Well I didn't think this would ever happen, but I actually agreed with something said or written by Ray Ratto. If Jed hires Baalke as early as sunday without interviewing GM talent currently employed by other teams(DeCosta, Caserio, C. Polian ect), then his focus is on getting Jim Harbaugh and not finding the best possible GM. Now I don't have a problem with Trent Baalke. I don't think he has been at a level of power long enough to get a good gauge on if he can do the job or not, and for all we know he may have been undercut along the way. His draft imo shows promise, although Anthony Davis and Taylor Mays need more time to develop Mike Iupati is a monster and Anthony Dixon and Nate Byam each contributed as late round picks. Returning to the topic of this post. I also like the link he has to Parcells and thought the Brian Westbrook signing was a good pick up(it was the coaches who didn't know how to use him). If he's the final choce ok, just actually do your due diligence first and don't offer it up as lip service. Otherwise it's as the article claimed and Jed is disingeneous and this team is in trouble for a long time to come. My opinion is similar to others that I have read, if the mods need to merge this so be it. [ Edited by GorefullBore on Dec 29, 2010 at 18:46:10 ]

Dont care if Trent gets hired. York's don't know what they're doing. Anyway you look at it, with the Yorks as our leadership, it will always be a crapshoot.

I just hope they roll a seven this time and Baalke is a GM beast.
