Everyone is talking about drafting a qb. and yes we obviously desperately need a qb. But what about other positions rb,oline,cb? There are many quality players in the 2nd and 3rd rounds since we will most likely go qb in the first. I think we need a running back very bad. Im tired of our rbs who are nothing special and its a highlight if they break a 10 yard run we need some explosiveness. Any prospects at rb or wr that could be in our reach?

I think our "nothing special" RBs have been affected by a pass-first minded OC, mediocre run-blocking offensive line, and having to play catch up in a couple of games. We definitely need to draft (or acquire through FA) quality depth for the o-line and definitely look at a quality FS (since Atogwe has been hampered by injuries).

Don't usually like yahoo sports columns, but here ya go, if you are so inclined:
49ers defensive tackle doesn’t think Luck would be No. 1 pick in SEC - Shutdown Corner - NFL*Blog - Yahoo! Sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/shutdown_corner/post/49ers-defensive-tackle-doesn-8217-t-think-Luck-?urn=nfl-wp10439)
Must........resist........urge.......to.....scream ......hold off.....seizure of.....frustration.
Deep breaths, deep breaths, deep breaths.
ARE YOU FING KIDDING ME!?!?!? REALLY? REALLY? IS THAT SHITTY BACKWATER CONFERENCE REALLY THAT GOOD? DID BOISE STATE THE TEAM THAT WOULD HAVE A LOOSING RECORD IN THE PRECIOUS SEC NOT STOMP UGA IN ATLANTA? KELLEN MOROE COMPLETED 82% OF HIS PASSES AGAINST THEM! DIDN'T AUBURN BARELY BEAT OREGON IN THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP? ARE YOU TOUCHED IN THE HEAD? YOU SON OF A FUUUUUUUUUUU ITCH! CAN YOU NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE ARE GOOD TEAMS OUTSIDE OF THE GOOD OLE SEC!?!?!?!
DO YOU NOT REMEMBER THAT JAMARCUS RUSSELL DOMINATED YOUR CONFERENCE WHEN IT WAS AT IT'S PEAK?
And by the way the best QB's in the league right now are mostly coming out of the PAC 10 and ACC. Not to mention 2 out of the 3 top QB's right now came out of the Big 10. Not the SEC . My God. Will the overrating of this conference ever end? It's a great conference, probably the best all around but this blanket "Oh if X played in the SEC" crap is getting really freaking old.

Lol, nope. Sorry, it's a disease thats spreading rampant right now. The art of taking a player or team in college football that's having success outside the SEC and saying something like "Oh well, if they done played in the SEC blah blah blah." I have to deal with these hypothetical 'if' statements on a daily basis.
Now I really want to see Boise State or Stanford play LSU or Alabama in the National Championship game, even though the set up is a crock.
And it goes without saying but just in case, 'the shame on you' and the "are you fing kidding me" stuff was directed at Ricky Jean not you.

Could add Vick to the ACC if you want to look at it that way, though he played in the big east at the time. Pretty good list though Ruhskins, by no means is the SEC a QB conference.
