[QUOTE="Cal2GreenBay, post: 204651, member: 682"] McCarthy commented that he felt Smith was the "more athletic" of the two. Since then, he has said (as Packers coach)...that he's been impressed w/Rodgers' athleticism and he said he didn't see this element of him when he was back at CAL. Rodger's response was that he wasn't required to use his athleticism in the system he was in and now he gets to show it [Dallas game.] In the actual draft..McCarthy wanted Rodgers because he felt he was more "NFL ready". He proved to be right. But Mike Nolan wanted Smith and overruled him. Again..rehashed history that's been talked about over and over (same as the weak argument by Fuzz of Aaron dropping in the draft...but Brett Favre fell further than him..and when I present that point..everybody runs and hides and then brings that argument up again weeks later) you can find or I can send you all the San Jose Mercury news reports. Bottom line. McCarthy wanted Rodgers. Nolan wanted Smith. Nolan won..the 49ers lost. Smith Sucks..McCarthy left. [/QUOTE]
