We’re definitely ahead of SF in the QB department. And every other NFC West team. Matt is the clear-cut top QB in the division right now, until someone proves that they can surmount him. Alex Smith will never be that guy. Matt Leinart probably not. Sam Bradford could definitely become that guy.

And yes Jay Dub, I’ll bet money that Matt tries to take a shot down the field to Deon Butler this weekend.

Joey, I’d say we are ahead of SF when it comes to QBs – don’t forget that Bernard put Smith out for most of 1 season and pretty much all of the next…

I would really like to see some play- it action to butler for some long bombs this Saturday and all year, if the line holds and Matt has more time to pass and a gap for Forsett to run thru. Then I believe we will have the best all around talented team in the west. Looking forward to see Curry Red Hawthorne/Hill with their hands on the ball carrier or QB think they can sideline a few players this year, hopefully Alex Smith XD that would be a the shyt to watch the F’in9ers struggle without their starting QB.

Great read Derek.Keep up the good work. I do think Branch will be there longer than Obomanu. With Ganther running double duty we will have an extra spot somewhere. Saturday will give us some good looks at our backups.

Thanks Derek. I saw a lot of similar things last week… most notably, Morrah. He moves much better than the other three, and is ideal for that slot TE position. It will be interesting to see what unfolds – I don’t see them wanting to let either of their two youngsters go, so do they keep 4 or cut Baker, who could be the best blocker?

I expect to see Branch on the opening day roster. I noticed you left him off the depth chart completely… I like Ben, but he seems to be duplicitous (much like your assessment of Branch). Martin and Ben could be odd men out here, though. Similar issues on O Line – which one of the 2nd five doesn’t make it? If I was to hazard a guess, I’d say Vallos. It will be a tough call.

At QB – I still expect to see Losman at the #2 spot. He just looks a lot more comfortable back there. Can’t wait for Saturday.
