Around SBN: 2012 Africa Cup Of Nations Final

Golden Nuggets: It's here.

Morning folks. Today is the day. I'm so nervous as to what's going to happen with the 49ers. Will they make a trade? Will they draft smart? Does Trent Baalke know what he's doing? Will it be immediately evident that he should stay through next season or will it be immediate that he should be gone? There's many questions and I honestly can see all of them being answered when pick 13 rolls around. This team needs this draft to be good. If it is, they take the division and all is well. So let's cross our fingers, knock on wood, kill a rabbit or whatever it is that you're supposed to do. I've got to head to bed early so I can get up and head to the draft party early. Should be a great time. GO NINERS!

 

I really would hate to see Manny Lawson traded. I just think his potential hasn't been tapped yet, and I don't see anyone playing as well as he did for us last season who is currently on the roster. When Willis couldn't make a tackle, Lawson had the speed and angle to do so. Lawson could cover a tight end and a slot receiver very well. Lawson led the team in sacks. I'd just hate to see him go. The defense would lose an awful lot of speed on defense. (ESPN.com)

Lot's of good nugg's today James...

It’s like an Easter Egg hunt… going to have to sift through carefully. I can’t sleep though… and I will probably pull a 24 hour shift on staying awake, so I have time. It’s too late to go to sleep now. Draft stuff starts in 3 hours.

Lawson

I don’t know how I would feel about the possibilty of a trade. I’m partial to the idea I guess. I’d like to see him stay, but if he left and just leveled out the way he has been playing, I suppose I wouldn’t lose sleep over it.

by Drew Kerr on Apr 22, 2010 3:34 AM PDT reply actions  

I think he has not played at the level we expected when we drafted him in the 1st round… I would not mind a draft day trade for some extra picks in the 2nd or 3rd round.

Joe and Steve were under the same system for years... don't expect Smith to be super so soon.

I'm just seriously scared of that loss of speed.

And then God created Saturn.. And he liked it, so he put a ring on it.

I'm staring

at all the presents under the tree right now. Mom and Dad don’t wake up for another 10 hours, so I can’t rip through the wrapping paper and open anything yet.

That’s how I feel right now.

Sounds like a pretty sweet list....

If they could get two of those, I would take off work tomorrow because I would be partying ALL night long lol

About to get in the car and drive up to San Francisco

…Considered for a split second of putting on my signed Willis jersey just for kicks, but I didn’t. I am pumped. Let’s have ourselves a good day, folks. This is the day the 49ers secure their place at number one in the division.

Draft

I don’t have as much time to spend on here during baseball season…but I took off work, no game and canceled practice for Draft Day baby!! I’m running around like a little kid, drinking beer too early and will surely fall asleep once before it starts. Either way, go 49ers!

Does time seem to be moving slow for anyone else?

I am sitting here at work with nothing to do, and all I can think about is the draft. I keep checking on NN for new things every 5 minutes just to pass the time lol.

This is exactly how I feel.

Handsomeness is a burden my face has to live with. Every day.

If no one is available we like in the 2nd

I’d love to trade it for a 1st rounder in 2011. How nice is it to have 2 first round picks this year!

by 49er4life on Apr 22, 2010 8:45 AM PDT reply actions  

I just killed a rabit.

Actually, a whole family of them for extra luck. So we are good to go.
