When I first looked at your mock, I thought the kid from Indiana was the CB Colvin from Oklahoma. I was thinking you only drafted one WR but I do agree with your statement. In all mocks I've done, I've taken 2 WR's and 2 CB's each time, and always drafted Verrett and Moncrief in that order. Since the offseason began, I've held true to the belief the Niners should draft 2 WR's and 2 CB's, with 1 of each that can contribute right away. I have a lot of confidence in Verrett and Moncrief and truly believe both these kids can have an impact on this team. I like Moncrief for the sure fact that he has the ability to stretch the field. I'll also like to know if you would take a flyer on a Specialist such as Dri Archer?
I thought about Archer, but decided that I'd rather have Barrow and Latimer instead. Barrow because I think depth at ILB is a must if either Wilhoite or Willis get hurt, Latimer because I think they really need to focus on developing WR's. If I felt like they were going to move James and soon, then I think Archer would be a more likely selection, if not him then possibly John Brown later on in the draft.
