With the 22nd pick in the first round now under their control, the 49ers should have no guilt about taking tight end Vernon Davis with the sixth pick in the first round. The 49ers need defensive help and should be in a good position to get a linebacker or a defensive back with the 22nd pick.

The 49ers open their three-game exhibition schedule on Friday against the Green Bay Packers. It's the only preseason game they will play at Levi's Stadium, and rookie running back Ty Davis-Price (prefers Ty versus Tyrion) can't wait.
