We have a playmaker now. He just can't cover and loses his jock trying to tackle Jake Delhomme.

I never got past that play. Can't look at him without thinking of it...

I am telling you, if we can combine Rogers and Hall we'd have the perfect CB. LOL.

Blah.. So don't care about his departure. Team needs to wipe the stank off of the last few years and he was part of what created the smell in the first place. Niners D will blow this year.

There isn't anything new I can add to this thread, so I'm just going to agree with everyone else. Sounds like he wanted out of here, I'dve been fine with him coming back, but if the best he can do is 1 year for 4 mil, then maybe he'll realize the market isn't what he thought it would be.

Instead of getting Nnamdi money, he's signed a one year deal with the Niners. Probably worth around $4 million.

For that kind of deal I wish we would have kept him.

Still, he had some serious delusions of grandeur. He thought he was going to command top flight money, and instead couldn't even muster a multi-year deal. Memo to Carlos- teams don't throw money at cornerbacks with no hands.

I agree as far as the skill set comparison, but Wilson is 4 years younger, so I'd say it leans in our favor.

Word. Plus Wilson seems to be on the upswing, while Rogers has been consistently inconsistent for all these years.

we'll to be fair what was he supposed to think, after all he has been a skin since being drafted

Rogers was picked 9th
C.Bailey was picked 7th

Los wasn't even close to the player CB is/was.. I'd consider him a bust

Yeah it's crazy to think Rogers is already 30. Dude's only been in the league 6 years. It's safe to say he's not going to get better than he already is, whereas the upside with Wilson is plenty.

IMO I consider a bust to be someone picked high and JaMarcus Russell'd it. I think Rogers is a severe underachiever. I mean, he did have some good playing time, not great but good, other than he couldn't catch.

yeah i don't think he was a bust because he was able to play and start in the nfl, he was just over valued at the draft
