Most smart teams build their team via draft and supplement via FA. We have been doing the opposite up until this past year. I like the new way.

I don't remember saying signing big name FAs. I make the trade for the guy who I think will be the face of my franchise for the next 15 seasons. Fill my holes with smart FA signings like we have been doing. You can stockpile all the picks you want but without a QB you'll be drafting in the top 10 every year. Eventually you got to pull the trigger.

I"m sorry. I missed the 49ers being in the top 10 in the draft this year.


Insanity is doing the same things over and over expecting different results. I figured you guys would have "gotten it" over this past decade but apparently you long for the Cerrato era back again. *sighs*

Holey crap. I had no idea you put this up, I was on page 3 when I wrote the same thing in a responce. Scarey.

They have had a top-11 pick every year from 2005 until this past season. One was used in a trade down.

But deliberately getting a top-11 pick every year would grate you due to your ethics about sport, now would it?
