Waiting on Andrew Luck....

I am not sure if I am in the minority here, but I HOPE the Niners don't jump and take a QB in the draft this evening. We are definitely going to need some kind of magic by our front office and coach to put the team in a prime position for Andrew Luck next year, as rejoining Harbaugh and Luck seems to be a home run in bringing the Niners back to greatness. I think everyone is pretty fed up with the questionable QB's that have come to the team over the last couple years and contributed to team's mediocrity. I would think bringing in a solid veteran QB (maybe Kevin Kolb) that could help mentor a new QB next year (hopefully Luck) and play alongside with Troy Smith this year makes sense. Troy Smith could surely benefit from a veteran QB presence as well. Would love to see the Niners stock up on picks for next year so as to maybe trade up to get Luck if need be next year or prepare for some type of trade that does not deplete the team to move up and get Luck in 2012 draft. That is why I think getting the Best Available Player outside a QB in preparation for next years Luck sweepstakes makes great sense for the Niners right now. Think all would agree if Peterson is still available, a great shut down corner, would be great fit for the team over the next 5 years. Having top LB in Willis and a top CB to play together in their prime with a strong supporting D line would surely contribute to wins. Last year was surely an O line focused draft, as hopefully the experience will pay off in making these young guys much better than demonstrated last season. Harbaugh really needs to change the losing atmosphere and culture of this team, as it really doesn't matter anymore what Alex Smith says or does...he needs to go and both sides can start a new. So the new regime starts this evening as hoping the front office has put together a solid short term and long term plan that will restore Niners to glory.
