Mock draft: SN projects 2010's top NFL picks

So I know its way to early to talk about this but I saw it come up and disagree with it way to much. We all know that the 9ers will pick a QB they have to Smith just sucks and Hill is worse then him. This is where SN is putting the 9ers at with the Carolina pick, where they put Oakland.
6. San Francisco 49ers: Sam Bradford*, QB, Oklahoma (Pick acquired from Carolina) The 49ers whiffed on QB Alex Smith in '05 but take another chance on a QB with high pick, gambling that Bradford can be a durable NFL passer. 9: Oakland Raiders: Tim Tebow, QB, Florida Raiders owner/GM Al Davis finally admits his failure with JaMarcus Russell(notes) and again goes for the biggest name player on the board. Dose anybody belive that the 9ers would pick Bradford over Tebow????This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of Niners Nation's writers or editors. It does reflect the views of this particular fan though, which is as important as the views of Niners Nation's writers or editors.

Bradford over Tebow? Heck ya
Bradford is #1 on Mel Kiper’s big board and Tebow isn’t even on it. On Scouts Inc top 100 Bradford is 4 and Tebow is 61. Just using these as an example, most don’t think that Tebow’s play will work in the NFL at least not as a QB. Didn’t someone say to Tebow something like “Congratulations, enjoy this and be ready to be picked in the 4th round of the NFL Draft as a fullback.” or something like that?

Dolphins
might take Tebow, to have as many different options/looks for their ever evolving Wildcat perhaps?

Didn't they get Pat White for that?
I think they wouldn’t do that. I think (emphasis on the think) that the only one that might take a flyer on Tebow would be the Jags just to get the home crowd in the stadium.

The Dolphins
I don’t even think will select a QB in next years draft. Henne, Pennington, and White will be plenty. I am beggining to have doubts that Tebow will even be drafted 1st round with all the choices available in the 2010 Draft

Hells yeah
Tebow is Shaun Hill in Roethlisberger’s body minus a couple of inches. He throws so many wounded ducks it’s ridiculous. He cannot play the way he does in the NFL or he will have the concussion syndrome and be out by the time he’s 27, that’s his best attribute, running ability. He barely throws for 200 since harvin left.

The question is, which ones run pro type offense under center and how is their accuracy and timing.
Also, when do you or others think these QBs would be drafted, I doubt they would all be in the first round.

Right now Scouts Inc has 5 QBs listed in the top 32 prospects: Bradford(4th), Locker(6th), McCoy(19th), Clausen(25th), and Snead(30th).

What teams do you see as in that high a need for a QB?
Rams? Ok yeah quite possibly. Cleveland? Yeah I’ll give you that as a possibility. Not the Raiduhs, Al’s too stubborn to admit his mistake as far as Russell yet.

At least 4 teams have high need for a QB
Rams, Browns, Minnesota (they felt they needed a new QB so badly that they brought in a 40 year old Favre), and the Seahawks (Hasselbeck is 34 and has struggled with injuries). Plus, their are several other teams that have QB’s that have yet to prove they have what it takes: Titans, Raiders, Cardinals, Bills, and of course the 49ers. I could easily see at least one or even two of these teams drafting a QB in the 1st round.

The Browns, Rams, Bills, LOLSKINS, perhaps Raiders.
In addition, you have some darkhorse teams ready to trade up high into the first to get a franchise QB to develop like the Cowboys, Panthers, Patriots, Seahawks, and a couple of others teams.

Hasselbeck is 34
He’s had a lot of injuries lately. Now is the perfect time for the Seahawks to draft a QB for the future. Hasselbeck or Wallace can still play for maybe a year or two, which would allow the new draft pick to learn the system. Then in 2011/12, he’ld be ready to take over. Why wouldn’t they choose a QB in the first round if they felt he could be the one to take over at such a key position?

Causen and Bradford
are probably the best two choices in next years draft. They both come from pro-style offenses. McCoy does also but I’m not totally sold on him. The OU vs. Texas game this weekend should tell us alot about them both. It will be their 3rd time meeting and they are 1-1 against each other

Oklahoma doesn’t run a pro style offense…and neither does Texas.
Neither is as bad as say, Texas Tech…
If you want to see a true pro-style offense watch USC or Georgia.
That said, Clausen does play in a Pro style offense….

do run pro set formations a majority of the time.

