I've always been more of a defense fan. Gotta say I'm really starting to like this football player! Might be early in his career but he looks like a great pick.

IDK, personally speaking, I'd get a personalized jersey and put something clever on the back.

I don't remember Derek Smith being in the backfield as much as Borland. Might not be a good comparison here...
A lot of Derek Smith's tackles were after the RB carried him 5 yards and finally tripped.

"Not tall enough. Not fast enough. Arms are too short. You hear all of that. We just love the makeup. We love the player. He's everything you're looking for from a DNA standpoint. He loves the game, he's a smart football player, he's an extremely instinctive football player. He's overcome that lack of arm length. He's overcome that lack of speed that's been talked about. He's just a baller." - Trent Baalke on Chris Borland

I have never seen one man credited for tackles he never made as often as Derek Smith.

That depends. Are you a short balding white guy? I think the jersey would look really good on you if you fit that description.
