2009 NFL Draft: Day 1, Thread 1

Dave_tiny by David Fucillo on in NFL Draft

2009_draft_logo_medium

And away we go.  We've gotten the new jerseys (feel free to continue the discussion in that thread) and now it's time to get some players to fill those jerseys.  The draft kicks off at 1pm pacific/4pm eastern and if you don't have access to a tv, NFL.com will have a live stream of the draft.

We've been discussing this day from pretty much the moment the 2008 season ended.  There was some reasons for disappointment and some reasons for excitement.  Either way, the Draft is a day when every team has a chance to get that next big impact player that will change the face of the franchise.

The 49ers have done some very good things in the draft and some VERY BAD THINGS.  Although I think there is a certain number of players considered above the rest, it's still been a fairly unpredictable mock season.  The 49ers could be looking at anyone from Michael Oher and Brian Orakpo to Mark Sanchez and Aaron Maybin.  Maybe Michael Crabtree, B.J. Raji or Andre Smith fall to them at 10, or maybe they just deal that pick.  In the end, it's pretty hard to figure anything out.  However, I think those cover all the likely options.

We've got several scouting reports for you to check out if you're looking for info on a certain player.  Additionally, heading on over to Mocking the Draft for some truly extensive NFL Draft coverage.  They've done a large number of quick hitting scouting reports on an assortment of players.  More importantly, SB Nation got a pair of press passes for The Sports Guru and JasonB so we'll hopefully we'll get some 49ers-specific insight from them.

Depending on how quickly this thread fills up, we'll be back with a new thread when the 49ers make their selection.  In the meantime, after the jump we've got a compilation of first round mocks from the various writers/moderators here at Niners Nation, as well as one for Dumb Luck and Bonzo the Idiot Monkey's picks.

Finally, if you feel you might get depressed rather quickly during the draft, feel free to take part in the Mel Kiper drinking game (courtesy of MinerNiner).  It's a sure-fire way to drown your sorrows.

FOOCH'S NOTE 1:25PM: If you're swinging by the site for the first time, feel free to register and join in the discussion.  It's free and it's easy.  It's gonna be a crazy day for everyone today.

All DHB can do is run. He doesn’t return kicks, he doesn’t run routes and he doesn’t make tacklers miss. Maclin is fast and can do those other things. I watch a lot of ACC and Big 12 football and Maclin is definitely a more impressive player.

run routes?

Have you seen Missouri football? Coffman is the only player on that team who runs routes.

Maclin is not going to have success across the middle in the NFL and he’s not a polished route runner.

Heyward-Bey runs some pretty good routes and played in a somewhat pro-style offense. His QB was garbage as well.

by youALREADYknow on Apr 25, 2009 2:04 PM PDT up reply actions  

I don’t dispute the QB issue at Maryland and it wouldn’t surprise me if Maclin isn’t as good route runner as I remember. However, DHB just isn’t a good all-around WR. He is not a good route runner. Or at least he wasn’t at Maryland. I just can’t remember many times where he was open on a route other than a go.

It makes no sense. I mean, it makes perfect sense (ie, Al Davis is dumb). But the guy isn’t a good route runner and he disappeared for long streches of games. Also, he doesn’t return kicks or punts and who knows how he’ll react to running routes over the middle.

That would be crazy if they go undrafted

I’m all about getting Harrell at the back of the draft. Wouldn’t have to start any time soon, could develop properly, I think he would be a really good future QB.

Browns

Cleveland is taking some pretty low-ball offers so far to move back. A 6th rounder?

We getting a Day 1, Thread 2?

In any case, the further Everette Brown drops the more intrigued I get. He would be one of the few players who might be worth trading up for. He was a legit target at #10 and has the best pass rush moves in the draft to me.

Did the Browns just trade back for the 3rd time?

Unless they are moving into the 2nd-3rd rounds, they’re wasting time.

Maclin, Oher and E. Brown are still on the board. Beanie Wells and USC MLB

by bignerd on Apr 25, 2009 3:10 PM PDT reply actions  

Maclin to Philly

He fits well in that offense, a lot like Jackson. Good pick and Maclin’s career just got a huge boost.

