I really believe the 49ers are going to grab either thomas, cyprien, or amerson with that first pick in the 2nd. The rest of the safeties besides vacarro are all more SS types that like to hit and aren't ballhawks
But based on talent:
1. Vacarro
2. Elam
3. Cyprien
4. Thomas
5. Swearinger

I think Cyprien is vastly overrated. I don't see what everyone is so excited about. I don't like his tackling and I don't think he's great in coverage

I want Rambo, guy is even compared to Goldson. 9ers seem to look for FS with coverage skill that can hit.
Rob Rang;
"COMPARES TO: Dashon Goldson, FS, San Francisco 49ers: Like the 49ers' standout free safety, Rambo has a tendency to make splashy plays as a pass thief and intimidating hitter but is prone to an occasional breakdown. If he can tighten up his game (and his off-field decision-making) Rambo has the talent to earn Pro Bowl consideration, just as Goldson has done for the 49ers."

Who is not prone to the occasional breakdown?
I get the vibe that Baalke is going to draft a Culliver/Goldson, a head scratcher that he plans on switching positions.
