07:57 PM ET 02.28 | The complete and total ramifications of the Alex Smith trade to Kansas City have not yet been felt but there seems to be something brewing. It was speculated as soon as the trade happened that the Niners were gearing up to make a run at Darrelle Revis due to the fact they're now overloaded with draft picks for this April's NFL Draft. But while rumors of a Revis-to-Niners trade were shot down this morning by Chris Mortensen, the idea that the 49ers will put together a package of picks for an established star hasn't gone away. Here's the thing about the 49ers: they're ready to win a Super Bowl now. Jim Harbaugh does not need to load up on rookie talent to secure the longevity of the success the Niners have been achieving lately. Sure, the salary cap will complicate things and it's not a bad idea to get young, talented players on the cheap, but it doesn't make sense if you're serious about returning to the Super Bowl and winning it.

Which means leave Harvin alone. He's got hands of stone and misses every other game with a migraine.
