By the way, whats with all the Derick Smith hate? He was a pretty decent player while he was here and he started for the 49ers for seven years, including the years where they were going to the playoffs. Next time do a background check before saying stupid stuff like "he sucked!"

Don't believe me, then see what ESPN had to say about the guy:
ESPN - With emergence of Willis, 49ers release longtime leading tackler Smith - NFL
"Smith has long been one of the NFL's top unsung defensive players, annually racking up gaudy tackling statistics with little fanfare.

And whats with all these injury issues? The guy has missed 9 games in 10 seasons. Maybe his bodies breaking down but hes not a guy I would consider injury prone.

Someone's faster
