Some people have noted that the 49ers now have 2 #1 (overall) picks and a Heisman trophy award recipient playing quarterback on their roster. I can't help but think how unprecedented it would have been had the Niners signed former starting Raider quarterback JaMarcus Russell instead of Troy Smith; imagine how unique that would have been: THREE #1 OVERALL picks playing quarterback for the same team. I emphasize overall because they're not simply first-round picks but they were each taken numero uno in their respective draft classes. That is amazing to contemplate... not a good decision (Russell is most definitely not a Singletary kind of guy), but pretty cool nonetheless!
Can't wait for the season to start this Sunday...
