They traded their 2008 1st round pick (plus a 2007 4th rounder) to NE to move up to take OT Joe Staley toward the end of the first round. That 2008 pick is looking more and more like a top-5 pick with SF's increasing ineptitude. And figuratively rubbing salt in that wound, NE traded SF's 4th round pick to Oakland to land Randy Moss.

Being a Skins fan doesn't look so bad by comparison. Our future looks much brighter than theirs, not that that means anything.
Soup, let me tell you something, we're better off than more than half, count them, NFL teams right. We 'aint happy about a lot of things right now, but things could be worse.

SF? So funny how people rarely talk about their FA busts. I'll throw Philly in that bunch too.
