I enjoy Wes Bunting because he doesn't just follow the herd, and has reasons for his ranking of players. He rarely does Mocks but here are his first 3 picks for the 49ers: http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Week-Long-Mock-Round-Three.html 30 Stephen Hill WR Hill is going to need to become a more consistent route runner. However, at 6-5 he showcases some natural short-area quickness to his game and knows how to go up and get the football vertically. He's one of the draft's elite size/speed combos at the receiver spot and his stock is on the rise. 61 Casey Hayward CB A smart, productive corner who can consistently make plays on the football. He's not a guy who will consistently hold up in man on the outside in the NFL. However, he's shown the ability to routinely get early jumps on the football and come down with the catch. Looks like one of the safer prospects in the draft as a cover two type guy. 92 Robert Turbin RB Physically, he reminds me some of New York Jets RB Shonn Greene. But as a runner, he looks more natural as a zone guy who he can use his cut back ability to pick his way through traffic, square his shoulders and then attack daylight. Has the skill set to mature into a starter at the next level, but because of his lack of a great burst, he doesn't strike me as a guy who is ever going to have a real gaudy yards per carry average. Nevertheless, he should be able to keep you ahead of the chains.

Hill may not be a good wr

We may not be able to carry another RB Or one that could beat out hunter Jacobs gore

There's no beef. I think the 49ers will add someone in the trenches. Hill? If the hype is right he'll be gone by 30.

I agree. I think he is not going to be much of a factor for at least a year or two and I just think he ends up being a solid big play guy who gets you 25-30 catches, 4-5 TD's a year. Nothing worthy of a 1st rounder.

Looking at the outcome of his draft, the following picks would have been MUCH better for the 49ers:

1) Coby Fleener
2) Brandon Brooks
3) Brian Quick
4) Josh Norman or Miles Burris

Like the draft overall. Really would like to see the Niners get Hill this Thursday night!

Not too sure why people are wanting the team to draft what would be the teams 5th RB on the roster before day 3. Wait till next year and draft a RB round 1-3.