Harvin would have been better though IMO

He could have played backup HB as well and filled two needs.

Maclin is more explosive in the screen game. Andy Reid just got another explosive West Coast weapon.

Maclin, Jackson and Westbrook is impossible to contain for a defense.

by bignerd on Apr 25, 2009 3:18 PM PDT up reply actions  

yep

It’s going to be hard to contain all of those weapons in the short to intermediate game.

If you can send Jackson deep and keep Maclin on the short routes with Westbrook out of the backfield, then it’s game over for defenses. You can’t blitz against that kind of speed when Westbrook is the checkdown.

The game plan against the Eagles is always to keep Westbrook from killing you. It really looks impossible to do that now.

and...

Imagine if they somehow got Boldin. Ridiculous.

don’t need him now. AZ is going to have to keep him.

Detroit

Have to protect Stafford. Either RB in Wells or OT in Oher.

by bignerd on Apr 25, 2009 3:16 PM PDT reply actions  

strange

The Lions = epic fail

He might be close to BPA, but this team is going to finish dead last in defense again. Did they check their defensive ratings at all?

Correct . . . epic fail

Cleveland

Beanie Wells would be a good pick.

by bignerd on Apr 25, 2009 3:22 PM PDT reply actions  

interesting draft for Wells

If he doesn’t go to Cleveland, then I don’t see another team in the 1st round taking him. Maybe a trade up from someone, but no other team needs a RB who isn’t a receiving threat.

You were right about Wells

Shit, he might be in AZ. Great, the rich will get richer.

by bignerd on Apr 25, 2009 4:01 PM PDT up reply actions  

Wow

With Everette Brown on the board, they go center…. Brown’s stock appears to have fallen off the map. I doubt the Patriots pass on that ability.

I don’t see a logical trade partner to get there

by bignerd on Apr 25, 2009 3:33 PM PDT up reply actions  

Patriots are interesting here

I think this is going to be the last 3-4 LB off the board until round 2. That means two of Everette Brown, Clay Matthews, and Connor Barwin are probably going to be dropping to round 2.

by youALREADYknow on Apr 25, 2009 3:33 PM PDT reply actions

Something tells me Everette Brown. He’s their kind of player and Suggs has to be re-upped or franchised next year.

Looking good for the 2nd round

Three 1st round 3-4 OLB’s remaining and only 1 CB taken in the first round. The 49ers should be able to pick up a 1st/2nd round talent at either position.

good

Dolphins took Davis. Moves some better coverage CB’s down to the 49ers.

by youALREADYknow on Apr 25, 2009 3:47 PM PDT reply actions  

I dunno. You can get better at coverage, you can’t find a guy with Vontae’s speed, size and power. It’s not like Vontae doesn’t have great coverage skills he just brain farts too often.

by bignerd on Apr 25, 2009 3:51 PM PDT up reply actions  

it's more than just that

His tackling technique is horrible.

Sean Smith have the speed and size, Darius Butler has the speed and coverage skills… I’d rather have those two.

They need to fill out their 3-4 scheme. Hope it’s not Brown.

NE has around 15-16 picks now

That doesn’t make sense. 50% of those guys won’t make the team

by bignerd on Apr 25, 2009 3:57 PM PDT up reply actions  

Based on NE's usual tendencies

I’m sure they’ve noticed the abundance of talent from 30-80 and will trade up to get multiple picks in that area. If so, they’ll probably have the best draft by default.

Warning

Beanie Wells is sitting right there for AZ. If they can get a RB there isn’t a hole in that offense.

by bignerd on Apr 25, 2009 4:05 PM PDT reply actions  

Wells

Think they take him knowing he’s not going to be a threat in the passing game?

I’m sure they were pissed when Donald Brown was taken. Maybe they go for LeSean McCoy… dunno.

by youALREADYknow on Apr 25, 2009 4:07 PM PDT up reply actions  

Bills not taking OT

Interesting. Seems like a lot of OT talent will be available in the 2nd round.

I’d still much rather have OLB/NT/CB addressed, but if you can get a 1st round tackle in the 2nd then it’s not too bad.
