49ers draft, only from west coast schools.

rd 1 -- marqise lee, wr, usc. thoroughbred characteristics. will shine if all goes well. a little frail, though.

rd 2 -- davante adams, wr, fresno st. could easily be a #1 in a few good years, or the best #2 with mediocre progress.

rd 2 -- deone bucannon, ss, wash st. good body. physicality. but, unsophisticated play. development=stud starter.

rd 3 -- marcus martin, c, usc. west coast water buffalo suited for dealing with nfl nose tackles. needs tech work.

rd 3 -- rashaad reynolds, cb, oregon st. very good player, but crappy backpedal hurts his game some. thus, rd 3.

rd 3 -- trent murphy, de/olb, stanford. aldon insurance. high-rev, somewhat stiff, edge guy.

rd 4 -- shane skov, ilb, stanford. poor-man's mike singletary. old body pushes him to 4th rd.

rd 5 -- bene benwikere, cb/s, san jose st. very smooth athlete. versatile. not a lot of wasted steps. good head.

rd 7 -- kevin graf, ot/g, usc. strong, athletic, underrated tackle. not fat, it's all functional weight (310 lbs).

rd 7 -- ben gardner, de, stanford. undersized, strong, high effort player. kind of like kevin f a g a n from days of old.

rd 7 -- colt lyerla, te, oregon. can develop into one of the better nfl tight ends if he wants to.

the west coast has talent, ehh?

Can also use the "Pac-12 Mock" (and yes, Fresno/SJ State is in MWC, but out of 11 picks, 9 are from Pac-12)

Two issues:

1. If you snag Martin in 3rd, why do we need Graf?

2. If Rashaad Reynolds is a bad back-pedaller, and we play a lot of man to man, why would we waste a pick on him?

Overall, not terrible for only limiting to three states and definitely improves offense vastly (lets just hope we can outscore teams since our current starting CBs are Brock/Cook/Cox after this mock)
Interestingly Harbaugh hasn't drafted a Stanford player yet and you have him drafting 3. Actually wouldn't be the worst draft we ever had but it is a little weak at CB which is a priority need.
Nice idea for a themed mock. Good mock but I agree with McBeat that the CB's are a little weak.
