2011 NFL Draft: 49ers Trade Into Fifth Round, Select Guard Daniel Kilgore

The San Francisco 49ers made a move with some of their excess draft picks and climbed back into the end of the fifth round of the 2011 NFL Draft. In making the trade, the 49ers selected guard Daniel Kilgore out of Appalachian State. The 49ers have Mike Iupati and Chilo Rachal/Adam Snyder at their guard positions, but could certainly use some more help on one side versus the other.

The 49ers gave up a sixth (174th) and seventh (231st) pick to make the move up to select Kilgore. NFL Draft Scout had this to say about his 2010 season:

2010: Kilgore anchored an offensive front that surrendered only eight sacks in 13 games and helped lead the Mountaineers to top-10 national rankings in scoring (seventh - 34.3 ppg), rushing (eighth - 217.4 ypg) and total offense (10th - 430.9 ypg)    

Star-divide

Here is the Scouts Inc look at his ability in pass protection:

Powerful punch and can knock edge rushers off balance. Can absorb and reset working against bull rushers but vulnerable to push pull moves. Doesn't sink hips enough and leans into defenders. Flashes the ability to slide with defensive end once locked on but lacks ideal lateral mobility. Not fluid enough to recover when gets caught oversetting to the outside. Can lose balance when defender spins inside. Inconsistent cut blocker that gets caught diving at defender's feet.    

Here is there look at his abilty in the running game:

Quick enough to establish position and wall off assignment. Appears to have strong lower body and flashes the ability to drive defenders off the ball but inconsistent in this area and the reason is his technique. Plays too high and feet can go dead on contact. Can get caught leaning and either slide off block or hold. Engulfs linebackers and can put them on their backs but can also duck head at last second and whiff. Marginal range and not a great lead blocker.

not so much

It hurts, but all it takes is a strong late summer run. If this injury happened after Memorial Day I’d say it’s a bigger deal. Not a good injury obviously, but could be worse

Well I know you are an A’s fan but as a Giants fan, without Pablo, without Torres, and Huff looking like he is washed up our offense looks worse than 2009 at this point.

by BustaTheRippa on Apr 30, 2011 12:34 PM PDT up reply actions  

He’s definitely young enough, I like how good he was, but Kilgore does have a ton of potential. Baas can be above-average at center, Kilgore can be better than that. Baas also could command a bit more money than we’d be willing to pay. It might be smarter to go with Heitmann (who does have the injury, but has recovered from worse in the past) for a season, who is under contract. Heitmann is one of the better centers in the league and best player on the line when healthy.

how much time do you think NFL.com experts spend on the late round guys?

now consider that with the fact that NFL TEAMS and their scouts spend countless hours looking at film for these late prospects. I would venture a guess that if I have to lay money down on who would make a more sound selection with a 5th round pick, I would select the scouts from a team, not the network.

I like seeing the late round OL selection

In days of yore, when the Niners were good and ran the WCO, that was a big advantage for us— that we could turn late round OL picks into starters. Heitmann was the last in that line, hopefully Kilgore restarts the trend.

Frank Gore

is 5’9" and 217 pounds.

But his combine weigh in according to this was 208 and he ran a 4.58 40 at his pro day and a 4.65 at the combine.

Kendall Hunter is 5’7" and 200.

Gore’s build is about 3.01 pounds per inch, Hunter’s is 2.98.

I don’t think we drafted a COP back, I think we drafted Gores future replacement.

Calling a guy a COP back just because he is short is a bit shortsighted.

How is his burst compared to Gore?

Gore has always had a special acceleration factor.

That's what I want to know.

But I can’t find 10 yard splits from 2005. On tape it looks good, but it’s hard to compare.

But in my mind, we just got a faster, younger Gore near the end of the high productivity period in Gore’s career.

I like him as a feature back.

by Ougadas on Apr 30, 2011 12:54 PM PDT up reply actions  

Worst and best

Worst case scenario we got a good or ok RB with some outside capability and familiarity at catching passes from the backfield.
Best case scenario, takes the place of Gore with Gore and Dixon making a minimal Thunder and lightning team.
Probable…has some good plays next year and then he and Dixon switch hit a bit when Gore is inevitably hurt for a few games.

by ChesapeakeBay9er on Apr 30, 2011 1:04 PM PDT up reply actions  

I actually saw a lot of similarities between the two.

Similar burst in and out of cuts. Both look very good at keeping balance. Hunter looks like he can learn a lot from Frank. Gore does seem to be a little better between the hashes though.

I think Culliver and A. Smith are probably both in on passing downs, and then gradually they try and work them into more and more starting roles. It’s complicated this year because the lockout could really hamper the rookies development.

I think he under-producer. The guy has talent, coming in everyone thought he was going to be the next superstar WR from USC

But it never panned out. People think he is a bit undersized at barely 6 foot 180-185 but I like his size. This year saw him & Barkley get on the same page. He had a couple of good games. One being against Stanford, So Harbaugh knows what kind of receiver he is and Johnny Morton was his coach at USC. So there is a built in relationship. He’ll be a reliable target for Alex Smith or Colin Kaeapernick

Under producing is his theme

He got outproduced by a Freshman with Barkley throwing them the ball.

Gimme 1 round!

was that Freshman the Woods kid?

He’s gonna be a stud, so understandable.

Harbaugh can turn any QB into a great one. He's a QB guru, even if he's only been a head coach at the college ranks.

Yah Woods

I didn’t catch much of SC this year so I didn’t know him by name but from what I saw you speak the truth here.

I guess I can also let some of Johnson’s so-so production be blamed on the fact that no talent wanted to go to SC since Carroll ran for the hills

Gimme 1 round!

by ItBurnzWhenIP on Apr 30, 2011 1:19 PM PDT up reply actions  

he was not supposed to be the superstar coming in...

he was one of the less heralded recruits. while most of the “stars” flamed out, he was pretty consistent.

Good return man
He needs time to develop since he is a raw route runner that struggles to maintain control out of his breaks, but he should be able to contribute immediately as a return man.

Just what we need. Another return man.

Harbaugh clearly has some sort of crazy lateral scheme on KRs that will result in a touchdown all the time that requires a bunch of good returners

by tarlinian on Apr 30, 2011 1:15 PM PDT up reply actions  

Interesting, according to NFP

He basically has all the measurables, good hands, speed, and agility, but has been injured too often to polish his route running and accelerate out of his breaks.

by tarlinian on Apr 30, 2011 1:15 PM PDT reply actions  

Good Pick.

He’s got some great hands. Youtube the 2008 USC-VIrginia game. He’s already the second fastest WR behind Ginn, though his routes are a little more crisp and of course, good hands.
