10 Things I Think Will Happen on Draft Day | Page 3

Sunshine · 2012-04-23T22:49:42-07:00

Here are 10 things I think will happen on draft weekend: 1. Andrew Luck will go #1 (there, I got the monkey off my back) 2. Michael Brockers will be the first DT to be selected and it will be in the top 10 3. Alshon Jeffery will go in the 1st round along with Justin Blackmon, Michael Floyd and Stephen Hill 4. Ryan Tannehill will be selected BEFORE number 8 and will be the last of 3 1st round QBs 5. Chandler Jones will be selected in the top 20 picks 6. Chris Rainey, TY Hilton and Juron Criner will go on day 2 7. Coby Fleener will be on the board at #30 and will not be selected 8. The 49ers will not select at #30 9. The 49ers will draft a defensive player with their first pick 10. The 49ers will not draft a receiver on the first two days of the draft 11. (You didn't think I'd really take credit for #1 did you) Quinton Coples will not be selected in the first 20 picks So, that's my list, feel free to blast me or post some predictions of your own and get ready for some "I told you so's" because I will be sure to do the same It's been a pleasure scouting with you this year, 'Zoners...Here's to Trent, Jim and the Boys knocking one out of the park this weekend!

NICE !!!

Im on the anti-Fleener bandwagon.

Meah... I'll ride the fence until the pick is made then make it sound like I was behind that decision all along...

Screw that, Go Fleener @ 30!

I'm not on either bandwagon. I honestly don't care if we draft him or not. It would be cool if we did but he's no Jimmy Graham by any means

The 49ers have done all of their homework on Jenkins. The club interviewed him at the Senior Bowl and at the NFL scouting combine. A team representative also recently spoke to Jenkins on the phone, a source told CSNBayArea.com.

Jenkins spoke about his many interviews with NFL teams.

"They see the talent," he said. "They just want to know what kind of kid I am. I came in here (the combine) to show them I'm not a bad kid. I made a few mistakes and I learned from them. Everything I did, I did. I'm admitting it. I did it. I'm looking to put that in my past and moving forward."

Other than not having red eyes apart from monday mornings, that is pretty much it!

Don't forget, our other CB Brown was in a few bad places at the wrong time.

I hate to say this but it's almost like i don't want Fleener just to see the reaction

Good and different post.

Disagree w/3. I think the reports on his lack-a-dasical wwork ethic will hhurt him.

Agreew/4 - and Miami will move up to get him.

I don't agree w/7. If we want him, we'll have to move up to get Fleener

Agree and disagree w/8. I think we move up. We need a player to come in, play right away and get points on the board. That player is Fleener - he fits us like a glove from day 1.

Thanks for a creative post that is very different from all the others.

This^ My outside prediction... Marvin Jones selected in round one.

Meltdown. Total meltdown. Draft days on here are bad enough without the rejection of a firm favourite.

Quentin Groves for the win.

Why would we draft a defensive player with our 1st pick? To ride the pine? We have no glaring need on defense (although we will definitely need a future shutdown CB). Very few teams draft BPA, despite what they claim. They draft BPA for their position of need. We will probably do the same.

I disagree. I think we have to think about our line depth. And though I love Justin Smith, if his possible replacement (two years out) is there, we need to get him. Those positions need a couple years to develop anyway.

I do agree on the future shutdown CB, if that person is there (though we have a pretty good group). Also, I think we do need a WR if it makes sense, and I never have a problem with oline. Bascially, I'm comfortable with letting BPA play out, and I'm good with Baalke doing what he thinks is right.

Could not have put it better myself!

I think Baalke will trade up between about 18 and 25 to secure a 1st round talent.

Yeah he said he wants somone and if he's in reach, they will pull a trigger.

He has done it before. This is what makes the draft exiting. You never know where we will be selecting. We need to make a superbowl run NOW, and higher round talents at a less difficult position (Guard), will benefit us immensely.
