The sooner he gets cut/benched... the sooner Alex smith will throw for 4000 yards.

He was projected to be a fifthy round draft pick. It is what happens when you get awed by someone and feel they are climbing draft boards, they disapoint.,
You want the person with the first round grade who is dropping, they usually do better, ie desaun jackson

Until he proves otherwise, I think rachal should be a back up.

what's wrong with Davis? He was a very young rookie will only get better.
He will. Its just those growing pains and those total whifs that are gonna hurt.

He sucks gtfo, I hope they give snyder a chance to start over him..
If rachal honestly wins a fair battle for the spot, I'm cool with that, but when they asked if Snyder would get guard reps harbaugh sounded like he'd rather have snyder taking 2nd team center reps(even sounded surprised a bit at the question). I guess it makes sense to have him ready to play that position if another injury happens there, but I'd like rachal to get some honest competition.

I dont want to sound racist but theres a few positions I'd rather have white guys playing and the OL is one of them.

You have to want to be good and not rest on your laurels. He has had a couple of years to progress and he hasn't. More of a "take the money and run" kind of a player.

Bust or Immaturity. He just doesn't get it. The sooner he is bumped from the lineup, the sooner Davis can have a decent chance of developing into a solid player.
He was another of those painful selections I ridiculed on draft day. The Niners throw away early picks so often.
The Niners must have the worst 2nd and 3rd round picks of all time.
add 1st round to that list
vernon and iupati are legitimate NFL talents at least... Jury is still out on Crabtree and Davis

Hard to choose any of those labels. I think he is a talented kid that needs to gain some maturity and screw his head on tight. His play pisses me off, but it is usually inconsistency and lack of attention to his technique, not any limitations to his ability. I don't get the impression that Harbaugh will be patient with that stuff. Chilo will be good or gone (at least from the starting line up).
