“Taco Charlton, Jourdan Lewis, two great young men because they truly want to be good,” Harbaugh said. “They’re serious about being good. And they’ve been put to the test. They’ve had to do the hard stuff. Football’s not an easy game. It’s a hard, rough, tough sport and you’ve got to pay the price when you get on the field. Talk about honesty. It’s, are you good enough or are you not? And you’ve got to be prepare for when you’ve got the opportunity to do that. Both Taco and Jourdan will do a great job because they like football.”

One of the Michigan players' draft assets is that nearly all of them have performed at a high level on the field, not just as players who tested well.

“They like to practice football, they like to do the dirty, tough stuff and they’ve got great courage great physical skills and they’ve done it in games,” Harbaugh said. “The things I like about both of those guys: you’re not just looking at guys who have potential. They’ve realized their potential.”

Loving football is the number one trait Will McClay says they look for in a prospect. Not surprising to hear this from Coach Harbaugh.

I agree. Passion for the game, along with physical talents are the prime ingredients to promote the success of any football player.

Taco Charlton and Jourdan Lewis both embody those traits. Who would realize that any better than their college coach? Nobody.

Keep drafting Michigan players, and if Garrett doesn't rise above his playoff mediocrity in the next few seasons, we will have bait to lure Harbaugh in. ;)

For the record, I do want Garrett to suceed.

I have my money on Urban Meyer if we ever go in another direction book it

I'd take Harbough over Garrett RIGHT NOW. He'd come in and ha e more playoff success than Garrett would almost immediately.

Uh, why? He was one of the reasons the 49ers imploded after looking like they could be one of the better teams of the decade.

He took a QB that fit the 49ers offense well, and went with a gimmicky loser QB who doesn't care about football and pretended he was a franchise guy. I don't care they went to the Super Bowl that year, it tore that team apart and destroyed the locker room after removing Smith.

He can stay in college and teach boys - his bro should return there as well, since it seems he can't build a team after relying on past legends like Lewis and Reed

I think there is a growing number of people that would. Garrett has finally flipped the roster to his own guys, with the exception of a few. I am looking for that success within the next few seasons, or it will be time. Imo

What? Harbaugh is twenty times the coach Garrett is- both Harbaughs

All Garrett does is clap and mismanage the clock

What exactly has he done? What did he do while he was a coach? Stop beating your chest for this guy.

All he did in 2012 was take a true franchise guy in Alex Smith, remove him, and set in place a gimmicky offense for short term success. For 3 and a half quarters of that Super bowl, it was one of the worst I have ever seen, and Kap couldn't hit a simple throw at the end to tie it.

So what has he done to be "twenty times" the coach? Have locker room fighting? When he saw the team on a decline and players turning against him, he fled back to college?

Get out of here with this nonsense. The dude is part of the reason the 49ers are back in the dirt.

I think its a good thing that we have drafted two players from the same school with our top 3 picks. The fact that we had the opportunity to do that. Its awesome. And on the same side of the ball no less.

Its got to be a psychological boost for them.

They will feed off and motivate one another. They've played the game together. And they will bring that hunger, camaraderie, and drive to the other rookies and even maybe to some of the vets.

Their tweets between one another after the draft. Like.....I'm on my way Tac. And Tac is like....Welcome Home Brother.

Wonderful.

Wait so he almost won a Super Bowl with a guy who turned out to be a terrible QB- and he might have won the Super Bowl if his quarterback could hit a simple throw. But right, Garrett is way better as a coach- uh, remind me again of what Garrett has done?????

And lol at thinking Alex Smith is a true franchise guy.

Sorry. This isn't really a debate.

Ill leave this here so you can read up on the "nonsense"

He "almost won a super bowl" with an offense the NFL didn't figure out until the following year. Which was the point I made in my last comment, now moving on...

"And lol at thinking Alex Smith is a true franchise guy"

Alex Smith since 2011

13-3
6-2-1
11-5
9-7
11-5
12-4

Yeah, I'm going to say he's a franchise guy.

As for what Garrett has done - I don't know, let's see, rebuild an offensive line and make it the leagues best. Get rid of a franchise QB, just to find what many of you believe to be another franchise guy in the fourth round.

And LOL an opinion piece

The simple fact is: the decision to remove Smith and start Kap was Harbaugh's move. There was players in the locker room against him. There was an internal power struggle. And this "great coach" instead of finding another team in the NFL, he ran back to college.

http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/f...-harbaugh-clinically-insane-article-1.2192980

“He does a great job of giving you that spark, that initial boom,” 49ers guard Alex Boone said in his "Real Sports" interview. “But after a while, you just want to kick his a--. . . . He just keeps pushing you, and you’re like, ‘Dude, we got over the mountain. Stop. Let go.’ He kind of wore out his welcome."

"“I think he just pushed guys too far. He wanted too much, demanded too much, expected too much. You know, ‘We gotta go out and do this. We gotta go out and do this. We gotta go out and do this.’ And you’d be like, ‘This guy might be clinically insane. He’s crazy.’ "

By the way, Boone was defending Harbaugh at the time of the rumors that Jim was losing the locker room. His stance changed once he was no longer the coach.

Stop propping up mediocrity. And I'm not even the biggest Garrett fan, which says a lot about Harbaugh. I like team builders, not destroyers.

LOL at ignoring the fact he took a Kaepernick lead team to the Super Bowl to fit your agenda. Garrett hasn't even gotten out of the divisional round, and he's coached here longer than Harbaugh was in SF. How does it taste? Like cinnamon?

Again, he got to the Super Bowl, and lost, during the read option year. It was a gimmicky offense defenses didn't figure out. The offense got consistently worse until they went 8-8 and he was booted.

Garrett has been a coach longer? Yeah, he has - which he has steadily built one of the stronger offenses in the league. Harbaugh took over a team with a lot of great players, and in 4 years, completely dismantled that and is now out of the league.

One is a team builder, the other is a destroyer. Actually around 2014, I saw a lot of 49er fans calling him "Wreck-it-Ralph"

Don't try comparing a guy who couldn't hang for 4 years in the league for a guy who has been a HC since 2011 and an OC since 2007. Someone losing a Super Bowl with a gimmicky flash in the pan offense is not an achievement.

And I'm not a huge Garrett fan, I think he's an okay coach. I think Harbaugh was a cancer and ran a franchise into the ground. That is not me saying 49ers management didn't play a part either, they are trash as well.

Try again. Maybe this time, less homophobic insults, Stephen Colbert.

49ers were robbed in that SB. That was PI at the goal line all the way.