(Oklahoma in the first 2:00 4 out of 5 plays in a pro-style formation) Didn’t watch past that, but pretty sure it goes along those same lines for the next 8:00 or so
You’re right about Texas…I am not sure why I put that McCoy did also…I think I was thinking something else

They occasionally go pro-style when they are running the football or doing some other stuff
But once they want to start putting up points they go straight to the shotgun with 4-5 WRs.
They’ll run a few snaps under center, but not as many as USC or Georgia.

:( Just read Pike's info on ESPN
He gets a 3 (average) for Accuracy and 4 (below average) for arm strength. And when they talk about mental they say he’s inconsistent and has a hard time reading good defenses.I"m kinda like the Tim Hiller kid from Western Michigan 1 on arm strength and 2 (above average) on accuracy. Mentally they say he’s a tough SOB and “Strong football intelligence and sound decision maker.” and that he “takes what the defense gives him”

i wouldn't be shocked
a bit surprised maybe but not totally caught off by the pick but if the pick is that high I think the 49ers go DL,OL or Safety and my guts says Safety first and then with our pick they will go with the best available OL. I think this organization is going to do things the right way. the 9ers have been drafting off of best available and not need the last few years. And now that our major needs are glaring I don’t see them ignoring the needs anymore.

There are two high ranking OTs in the draft that will go high. I think the 49ers will pick one of them with the 1st pick
It doesn’t matter if the OT is only going to play RT… we need the best…

When you have the big problem the 49ers do on the OL, you do draft them that high.
They were going to take Oher at number 10 this last draft.
On the other hand if there are some good OTs / OGs in FA that are still young… I can see the Niners going for top quality experience this offseason.

OGs in FA are looking to be
Colledge (GB), Mankin (NE) at least and some other good ones too probably. I am really wondering if Davin Joseph is going to be at the end of his contract but haven’t found a good place to check who’s contracts will be up at the end of this year yet.
Also I"m drooling a bit over Roman Harper in FA and then we can have the Safety thing at least stop gapped and be able to concentrate on other things.

I would be too
I mean look at the list that has built up just on this post alone there are 7 already there listed that are possibly good prospects (including Tebow in that) those all aren’t going in the 1st round. There will be ones available in the lower rounds second or third. And not the guys that got all the hype like I feel some of these have. I stand by my plan (that I bet some are sick of hearing) OT and NT (or S/CB) with the first two picks and then second MAYBE a QB and then 3rd an OG probably and get some OG help in FA (I’d also like to see some Safety help in FA if possible)

I think they may take one in a later round like they did with Nate Davis.
The problem is that it isn’t so much the QB but the OL that is the problem. correct the OL problems and the QB gets a lot better. That is when you look at bringing in a new QB.
Because the OL sucked before is one of the reasons Smith didn’t excel. That and different OCs each year.

Right, so why take ANOTHER late round QB like Davis?
Is there any benefit to having multiple guys like him on the team? I’d say no, at least until the rest of the offense is up to par. Notably, the LOLffensive line.

I don't think...
… there’s anything wrong with taking a QB before making sure your OL is in place. QB’s have a significantly steeper learning curve, so it could be good to get them in place earlier, working on that. What COULD be wrong with taking a QB high before establishing an OL is when teams throw that QB into the fire as a rookie. Not only is he learning the game, he’s fending for his life.
Smith’s failures have many causes, but one of them is not just simply because he didn’t have an offensive line. It was that he was forced to try to make lemonade out of lemons before he even got a chance to read the recipe.

We could do a complete front page post on why Smith did not succeed.
1. OL problems
2. OC changes
3. too many sacks early on
4. bad receiving core
5. Mike Nolan (Just kidding.. or am I ?)

Lot of QB's
To me there are going to be a lot of quality QB’s coming up in 2010, and i think for the first time in a long time there aren’t a lot of teams looking for QB’s. If you look at the teams the only QB starved teams that come to mind are the 49ers, Oakland, Cleveland, Carolina, Washington, and St. Louis. With a few teams having aging QB’s. So there are more then enough 1st round talent QB’s coming up then there are teams needing their services. So with the two 1st rounders the Niners have they should draft an O-Lineman and a Safety. Then in the 2nd round there could possible be a 1st round talent QB still available. I’d prefer Clausen over any of the others, but he will be the 2nd QB taken after Bradford i think.
by Hoopers Judge on Oct 14, 2009 5:57 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I am not to high on Bradford but I do like Clausen. Locker is another guy that I like along with Pike. Bradford, Clausen, and Locker will most likely be gone by the 2nd round but Pike might be a guy that falls to us. The only problem is that it looks like we will have a late 2nd rounder and I doubt any of those guys fall that far.

