Just what the 49ers need more players with character issues.

Louis Nix?

My favourite prospect in the draft. For some absurd reason he's considered a late-first rounder or early-mid 2nd. That's ridiculous IMO. He's one of the 10 best players in the draft.

I'm hoping this won't be a 1st round pick for the 9ers. I know he has been projected to be picked late in the first or early in the second round.

He's a big guy for sure. I know he has been on the 9er's radar.

With Dorsey having played as well at the nose as he did and Ian Williams coming back from injury, I don't understand your obsession with a player that will see the field maybe 30% of the time as a must have 1st round pick.

I don't doubt that Nix is a monster as a NT but really, at the expense of other positions that are on the field 75% minimum? I'm sorry but no.

And how crazy is it that he looks EXACTLY like Vince Wilfork?!?

As a ND fan I like Nix but the problem with him was staying on the field and it seemed like he took plays off. I think he will be a good NT in the NFL. Good run stuffer. Don't expect much pressure from him. The guy to look at is Tuitt. If we can land him in the 2nd rd it will be a steal.

Uh Vince.....where were you ~40 weeks before 7/31/91?

Rotoworld:

According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, "everybody in the league" believes USC WR Marqise Lee will not get past the Packers at No. 21.

Crap. Crap. Crap. Crap. Crap. Two dang years in a row they'd do it to me.

Lee nothing special. GB can have him.

 

[purguy12]

Thats the good thing about this. Clowney and Watt are in the AFC and will be good enough to keep them from getting one of the top QBs in next years draft

M. Williams and Watt was a better Combo.

John Schneider tells me it's "fairly realistic" the Seahawks trade out of their 1st round pick. Says he is talking to a few teams.

Well 2015 is RayMac's last season under contract, and JSmith probably only has a couple of years left in him. Nix can play snaps at DE too.

I like Dorsey too, but Nix is the kind of guy who could make the Niners' defense like the Steelers' defense in the late 2000's when they had Casey Hampton IMO.

Smart move, they are gonna need all the draft picks they can get to supplement their roster after those huge pay days start adding up.

That would be my guess as well. Trade back and pick up some picks for next season. RW is still due his payday and they really have no cap space....just hoping for better cap space numbers in the future.

Scott Bischoff:

Lions talking to Houston about the compensation required to come to No. 1 for Clowney. If what I heard is right it is too much in my opinion

 

[darken65]

Heading off to the Draft Party( yes we have those in CT ) I'm just hoping that the 9ers pick well and make the team better. Have fun and enjoy the day.

Lee nothing special. GB can have him.

I like his route-running and athleticism, but his 12% drop rate is worrisome.
