The official '12 NFL Draft Thread - Going Live at 8 EST

[Bemular]

Junir Hemingway is my guy, and we won't be getting him after drafting Jenkins.

I'm pretty happy with LaMichael James though. I wonder if he and Hunter are somewhat redundant though.

I like LJames but there is no need to wonder - They are redundant

 

[JPurthe1]

Well there is no doubt what our FO thought our weakness was...speed.

There is alot of cross positioning here.
LMJ can punt return and kickoff return such as Ginn.
Hunter and LMJ are similar.
Ginn, Dixon and Williams all have some interesting competition in the preseason.
Jacobs and Miller may play some FB.
Screens will be a plenty with this group of running backs and TEs.

That was my very first thought. I love Hunter and would have used him in some of the ways I'd use James.

I'm interested in what we can do with both Hunter and James on the field in certain situations.

We can get a lot of speed on the field now with Moss and Jenkins at WR, Davis at TE and a Hunter/James backfield in a package.

I wonder how secure Ginn's spot on the team is with the addition of Jenkins at WR, and now James as a potential RS.

James can but he ha some holding onto the ball issuess... I saw enough Ball issues on returns from Kyle Williams... and before that Dexter Carter. Randle to the Giants.. well at least he made it in the second round.

This is sure to come up in the media:

LaMichael James vs. Stanford in 2010: 31 carries, 257 rush yards, 3 TDs. 0 catches

LaMichael James vs. Stanford in 2009: 18 carries, 125 rush yards, 1 TD. 4 catches for 89yards.

And if you want to look at James vs. Stanford this past season: 20 carries, 146 rush yards, 3 TDs. 1 catch for 10 yards.

 

[BINGO]

Eli is a happy dude. Ruben Randle will be a great player in due time.

LaMichael James has big shoes to fill, I think the 49ers have had the leading preseason rusher for the last three years... Coffee, Dixon, and then Hunter... we want it for the 4th year too..

Don't let us down LaMichael

 

[mem49er]

Gore, Dixon, Moran Norris, Cartwright, Jacobs, Kendall hunter, La Michael james, Miller, Got to figure norris is gone and so is Dixon, so 5 rb 1 fb...

I think Cartwright, Norris and Dixon might be gone. Can't fathom us keeping 12 players at the WR and RB/FB positions.

[ChrisPozz]

Trumaine Johnson to STL. Fine by me. I don't hate him but that is high for me. Jeff Fisher's son played at Montana as well.

Johnson and Jenkins for the Rams. Wow.

This makes me a little sick.

 

[BINGO]

Johnson and Jenkins for the Rams. Wow.

That's a good pick. Trumane will be a SAFETY not a corner. The rams are still outdoing us

 

[NinerSickness]

Holy shit. Allen and Fleener?

What the crap!!?? I thought round 3 was tommorow! And I already put away my decoder ring & costume.

Guess it was kind of unrealistic to hope for Allen in the 3rd.
