The 49ers have signed 26-year old QB Troy Smith to a 1-year deal.  Smith played in 4 games (0 starts) for the Ravens last season and he completed 5 of 9 passes (55.6%) for 24 yards with 0 TD passes and 1 INT (21.3 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 8 times for 31 yards (3.9 ypc) with 1 TD run.  Smith has now played in 14 games (2 starts) in his three years in the NFL and he has completed 48 of 89 passes (53.9%) for 558 yards with 3 TD passes and 1 INT (79.7 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 29 times for 109 yards (3.8 ypc) with 2 TD runs.  Smith will be a huge improvement over Nate Davis as the Niners’ #3 QB in 2010.

    I would like to see Haynesworth in S F this would solidify an already potent defense.

    A Randy Moss coming off the bench and playing along Crabtree would spell superbowl bound 49ers.

    Well G, if the 49ers are willing to pony up a 2nd round pick they can have Haynesworth. As far as Randy Moss goes, he will be catching passes from Tom Brady this year. He isn’t going anywhere.
