Maybe the Niners are trying to be Like the Braves of the 90's with their pitcher reclamations. Turn duds into studs... I know most of yall are Giants fans and might think of the Braves as the big 3 .. But Mercker, Ashby, Thompson, Mullholland.. Mazzone could take pitchers and get the best out of them... Maybe Harbaugh can do the same with former high draft picks.

I should be embarrassed to say this, but I loved Maybin coming out as a prospect! He hasn't flashed at all in the NFL though. There's no thread of hope to grasp, based solely on his on-field play. But after signing Donte Whitner I remember he said when he got to the 49ers and looked at the weight room, it was a huge upgrade from the one the Bills have at their facility. Maybin was/is a guy rat. He weighed in at 228lbs this season, which is beyond underweight.

Just giving Maybin a look adds to my theory that I and Baalke share the same brain frequency and have been exchanging ideas unbeknownst to him.

Is he eligible for practice squad? I never paid to much attention to the PS rules

Well, they said he is friends with Vernon. He was teammates with Bowmann in College and with Whitner in Buffalo. Maybe he will come here. Can't hurt to try the kid out.

Imac was not interested in forcing a Crabtree pick, but he was on board with taking him if he fell to us @ 10 and Stafford and Sanchez were gone.

This is not true. imac wanted no part of Crabtree at 10; he wanted Jenkins like Clyde. I thought Orakpo was the BPA / BVA at 10.

I wanted Raji and was his biggest fan. Damn you GB! Doesn't help watching him dominate either.

So did I. I wasn't too mad when GB picked him 'cause Orakpo was still on the board (I would've taken Raji over Orakpo), but then McBooseHound kicked me in the junk by taking Crabby...

So we're trying out Maybin at WR? :)

Sick, what I wrote does not implicate Imac's wishes just what he said he would accept if those certain criteria (Stafford, Sanchez) were met, and it is 100% true. I came across the post a few weeks ago while looking for another post.

Like many/most that I can recall from that time, Imac figured Crab would be gone before our pick @ 10.

Ok, sorry. I missed the point you were making. I suppose another way to say it would be he was resigned to the fact that the Niners took him? I know imac was in agreement with me in saying in a best case scenario he'd become a TJ Houshmandzadeh ...

I think it would be an exercize in futility to even try Maybin at OLB unless he'd be a specialty player for certain packages. It appears he's not big enough to play ILB, and he can't play safety. Unless he adds some bulk I don't see any way he can contribute to the defense.

that works too!

49ers camp report (8/16): Competition on O-line

Personnel report: After former Buffalo Bills first-round pick OLB Aaron Maybin cleared waivers, the 49ers were among the teams to inquire about signing him, his agent said. But Maybin decided he was not going to sign with the 49ers, opting to go in "another direction," his agent said. Maybin, the No. 11 overall pick of the 2009 draft, had no sacks for the Bills in two seasons.

Zero sacks in two seasons...I am not upset he wanted to go in another direction.
