I was reading this with a wtf going through my head until I got to the end and saw Chubb, Lewis and Peppers. Was thinkin you had it out for Michigan players.

I think Jordan Leggett has the potential to be a high pick if he really commits to his blocking. He improved a lot this season but is definitely more of an off the line TE. He will have lots of single coverage given the WR talent at Clemson.

lol no, haven't gotten a chance to check out Lewis and Peppers yet, definitely going to be top 5-10 at their positions.

Chubb wise, I haven't either, I have a good understanding of him, but don't want to just base it off of that I want to see his game tape before I rank him.

Underrated: Davon Godchaux DT LSU.

Listed at 6'4 288; VERY hard to move and disengages from blocks very well. Takes on a lot of double teams. Very thick lower body. Usually pushes an OL well into the backfield on one-on-one blocks. Good swim move.

Looks like a starting DT in the NFL to me. And a good one.

Here's a so-early-it's-kind-of-ridiculous mock draft I'd like to see happen:

*Niners get a top-7 pick again (hoping for the #2 overall and Myles Garrett is a little much, so here's my plan B)
*Niners trade high 1 for mid 1 and a 2 & a 4.
*Niners trade 2a and 3 for a late 1

1a: Charles Harris, DE / OLB MizzU
1b: Corey Davis WR Western Michigan
2b: Bucky Hodges, TE Virginia Tech
4a: an ILB or a RB
4b: Ditto
5-7: BPA

Add John Hankins, a NT (Ian Williams or maybe even Poe if the Niners have to spend some money), an ILB depending on the draft, possibly a WR / KR who gets cut...
...And maybe even a starting guard (Niners could afford all of these things), and they'd be well on their way to being as good as 2011 again within a year (mediocre QB play at best probably).

There's a LB I would call a sleeper except that the only reason he didn't play much is the gluttony of talent Alabama has on defense:

Rashaan Evans, LB Alabama


He just covers a lot of ground really quickly. Listed at 6'3 225 as a freshman, but I'm sure he's gained some weight since then. Even more than Reuben Foster & Reggie Ragland (both huge hitters), he has the kind of explosive burst that could make him special. Granted, he's listed at a lower weight, but I don't think it's too much lower. I don't know if the team is going to use him as a rush OLB opposite Tim Williams or an ILB, but if he's an ILB, he'll be one on whom I'll keep a close eye. I think they're going to use him as an OLB though...

I also like his personality a little more than Reuben Foster. Foster had a nightmare of an upbringing, and it's hard for some people to shake that. Evans seems a little more positive & upbeat.

Could he be the next Jamie Collins??? (who happens to be a FA at the end of the year BTW).
