Why sign Vince Young? Packers didn't even want him after they signed him for training camp, and went with Seneca Wallace and Tolzien instead. I'd rather keep McCoy than have Vince.
Would be awesome

Vince is a very capable back up. The reason Green Bay didn't keep him is because they didn't give him enough time. They brought him in like a week before the season started. Vince has proven he can win games so I don't know why teams don't give him a chance. He could win games for the 49ers if Kaepernick went down with an injury.
Wow, well done I really like that minus Vince Young and Snyder being cut. Young don't want any part of and Snyder has played well this year, much better than he ever did in his previous stint with us. Sutton we could get into shape and Tomsula could get the most out of him if Sutton is at all motivated. Big fan of Dennard and Landry. Just started looking into Ward and he looks more like a FS which is fine but I'd probably have him bulk up and get stronger. Get him up to 200 from 191.
Just a minor gripe but I would expect Lattimore to quickly climb the RB depth chart to #2 over Hunter and James although as of now that would be correct. Also, not sure if Bowman will go on PUP we will see but maybe we can afford to rest him for 6 games. Depends on who we play although that probably won't factor into our decision too much.

The reason he hasn't landed anywhere is he's a headcase who's bankrupt, still has poor mechanics, throws more INTs than TDs, his only positive was his running ability. I'd rather develop a 5th round kid like Brett Smith or David Fales type kid. Forget entitled headcase.

That 5th round pick you want to develop isn't as good as Young though. Colt McCoy would be better than a 5th round pick.

I'd be fine with McCoy as our #2 while we develop a late rounder as a backup. This is a pretty good draft to find some depth in. We have plenty of picks to use. Rather use it on a kid with potential than on a retread QB that didn't pan out in Tenn, Philly, Buffalo, or GB.
Young would come in and pronounce this the 'Dream Team' thinking hes actually gonna play like the 2012 Eagles.. no like.

Vince Young! If they 49ers wanted him, they would've signed him last off season and saved the 6th rounder in the trade for Colt McCoy.

Best bet is that bowman will go on PUP. He showed what he could do this year and there is no reason to rush him back onto the field. We dont want him to get injured even worse. We need to let his knee fully recover before he even starts practicing. He will be like this years michael crabtree.
Personally, I still like Aaron Murray going to the 49ers and being placed on the IR/NFI


When redshirt freshman Aaron Murray earned a spot in the Georgia record books with 3,049 passing yards and a sterling 24 TDs against just eight interceptions in his first season as the starter, some chalked up his success to the fact that he had A.J. Green catching many of his passes.

With Green dazzling the NFL as a rookie for the Cincinnati Bengals this past season, however, Murray took on even more of the responsibility for the Bulldogs' offense and he responded with another record-breaking campaign, shattering the school mark for most passing touchdowns (35) and earning the respect of conference coaches (voted Second Team All-SEC).

STRENGTHS: As one might expect given his playing time, Murray does many of the little things well. He has a quick set-up and delivery. He throws a tight spiral and is creative in the pocket, showing the ability to slide and re-set, as well as deliver passes from a variety of arm slots. He throws deep passes with velocity and good trajectory and can attack down the seam with excellent touch, as well. He's starred in a pro-style offense for three seasons against elite competition.

WEAKNESSES: While there are plenty of positives to note when discussing Murray, one obvious concern is his lack of preferred size. The success of Drew Brees (and Russell Wilson last year) proves that shorter quarterbacks can be successful in the NFL, though extraordinary awareness is required to prove the exception to the rule. Murray, frankly, hasn't yet shown this level of savvy. Too often, his passes are batted down at the line of scrimmage - or sneak through only to be dropped by pass-catchers who aren't able to see the ball come out of Murray's hand before it gets to them.

COMPARES TO: Matt Barkley, Quarterback, Philadelphia Eagles - Like Barkley, Murray exhibits good feet and impressive touch from the pocket, but has been an inconsistent decision-maker and will need to show improved awareness in order to be considered an elite prospect at the position.

Nice mock. Not the biggest VY fan, but I can live with it. Love the draft. Dennard is my top CB. So to get him and only give up a 3rd would be awesome, similar to Eric Reid trade.
I'm a fan of the mock overall, but as an ASU alum, I can tell you that I don't think Sutton fits this defense. He is a very very good player, but I don't think he would fit the mold of what our DL is built to do. I see him as someone that would work well in a 4-3 alongside someone like JJ Watt or with the Giants next to Justin Tuck. In our defense, I think he would be engulfed.
My latest mock: I have QB Logan Thomas being converted to a TE, also updated my injury draftees.