There are a few more teams that need a QB
Minnesota can’t rely on Favre forever. Seahawks have a 34 year old Hasselbeck that has stuggled a lot recently with injuries. Titan’s are starting Collins because they’re not sold on Vince Young. And the Bills don’t seem that sold on Trent Edwards being the future of the franchise. Any one of those teams might go for a QB in the first round in addition to the 6 teams you mentioned.

Ok then.. how about the 49ers trading Alex Smith to the Lions for their 1st round pick in 2010.
I know.. this is silly.. but actually I think they could get a good 2nd rounder for Alex and then trade down from their highest 1st round pick to have 3 in the 1st…. and 2 in the 2nd… that is, of course if Carolina quits winning.
Not sure where Mays will fall but it is a thought…. also as long as they get OL help in free agency.

Only problem is: no one needs an underachieving backup quarterback that hasn’t seen real playtime since a devastating injury to his throwing arm.
Even still, no amount of desperation would ever lead a team to giving up a 2nd (or 3rd) rounder for Alex Smith at this point in his career.

If I'm not mistaken, this is the last year on Franklin's current deal.
And while he’s certainly not going to get more than a few teams calling for him, I could easily see the 49ers not matching an offer that another, more desperate, team might present (think Marques Douglas a couple years ago). Since no one on the current roster is really fit to take over as a full time nose (I think Soap is a much better fit at RDE), it wouldn’t be out of the question to take a rookie for that spot early on.
I’m not sure if Chesapeake meant it this way, but the fact that Franklin has played so well for us recently may be why we end up needing a NT right away going into 2010.

Speaking of receivers a guy that I like that will be in the second or third round is Eric Decker from Minnesota. He is not the fastest guy but he is tough and has great hands and body control. The only thing keeping him from being one of the top receivers is his speed. He is a 4 year starter and is breaking a couple records at Minnesota right now.

It would be nice to pick him up in the later rounds if available, though i think for the Niners running game another bruiser wouldn’t be prudent, we need a small, fast, agile back to complement Frank and Glen and for “change of pace” purposes.

I agree with drafting a NT/OL and a like the kid Ndamukong Suh NT from Nebraska. The 6-4 300lb SR beast of a player has played big this year and is a game changer. I mean the guy just makes plays all over the field as a NT? I feel the same about about Berry from Tennesse; he just has a nack for being around the ball and creating havoc. As for addressing another RB or QB in the draft; I think the Niners should entertain the idea in the later rounds. I don’t consider Gerhart a change of pace back as well; as he is bigger than Gore or Coffee and possibly slower. And Javid Best will be another Reggie Bush. I would rather take my chances with a Noel Devine from W Virginia or a Jaquezz Rodgers from Oregon State. I really like the Jr out of Fresno State Ryan Matthews; who leads the nation in rushing per game but I don’t see him coming out early. As far as a later round QB; the sleeper in the draft could be Dan Lefevour out of Central Michigan. I think he has all the tools to be a good pro QB; size and athletic ability and has posted good numbers in his 4 years for a sub par program.

I’d laugh my butt off if Bradford decided to return for his senior year

Taylor Mays
Reminds me of another safety from USC who had a nice career in SF.

Instead of Berry vs Mays
Cause I know this won’t come to a resolution . . . why not find the best pass rushing OLB prospect coming out of college.

What we've got here is a failure to communicate.

If we do go w/a QB in the draft i say we p/u Colt McCoy because he’s mobile and he can also pass

Who cares if he's mobile?
He can pass?
OMG

I say we draft
Mays or berry and if Mccoy or Bradford are available then one of them guys if none of these players are available then we should just draft the best Ol or the best pass rusher. Im sure one of these guys will be available with carolinas pick which im guessing will be a 8 thru 15 pick.

McCoy....
Geez this guy doesn’t even have 1st round talent.
Way too overhyped.
I like how walterfootball.com has him going in the 3rd round.
That fits his talent level…..
Unless of course you meant Gerald McCoy, who is a beast (can’t play for us though, he’s a 4-3 guy)
What we've got here is a failure to communicate.
