I hope Mixon pans out; it’s difficult to judge him behind this Line. But so far, I’m not all that impressed. He does show some ability here & there, so I’m optimistic.
Mixon, Bernard and Hill HAVE talent. I KNOW that. They have been ...irrelevant.
I Saw Bill Walsh turn around a floundering Niner franchise. They did NOT have a lot of High #1 picks so.. they got guys in the mid rounds and turned them into ALL STARS. Walsh was a genius on his own (West Coast Offense = Walsh)... but a BIG deal was a GREAT group of Assistants (many went on to be very good Head Coaches.
I could do a nice list of Niners who were round 3 and later. Joe Montana, Charles Haley, Jeff Fuller, Jesse Sapoulo ,Ray Wersching, Dwaine Board,Brent Jones,Roger Craig,Tom Rathman, Dwight Clark, Fred Quinlan, Jeff Stover, John Taylor, Guy McIntyre. That's just name's I can think of easy.
