Niners been making good moves!
Re-signed Anquan Boldin-thats huge!
Alex smith was terrible until Harbaugh came in. Andrew Luck, Alex Smith, Colin Kaepernick... three good qb' who were nothing before Harbaugh. Gabbert had a good college career and he will make a great backup for Kaep. Much better than using a 6th round pick on a qb.
Jonathan Martin is a California boy and Stanford alumn who made first team all american under Harbaugh and started every game for the Dolphins. At 6'5", 305lbs, he may not start this year but eventually he will start and be a major contributor. We got a solid line but Martin has a whole lot of potential.
Antoine Bethea is an upgrade from the sloppy, over rated, self centered Donte Whitner. We will have better pass coverage, less penalties, and more consistent tackling (Bethea sticks to the fundamentals and wraps guys up-Whitner always trying to get a big hit would make mistakes at times).
Carlos Rodgers and Tarrel Brown were garbage all year and Parrish Cox played better in the NFC championship. Chris Cook hasnt done anything in the NFL but his college career and physicality indicate he has room to grow. Chris Culliver and Eric Wright will also be there competing for playing time which should motivate some good play.
We will see what happens in the draft.
Either way things are looking good.
My only concern is the Kaepernick contract situation - I love Kaep but I do not want the team paying anybody the kind of money he wants - but it looks like they are waiting till next year to work that out which is good.
Im most excited about three guys who are under the radar at the moment Kendall Hunter, Eric Reid, and Bruce Miller. We all already know kaep, Boldin, Crabtree, V Davis, Gore, P Willis,, Bowman, A Smith, J Smith will all be will be big time contributors; but those three are going to be difference makers. Trust me
