5th round) Ted Ginn - KR / PR / from time to time deep threat.
This is an A- draft already. It's already exceeded my expectations by far.
I went with a B+, and I feel that was slightly generous. I'd say a solid B is suitable. The reason for that is I think the trade from 13 to 11 to get Anthony Davis was a move that was completely unnecessary and basically just cost us a 4th round pick. I firmly believe Davis would have been there 2 picks later and we could have landed him with our original slot. There are many questions surrounding this guy and chances are we could have even got him at 17 if we chose to go with Iupati at 13 instead, so the trade to 11 was a boneheaded move in my opinion.
If we would have held the 13th pick and chose Davis there, I'd say the Niners deserve an A.
