2009 NFL Draft Day 1, Open Thread 3
Things are filling up rather quickly in our other threads, so I thought I'd roll this thread out to speed up the site and discussion. Feel free to use this thread for discussion of Michael Crabtree or any other aspect of the 2009 NFL Draft. We'll keep this thread rolling until the 49ers make their second pick of the draft.
Personally I'd love to see the 49ers grab a guy like Ron Brace with their second round pick. Why not lock up the nose tackle position for the foreseeable future? Aubrayo Franklin has been solid but he's a free agent after this season and I don't see Isaac Sopoaga as the long-term answer at NT. Of course, maybe they go outside linebacker or offensive lineman. What do you guys think?
Make sure and also keep an eye on Mocking the Draft for complete draft coverage.

i've got to think
he’ll be gone by our pick, but maybe we’ll trade up to nab him?
I don't think it's worth a trade up
Brown is kind of a pipe dream but I do like that the Tackles are dropping as well. I would be fine with Britton, Beatty, or Loadholt in the 2nd.
I’d love to get one of those tackles. I also have a sneaky feeling that the Titans pick Brown.

Not nearly the same kind of value. Good talent, though, and I would not mind.

Depends on who you ask
I think he’s a first round talent, but he’s not a consensus 1st rounder like the guys above.

Poor Rey
He was the top dog of USC’s defense last year and yet Cushing and Matthews have gone before him. He should have came out last year and shouldn’t grind Erin Andrews after the Rose Bowl.
On second thought, grinding Erin was worth being a late late 1st rounder or 2nd rounder.

I’m loving the run on WR’s since we already have Crabtree. A lot of gems are dropping to the 2nd round. We might get an even better value at #43 than we did at #10 with Crabtree.

Como?
Their bigger problem is that their top two backs have injury issues. If healthy, they have a great one-two punch. I’d look for them to pick up a big back later (since I’m betting Wells goes to AZ).

Based on needs
Lions need a tackle, so Britton or Beatty might go there
Patriots should be taking a 3-4 LB (probably laughing at the possibility of Everette Brown)
Browns are converting to 3-4, so need OLB’s (Barwin is a possibility and a Pioli kind of guy)
Packers already got Raji, so won’t be stealing Brace at NT… still need a 3-4 OLB or DE (maybe Jarron Gilbert or Connor Barwin)
Bills need a tackle bad (Britton, Beatty, or Loadholt)
It’s looking like we’ll have one of the OLB’s on the board (Brown, Barwin, or Johnson), one of the OT’s (Britton, Beatty, or Loadholt), and a couple of CB’s (S.Smith, Butler, A.Smith)

everette brown, maualuga or britton

need a little more than that
but im almost there
is he the only NT available?
No. Brace has serious injury problems (a 300+ lb young man who already has back problems) and there are similar players from small schools available in the 4th-5th rounds.
I like Brace though and would love to see him drafted. He’s just not a no-brainer here.

It's happened before
The colts traded their 2008 1st rounder to SF in 2007 for the 49ers 2007 2nd rounder and took Tony Ugoh.
This is amazing
5 picks remaining and every player who the 49ers need from the 1st round is still on the board. Unless they all go in order here, the 49ers should be getting a 1st round talent.
Now is not the time for another Chilo Rachal pick. There’s talent here!

if 49ers land Eben Britton or Everette Brown just wow. I think they would have the best draft.
seriously
I’m in favor of drafting and then trading back into the second if both those guys are still on the board. If we got both and just kept a couple later picks to grab a QB and RB late I’d be thrilled with this draft.
Thing A
Trade next year's 2nd?
I doubt next year’s draft has this kind of talent in the 2nd round. I’d be all for trading next year’s 2nd and this year’s 4th/5th to get two picks in this year’s 2nd round.

Defense or offense here in round 2?
I think you have to address some of the defensive issues here in the 2nd round given the talent that has dropped here.
Britton or Beatty may be good values at #43, but I’d be pretty disappointed with those picks if some other guys are on the board.

I'm honestly not sure...
He’s never specifically said why that I can recall. What he says today:
Don’t know the particulars on why Brown has lasted through 39 picks, but I’ve heard rumblings that a lot of teams have placed third-round grades on him. I think that’s where the 49ers might have him, too. Of course, there has to be a team that has him in the second round.

Next year’s draft is better from 1-10, but not as deep as this one IMO in the positions we need.

