2007 San Francisco 49ers Predictions & Season Preview
The season is drawing near so get ready with our
2008 San Francisco 49ers
NFL Picks & Predictions!
For the first time in a long time, the
hopes are high for San Francisco 49ers fans are high
heading into the 2007 season. Unfortunately, Jimmy
Boyd and his staff feel that this is going to be one of
the most over-valued teams in the league this year.
The team had an outside shot of making the playoffs last
season, but faltered down the stretch. With a
young nucleus on offense and an upgraded defense, many
analysts are calling for the 49ers to make the playoffs
and contend. We say not so fast as this team isn't
sneaking up on anyone in 2007.

Alex Smith was given a lot of praise last year and he did
improve on his 11 picks, 1 TD rookie season. However, he only threw for
2,890 yards and had 16 picks to go with his 16 touchdowns. Plus this
season he will be without Norv Turner, who many said was responsible for his
growth as a quarterback. Everyone is expecting big things out of this kid
this season, but we just don't see it. Frank Gore was a stud last season
in gaining 1,695 yards on only 312 carries, racking up nine touchdowns along the
way. He got his big contract, so will he stay hungry? He needs to
stay healthy, which may be trouble since he's had knee surgeries in college,
because there isn't a solid backup on the team. The receiving corps was a
weakness a season ago, so San Fran brought in Darrell Jackson, Ashely Lelie, and
drafted Jason Hill with their third round pick. Jackson has been plagues
with dropped passes and Lelie has failed everywhere he's went. At tight
end, Vernon Davis could develop into the best tight end in the game.
The defense got a major overhaul and it needed one after
finishing 26th in the league a season ago. Bryant Young will be starting
his 14th season with the 49ers at end and brought in Aubrayo Franklin as nose
tackle to help stuff the run. It'll be a mix up who starts on the other
side of Young. At linebacker there are a pair of new faces in Tully
Banta-Cain from New England and Patrick Willis, their first round draft pick out
of Mississippi. They'll be paired up with Brandon Moore, who was the team
leader with 92 tackles last season, and second year player Manny Lawson.
The secondary got the most help with the addition of Nate Clements from Buffalo
and Michael Lewis from the Eagles. Walt Harris was a Pro Bowl corner last
season and Mark Roman played better than expected a year go. These four
give San Francisco a decent secondary.
Best bet of the win total season is on the
UNDER for San Francisco this season. Jimmy Boyd
honestly feels like this team is going to win less than
eight games and believes there is more than a 50% chance
of them doing so. This leaves us with a great
value when picking up the underdog money on the 49ers
this season. Pound this win total and go against
the general public. If you really want to make
