russell Flutie.

I very much believe Russell Wilson will have the best year of any quarterback in the division," Williamson said. "Sam Bradford has a chance to be a very good one, but he looks terrible and his supporting cast is a mess. Arizona is a mess. I'm not a huge Smith believer." In Wilson, Williamson see the potential for Cam Newton-type production. He thought Wilson, a third-round choice, should have gone a round earlier. "One thing about him, his college history shows he doesn't turn the ball over," Williamson said. "He'll do more at this level, but he is not going to hurt the team the way rookie quarterbacks usually do. He's very smart, really knows where to go with the ball." Williamson said he didn't necessarily "trust" Smith. This seemed curious to me. Smith tossed only five picks all last season. He was about as trustworthy as a quarterback could be. And when the game was on the line against New Orleans in the playoffs, Smith made the plays to win the game. He'll presumably grow within the 49ers' offensive system now that he's had time to get more comfortable with it.

"I'd rank San Francisco first and Seattle second in defense across the NFL, so the difference is not massive."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA this guy is CLEARLY a Seahawk fan! They have the second best defense in the NFL and the difference is not massive?!

Anybody who believes this is far from a scout, and also really just doesn't know the NFL. Name the quarterbacks who start as rookies and emerge unscathed with fantastic seasons. They're very few and far between. Russell Wilson is no Dan Marino. This is a joke.

I'm telling you, the SeaCocks are the trendy pick this year (skip bayless, williamson, rosenthal, etc.)
We were the trendy pick from 2007-2010 and how did that work for us?
Yah everybody likes to pick the darkhorse, this is good for JH's motivational material.

You gotta give Alex some credit he did win a playoff game, you cant just say some 5"10 rookie who had a good preseason is gonna have a better season.