Well, right. I never said Super Bowl. But that’s something that’s worth it, to me, long term because your team learns how to be a winning team.
Joe Martinez: My fingers are crossed and my palms are together for you.
When it's all said and done, America will be remembered for three things: The Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
I think...
… players can “learn to be a winning team” without making playoffs but, you know, just winning? A second and a fourth probably wouldn’t have made much of an impact on the roster, anyway. Outside of Rachal and Morgan, have there been many recent 49ers second and fourth round picks that have made contributions in their first year?
meh

I apologize for being harsh. And yes, I do think it’s that much of a stretch. Spikes is a much different player than he was when made the Pro Bowl. Injuries have really sapped his athleticism. He’s a very good Ted, but not a dominant player anymore. Lewis is really one-dimensional and I think everyone knows it. He can tackle and that’s it. Pro Bowl safeties get picks. Michael Lewis does not.
Joe Martinez: My fingers are crossed and my palms are together for you.
When it's all said and done, America will be remembered for three things: The Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
OK I'll give you that
they’re borderline at best. However, IMO if they played for the Cowboys they’d be Pro Bowlers.
In any case they’re above average at their positions. I’m not worried about either of the corners, the SS or either of the ILBs. I think 2/3 of the DL is good if not necessarily great. I think Smith has the potential to be a pro bowler, don’t know how I forgot about him. The OLBs are again at least average with flashes of above average. The only really glaraing hole is NT.

You always have to be one step ahead of your drunk friends
--Daisy Owl
I do think the defense is pretty decent with the core of Willis, J Smith and Clements. However, I still don’t like our second DE (Balmer/whoever) or OLB (Lawson has not been a good pass-rusher) or our FS or our NT. Couple that with the lack of quality depth on defense (who are the back-up LBs and safeties?) and I can see this D really struggling with injuries. I don’t expect the offense to score a ton of points, so that could be really troubling.
Joe Martinez: My fingers are crossed and my palms are together for you.
When it's all said and done, America will be remembered for three things: The Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
Let’s see (off the top of my head): OT, OG, back-up RB, OLB, FS, NT. That’s a lot of holes.
Joe Martinez: My fingers are crossed and my palms are together for you.
When it's all said and done, America will be remembered for three things: The Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
I'll give you OLB and FS and NT
even though I think Haralson and Goldson are promising, they’re definitely not established players. OT is much more of a long term hole, I think we’ll be fine this year if whoever it was we signed stays healthy. Would I LIKE more OT depth? yeah, but it’s not gonna kill us I don’t think. OG a hole? You’re reaching. Rachal Baas and Snyder should be all we need there. We really need a NT, but who was available at that pick?
Sharlon Schoop - de favoriete Nederlandse honkbalspeler van McCovey Chronicles.
You always have to be one step ahead of your drunk friends
--Daisy Owl
We didn’t give up one player. We gave up two. That’s why I don’t like it. It makes it that much harder to address a position like NT, where players get over-drafted due to positional scarcity. I don’t expect Smith to be healthy the whole year, so a quality back-up is key. OG I think is a need because I have suspicion that Snyder isn’t as good as we think he is and that Baas won’t be back after this season.
Joe Martinez: My fingers are crossed and my palms are together for you.
When it's all said and done, America will be remembered for three things: The Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
+1
Like it or not the team is still rebuilding. I would have liked Brown or Barwin there but the extra pick gives the Niners a lot of flexibility in next year’s draft. The Lions and Chiefs will likely suck and again and probably won’t be looking for a QB which makes them likely trading partners.

49ers are Geniouses!
If something goes haywire this year no matter what, 49ers will be able to draft a QB next year.
Plus
If Prince Alex comes back to claim his throne for us, those tow first round picks are gravy. Sweet, sweet gravy. This is how you build new legacies.
49er 'til I die! (if they don't kill me first)
beg to differ
Most legacies are built in rounds 2-5 by smart organizations (like the Patriots).
The 49ers have had 2 first round picks in a few past drafts this decade and walked away with mediocrity.

Depends
If you pick (and manage) like Al Davis, all the 1st round picks in the universe wouldn’t help you. All I’m saying is, we have fewer holes than big question marks. If some of those tossups end up falling in the plus column, we’ve suddenly gotten ourselves in a great position to make moves in next year’s draft (like the Patriots). Why do they not need their 1st round picks? They have addressed gaping holes and have the bargaining room.
