Why is everyone mocking us the honey badger?

I think most people are taking one shot at a high risk, high reward pick somewhere in the draft because we have so many damn picks. Its usually this guy or Lattimore. Clearly they are a risk for different reasons, but risks none the less. I chose fifth...Though I would be ok with 4th, I think its a waste to go after a guy who could be a total wash any earlier. Same with Lattimore, I wouldnt take a guy who wont play this year and may never pan out before round 4.

It all depends on who is still available.
There are always guys who slide for one reason or another and it'll be very interesting to see who might fall into our laps.

I chose third possibly 4th though. i think part of it is Ed Donatell likes the kid, hes pretty damn dedicqted to the game, he determined to play for us and he could fill needs for us whether returning punts playing cb or playing safety. Hes extremely talented. Im more shocked that fans are obsessed with him being a "head case" and acting as if no one on this team has ever acted that way before.

Your thread title doesn't make sense.

Not one of those choices is a possible answer to your question.

I can see taking Lattimore...because he really wouldn't have to play this coming season. in 2014, Gore will be another year older, more wear 'n tear, so that pick makes sense. As for Mathieu, he's a different kind of risk. LSU kicked him off the team last year because of his drug habits...he was also arrested for it. Guess it boils down to Harbaalke being convinced he's a changed man...if so, they might take him, but I'd say no earlier than late 3rd/early 4th rd. A lot of teams will be very leery of him...

If he's still there a 4th round pick 3 rd round is too early there will be a lot of good talent in the 3rd TE AND NT FOR NINERS .......THEY HAVE HIM GOING TO THE NINERS Because we have so many picks we can take a chance and they asked him who he would want to be drafted by he said 49ers...

Because we have a lot of picks and strong veterans so we can afford to take a gamble on a player that could be one of the most exciting and explosive players in the league.
It sounds like he's given up drugs and said marijuana isn't fun anymore.
I don't think he's a headcase.

I would wait until the 5th or at the very highest the comp pick at the end of the 4th. With teams looking for good citizens it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't get drafted at all.
