Fair enough.
Solution would have been to:
1) offer SF a 5th rounder for Alex Smith. Commit to Smith as a caretaker QB for a year or two while we develop our own QB. I'll take the lower floor to get the higher ceiling. Maybe up to a 4th rounder to beat ARIZ, otherwise, let ARIZ have him.
2) Draft Geno (he has all the tools and is accuarate, but needs some coaching)
3) Draft another QB in late rounds (e.g. Dysert), just in case
4) Use 2nd round to draft CB or safety
5) Use 3rd round to draft ILB or TE
6) Keep Winston and sign FA guard (OL now set)
7) Tell people I love Cassel and then trade him for anything I can get
