Campbell's numbers dont lie

Smith was also a very young 21 when he made his first start, so you could reasonably assume the light to go on at a later date, but in all likelyhood, he's never even going to make it past the adequacy stage.

Of course, he's still only 25, and Jason Campbell will be 28 on the 31st of December, but I have to think that Campbell has already accomplished more here than Alex Smith will ever get a chance to in his career.

Personally I've never been too impressed with Smith, and was pretty stunned when the Niners passed on Rodgers for him.

Still, in the interest of fairness, I felt it should be pointed out he has had to deal with various coordinators

It's going to be real interesting with Smith now that he has a largely developed Vernon Davis and a Michael Crabtree running routes with Frank Gore in the backfield there.

Their OL kinda sucks too, but they really could do something down the stretch with Smith at QB. The 49ers have largely been void of talent for much of the second half of the decade, but every one of their first round draft picks since 2005 are now in the starting lineup, which I'm sure is something not a lot of franchises can boast.

Well, I guess Kentwan Balmer isn't, but he was as much of a first rounder as Patrick Ramsey was.

that statement pisses me off so much, you are either accurate or not, and honestly he isn't, but i think "I think a franchise QB can help an OL more than a franchise OL can help a QB" is very ture just look at big ben in pitt, the only problem picking a qb like tha out of the draft is like hitting the mega millions
