I like Stephen Hill but not in the first round. Too risky! I remember another Hill who ran a 4.32 - 40 yard dash with good size. Ya, that would be Jason Hill and where is he now? My draft crush would be Fleener. I think he's utilized often and early if we land him. Smart kid with speed, size and knowledge of the Harbaugh offense. Creates a match up nightmare, gets opposing defense out of the box. What's not to like?

Jason Hill was 6'0'' dude. Stephen Hill has 4 inches of height on him and probably a better verticle jump and a much better blocker.

Doesn't matter! Jason Hill had a VERY good college career at Wazzu. Stephen Hill has only 49 catches and 9 TDs in his career. Like I said, I like the kid, just wouldn't spend a first rounder on only potential.

i see where youre coming from but when given the chance he has proven to be an effective WR
elite physical attributes can only get you so far but this guys work ethic and drive is very good
he wants to be good he hired a falcons ex great WR to work on his route running and footwork

Stephen Hill all the way!!! If not him than Fleener in the 1st. And have the great option of getting another big body speedster in the 2nd rd

Michael Floyd.
Best WR in the draft IMO.

Poe! Man, this D would be epic if we were able to land this kid. He's going top 15 now, IMO. Just too pricey for us. I love Ice, but this kid's upside seems better than Raji's.

Not a crush, but I think Utah State LB Bobby Wagner is a sensational player that gets very little attention. I really like the way he plays on the field. Take a look at the tape.

Based on how much I rank players compared to the trendy rankings:
QB
Kirk Cousins, Mich St - 2nd rounder IMO, love to have him
RB
Ronnie Hillman, SD State - 3rd rounder IMO, a great every down prospect
Isaiah Paed, Cincinatti - I'd take this kid late in the 2nd I'm so big on him, just love the versatiliy and ST aspect he can immediatley bring. Obviously he only will fit with certain teams though
TE
Michael Egnew, Mizzou - Apparently people thought he was slow and sluggish before the combine, but I love this guys frame, route running, hands, and ability to move in space
OL
C Ben Jones, Georgia - top center IMO
OG - Well I think DeCastro is top 10 value, but I'll pick Tony Bergstrom, Utah, if they move him from tackle to guard.
OT - not really in love with him, but how about Nate Potter of Boise State? Could be a great value pick in the mid rounds
WR
Chris Givens - really don't understand the lack of love for this guy
AJ Jenkins - another speedy 6 footer I'd love to have
D-Line
NT - how about Mike Martin, Michigan? Hidden behind Poe's insane combine was Mike Martin who was extremely productive at Michigan out of the NT position
DE - Mercilus Whitney, very early on I had him ranked as a 1st rounder when a lot of people didn't even know about him! So I'll stick with him.
3-4 OLB
I'll go with Ronnell Lewis. He is more in the mold of Ahmad Brooks then Aldon Smith, not a pass rush specialist.
3-4 ILB
I'll go with the local product of Mychael Kendricks
CB
Casey Hayward
Omar Bolden - just because I gotta pick someone from my alma mater
S
Justin Bethel, Presbyterian - Gotta roll with one small school prospect
QB
Kirk Cousins, Mich St - 2nd rounder IMO, love to have him

I'm liking Coryell Judie (CB) and Kyle Wilber (DE/OLB) as development players.
