Solidg2000/WildTurkey 49ers draft 1.0 | Page 3

Last year, these were my choices for our 49ers 2009 Draft 1st Michael Crabtree 2nd Connor Barwin 3rd Shonn Greene 4th Louis Vasquez 5th Jasper Brinkley 6th Chris Baker 7th Alex Boone Comp pick 5thDavid Bruton 7thKhalif Mitchell I think after one season I do believe I did a pretty good job picking up talent and difference makers on both sides of the field. But even with that I only got one pick right (2 were picked up as UDFA). So what the hell, Lets do this again. 1st Round 13 C.J. Spiller | RB/WR/KR/PR | Clemson What Spiller brings to the table is that spark that can take over a game in one play. Whether it be returning a kickoff, being on the field as our #3/4 WR or giving Gore a breather, Spiller can change a game. CJ Spiller is everything Reggie Bush wanted to be. Or to make it easier, CJ Spiller is what Reggie Bush can be, if he ever starts breaking tackles 16/17 Taylor Mays | Safety | USC My original choice was OT. I do believe everyone's thinking OT in the 1st, but after thinking about it, I decided to take a unique route. The consensus safety selection is Earl Thomas. When I see Earl Thomas, I see Mike Huff. So I decided to take the zones most underrated player. He has the size, he has the speed, and he has the tools. I am of the belief that the 1st round is for play makers and Mays can be our Bob Sanders 2nd Round 17 Vladimir Ducasse | OT/OG | UMass He's big, He's strong, and he's raw. The longer he plays the better he will get. He is no where near his ceiling and can easily turn out to be the best OT taken in this years draft. 3rd Round 15 Greg Hardy | DE | Ole Miss Once considered a top talent and 1st round selection. His downfall came mainly because of his health issues and inconsistent play. Even with a season cut short Hardy was the leading sack and QB pressure source for Ole Miss when he played. Talent is talent, and maybe standing him up might help him stay healthy. 4th Round 15 Ciron Black | OT/G | LSU Started 53 games at LT. Named the 2009 Jacobs Blocking Trophy, which goes to the top offensive lineman in the SEC as voted on by the league’s coaches. He isn't the greatest athlete, so some believe he will be moved either to RT or inside to OG. Scott McC loves dersitility and he gets it here adding Black and Ducasse 5th Round 14 Linval Joseph | DT | East Carolina Excellent size for a NT. Every year in college his stats have continued to get better and better. Came out as a Junior, would of possibly gone much higher if he would of stayed. His mistake is our gain. 6th Round 13 Clifton Geathers | DE | South Carolina Excellent size and has excellent blood lines to go along with it. His older brother is a OT for the Bengals, and his uncle was an All-Pro DL 7th Round 17 Sherrick McManis | CB | Northwestern Good size and speed, fighting through injuries yet still managed to earned first-team all-Big Ten honors from the media (and second-team status from the coaches). And his nickname is Batman.

I'm not huge on mays but all the hate is a little much. He was on a defense that lost a lot of talent to the NFL. USC had a lot of holes beyond Taylor mays. I don't think black falls into the 4th but he would be a great value pick in the 4th. I'd rather have gilyard or mccluster in the 2nd or Shipley in the 3rd and a guard in the other round.

I give credit when credit is due.

CJ RB spiller would solve a lot of problems with 3rd downs.
he is by my thinking the biggest need player for this team.
Seahawks will grabe him with ther second 1st rounder before our second 1st rounder.

taylor mays S solves a captain for our defense.
He is an athelete and can be taught coverage but is a high risk due to his cockieness.

Vladimir Ducasse RT would have to deliver at RT but if he did three solid picks

Greg Hardy I will be honest I havent seen much of him execpt on utbe lights but what I have he might take time to develope at outside linebackerbut could come on strong by the end of of his first year.

Ciron Black OT/G I like your phlosophy of drafing two player at positions of need RT
he could make for a technicly sound gaurd LG

Linval Joseph NT| space eater 6 6 330 possible

creative draft it was refreshing

thank you

Yup. Only thing is we wouldn't have the 2nd 1st rounder for this year. But that would've been a really good draft.

Never have I seen a guy take more bad angles on tackles than Mays. He seems fundamentally unsound. Too much hype IMO.

I can live with Spiller but would prefer a 1st round OT.

I do believe we need OL help, but I don't really like the options early on in the draft, very overrated OT In my opinion

I do hope we solve our need via the FA then I would go
Spiller
Mays
Mt Cody
Hardy
Mr pick 6 Alterraun Verner CB
Marshall Newhouse OG/OT
Geathers
Kelton Tindal WR Newberry

There's no decent OT's out there in Free Agency. You gotta draft one.

Negatives: ...Not a real ballhawk. Misses plays because he is out of position. Does not read keys well and diagnose. Struggles covering man deep. Plays out of control and lacks great change of direction... Gets carried away. Prefers setting up a well-timed hit to break up a play over going for an interception...

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfldraft/tracker/player?id=6771

definatly not the same player, but a good way to show why over scouting can be bad
I love how they say he has "great football intelligence" in one sentence and then later how he often plays "out of position". wtf?! Does anyone know how this stuff gets written? I mean, it doesn't even have an author. I bet it's some intern making $9/hr that has to cut and paste a zillion of these things together for the website.
