it hurts me deeply that gordon was sought after by other teams

gordon had a 52% corsi with a 32.6% OZS. 12th in selke voting.

H sedin has been top 20 in selke voting for a few yrs now. So I guess 3 mill for his defense and 3 mill for being an art Ross candidaite

I hope I'm wrong but I say Niners in a romp. That is a crazy deep and talented team

So you're saying he is popular with the nerds?

Brad Richardson ate a 60oz steak and went swimming after last season.

Maybe if the 49'ers were at home. I can't see it being a romp in Seattle.

Why? Honestly where is the weakness. A smash mouth running back, a scrambling qb with a great arm and a deep WR core. And a top 3 defense.

My prediction as well.

Schroeder and Richardson both looked good swapping time with Higgins and Hansen today.

I don't see a 5'9 center playing third line on a Torts team.

I think him and DCT just got tired of seeing the same BS day after day in the off season.

While he wasn't a center, Marty STL played for torts. And before u say it, JS isn't sTL but he is proof that little guys can play under torts

What I was going to say is St.L played top 6 . I think Torts would want a bigger grinding 3 rd line center. If Torts can fit Schroeder into a top 6 then sure but not bottom 6

Seattle has a top 2 defense, scrambling smart qb with an arm, a smash mouth running back and have home field advantage with Guinness world records on hand, as they're trying to break the decibel record. Hawks fans are smart and loud. Loudest in the league. This is going to be a big test for Kaepernick. If he can succeed here he's burst into the elite category imo. Difficult place for a qb.

Lynch is not smash mouth. He's good,i but not smash mouth. Defenses are even. WR are day and night better in SF.

All I said is that he looked good today.

I agree with the concern over his size, but I also think ability trumps size.

If Schroeder proves he's the most capable, he'll get the spot—if someone else does, they'll get it.

It'd be funny if someone went over the the Sabres boards and Booner is a hit there, shooting the sh*t.

I'm not sure why u posted this? Yes he's good, but he's mainly an open field runner a(I'm sure there are tons of exceptions) Gore just runs down the middle and carries d line men for yards. And btw, Wilson isn't half the scrambler or Read option QB CK is.

Man, I'd love to see Seattle win. (frank) I hate Harbough and his excuses. But SF is one of the most talented teams in a long time
