I find it extremely unlikely we use all 14 picks.
i would not mind trading up to get a good safety or d line man and then maybe trading away some picks for next year or the year after
We need wr's too only wr's under contract for next year are Crabtree and Jenkins....we need speed also a t.e

My math has us at 13 picks. We used two picks to acquire Boldin and McCoy.

Boldin?

We have enough WRs

Ctree, Boldin, HAM

With decent back up

Williams

and potential great back ups

Locket, Jenkins

I agree that we have plenty of WR's for this next ONE year, but what about after that?

Crabtree -- Everybody is talking about how we are not going to be able to pay him two years from now.
Boldin -- Is only signed for a year.
Ham -- Is an unknown, coming from a devastating knee injury.
Locket -- A practice squad player.
Jenkins -- Has done nothing.
Williams -- I like Williams, but he is also coming from an injury.

I LOVE having Boldin and Crabtree as our starters, but down the road is an unknown, and depth is an unknown.

Boldin said he will sign an extension, and Manningham isn't going anywhere
Nnamdi will be a top 5 cornerback this season. Book it.

I think he said he is open to signing one. But this could free up at least 3 million if he does

Isn't a bump and run cornerback much more familiar with playing one side of the field over the other? In this case, NA would battle Brown for playing time? Maybe Brown can play LCB?

I agree. I think he got exposed in Philly because they just weren't good enough around him. NA won't have that problem here. He is going to have an All-Pro defense that has his back and he will get make a great comeback. Maybe not Revis or dare I say Sherman levels, but top 5 is a lock. The best part is we didn't pay top 5.

if hes a bump and run corner he should be able to play all over the field. man to man.
Here's what I don't understand. We know Nmamdi was a no-risk signing and there are a lot of reasons he might not make the team (starting CBs already in place, no special teams ability, etc). But what if comes in and proves the PHI years were a fluke and he's a top-flight RCB??

Tarell Brown loses his job? Culliver or Rogers try FS? Who covers the slot?
