DRAFT LUCK or Not !!!

I believe that as good as the Niners have been this season there are some positions that need addressing, particularly if we do not resign players like Ginn, Morgan and Goldson. My top three needs for the draft (if anyone cares) would be:
1. Free safety (considering we do not resign Goldson)
2. Fast, physical wide receiver. We’ve got our shorter shiftier guys in Crabs and KW, but we do lack a big wide receiver (built in the Braylon Edwards mold) to take the top off the defense and provide a good redzone target (precisely what Edwards failed to do).
3. 3-4 DE with potential that could ultimately replace Justin Smith after learning on the bench for two or three seasons. I love Justin but he is getting up there in age and I would say he has two or three years left in him as an All-Pro. Why not pick up a good, young player with great potential that could provide a smooth transition once the almighty Justin Smith decides to call it a career.

Now in regards to the Luck question. I have full trust is Harbaugh, Baalke and the tpcoaching stuff to make the right decidion

The only scenario I see this happening is if something happens to Luck and his draft stock drops tremendously. Trading up for Luck would damage this team for years to come in the draft. The Niners have enough needs that they need all the picks they can get to improve on their weaknesses.

It won’t happen. The scenario required to make it happen is too unlikely to consider.

… Indy isn’t going to keep Peyton and trade Luck. If anything, they’re going to trade Peyton.

Second, I can’t believe people are still focused on upgrading the QB position this week when we obviously have much bigger needs. RT and WR are huge holes. Really, the question for Sunday is going to be if Alex Smith can have a modicum of success despite Anthony Davis getting abused on any play, as well as the question of who the heck is going to catch the damn ball.

As has been said we need to continue to shore up our line and draft some better receivers.

Just the pure thought of what would have to be given up in order to jump up to the #1 pick is team-shattering. The Niners would either be giving out their future drafts for the next decade, or every player worth a damn on the roster now.

They’ve proven they can win with the quarterback we have now, and I believe he’s only going to get better. Besides that, we have a potentially solid young quarterback on the depth chart behind Smith.

Sure, any team would be lucky (no pun intended) to have the opportunity to draft a quarterback like Luck – but you can’t sell the entire farm for one over-producing cow, which is exactly what SF would have to do to even consider a move like this.

The earliest draft position we can get is 29th. To move from 29th to 1st would require multiple 1st round picks and multiple lower round picks.

And Luck isn’t worth it. You’ve seen what Harbaugh has done with Alex Smith. He had years with Andrew Luck. That is a kid who is already polished and is at or very close to his ceiling.

Don’t think we need to draft a QB.

Luck is so overrated. He’s not even going to be better than RG3.

Why would you want us to give up everything for him?

I think Luck will be okay to good in the NFL. But not the next Peyton Manning like so many people are saying.

Plus we have Alex. While Luck may have a better career than him, Alex is having his best season and is only 27.

To get the #1 pick we’d have to give up probably 3 1st round picks and maybe a few players. There’s no way he’s worth that.

If you voted against Smith, really?

Go Forty Niners!

If you haven’t noticed there is an NFC championship game about to happen with quite possibly one of our teams most historic and hated playoff rival. Your post is MORE THAN ANNOYING for even bringing up the subject this week. Can you show Alex some support and loyalty after the GUTS that very few QBs will ever show in their career.
