my thoughts? well I've seen enough of the mocks on the zone to conclude they all look the same.

im just not high on moncrief this year. he is fast. but its that short burst and then afterburn we need in that order. i can see donte wrestling with a sherman type before busting out and running. I dont think that will work. we are lacking instant agility. we dont have a receiver that can shake from the snap. i personally think cooks should be first receiver on the board for us available. If we got archer later, and moncrief in 2nd. I truly believe archer would get more time. Moncrief is a guy that can replace a crabtree "next year." But we need the new wr to do damage now

I'd rather get Exum in the 4th over Loston, but aside from that excellent mock.

Good job...this mock would be ideal! I saw a typo tho...Kyle Fuller is from VT...Verrett is from TCU

Really like this a lot as it covers needs with very good players.
I know a lot of mocks have us moving up into the low 20's to teens and only giving up the 77 pick. It works out numbers wise but in this years draft, there is gonna be a lot of talent in that range that would normally be in the top 10. If your a team sitting in that area, are you gonna give up a top 10 player for a bottom pick in the 1st and maybe a guy in the 3rd that can help. I would not make that trade if I were a GM for another team. Top 10 talent requires more pain to gain IMO but would love it if some team went for it.

Love it. the only thing I would possibly change would be move Easley to 3b and take Joyner with 2a/b. Not even sure though that Easley or Joyner would be there at those picks,( i guess it would be contingent on where Joyner and Easley are projected to go. I've seen Easley anywhere from 2-4 and Joyner 1-3). My thinking being that you have a guy in Joyner who could man the slot and then be possibly groomed to take relieve Bethea at SS when he is gone. Or if for some reason Culliver does not work out, you would still have a Brock/Fuller/Joyner nucleus. Although you covered a possible SS replacement with Loston, and the Niners have a fair amount of guys currently in the secondary that would be further crowded with the Fuller addition (let alone a Joyner addition as well)….but Joyner just seems like a real playmaker that would be a nice toy to have in the secondary, wherever he plays.

I could not agree more.

Two of the drafts at SI.com have us taking Fuller at #30, the third has us taking Verrett there.

I don't know that Fuller would be taken as high as #21...it's possible, particularly as his draft stock continues to rise. If so, I think he's worth making the trade.
WRT Moncrief, I'd still advocate for Matthews largely because his total body of work at Vandy was superb. He's arguably one of the most NFL-ready WR's in this draft.
The rest looks good to me.

Moncrief and Herron would be a nice duo.

Garbage draft. Thank you this is your final mock and please don't post another garbage mock again.

I would agree with you, but like I stated in my comments, the Niners need to leapfrog the Bengals, Chargers and Saints to guarantee they get the CB they want. Dennard and Gilbert should be gone by the Steelers pick at #16 and it would cost most than a third rounder to get up that high. Therefore, I have them choosing the bigger of the two CB's that are on their radar in Fuller or Verrett. The only other CB who would be avaiable in the #30 slot would be Bradley Roby, and I have my doubts about him.
