Is apparent now that the 9ers definitely doesn't like to draft players with character issues.
Da'Rick Rogers is one, or may be we could have drafted Maquess Wilson (who can ball big time) too, but he also has character problems. So, he ended up being drafted by the Bears in the 7th.
The only recent exception is Percy Harvin if we indeed went after him before the Seahawks signed him.

Exactly I applaud the organization we are built like a family we don't need NO distractions
Seattle is going to have a step down while the Rams will be a step up imo

Seattle isn't going a step down they still have that defense, Marshawn, Russell and Harvin.

Signed as a UDFA with the Giants.

Yea, that's a bit disappointing, I think there were still some pretty decent undrafted free agent WRs, I know we signed some unknown guy, but may be we could have considered Marcus Davis and Tyrone Goard.

I'm not disappointed at all...we got Patton, a terrific WR with no baggage. Baalke grabbed some good looking UDFA's...Marquardt, Purcell, Omameh and Okoye. I trust his judgement.

Would like to see this--hate to see talent wasted, let alone a life, if that's whats happening.

Maybe he has all these issues because his name is "Da'Rick". I'd be angry too, but I'd change my name. Maybe he doesn't know that he can?

Maybe his legal name is actually Rick? And people keep saying..."Ya gotta like da Rick!"

What is up with this guy? What type of character issues were teams so concerned with? Did he murder someone or something? How does a 2-3rd round talent go undrafted like that... He must have done something really bad.

Maybe it was something in the Interview process that just sent up Red Flags.
