First off, congrats to Iupati for making the all rookie team. I did a round by round break down, and I was surprised at how many first round picks panned out in 2010.
11- first rounders
6 second rounders
1- 3rd rounder
1- 4th rounder
Rest UDFA's.
Baalke drafted well, the only whiff in my opinion was trading a 4th to go up to get Anothony Davis. Bulaga could have been the choice at present spot or A. Davis.
Amazing to me how many quality DE's are dropping into round 2. I guess the switch to rush OLB's has made 4-3 DE's drop on draft boards.

Many people thought Bulaga projected as an OG at the NFL level. In addition, he isn't a mauler type offensive linemen. When we drafted the OL in the 1st round, we were looking for the physical mauler types that fit our scheme at the time.
Thankfully, the Harbaugh hire means that they still fit.
