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

[EaseUrStorm]

Think we'll take a flyer now on d-line. My gut is telling me Trenton will be a one year hold-over until we do some overhauling through the draft at S next year, and the rest of the picks will be fighting for practice squad spots.

Kheeston Randall you mean.

I'd pass altogether. I'd rather have Forston or Tydreke Powell if you're going with somebody along those lines.

Yes. Forgot to switch the names after copying & pasting. If he had an easier name to spell I would've just typed it.

He might not even get drafted anyway.

I would give us a C+ right now. I thought we reached on Jenkins, but the FO seems to of fell in love with him. Baalke hasn't proven to be good at drafting WR's yet, though. I like James that late in the 2nd round, but i don't feel like we needed another RB. Love the trading back for a future 3rd rounder. That could end up being a very high 3rd round pick.

Lamarr Woodley said that he JUST heard that their 5th round pick, Chris Rainey, is pretty fast. He JUST heard that. That made me smile.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Ryan Lindley to Arizona. I liked him for a while but I really cooled off on him the more I saw him.

 

[NinerSickness]

12 picks or so 'til the Niners are up. I'd be happy w/ Forston, Guyton or Cam.

No Billy Winn please. Maybe in the 7th.

Didn't see this before. Dolphins got themselves a fun WR project in B.J. Cunningham. I wouldn't have real, real high hopes but he'd be fun to coach I think.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Sixth-round pick: Michigan State S Trenton Robinson | 49ers Hot Read

 

[RedneckNiner]

draft gets a B from me so far... Trent over Martin... bleh... Least it did't hurt as much as Passing on Earl Thomas to Get Anthony Davis and wasting a pick on Taylor Mays.

BJ Cunningham seems like a slow version of Brandon Lloyd

 

[ChrisPozz]

James Hanna to the Cowboys. Could become the 2nd TE there.

 

[NinerSickness]

DANG IT ! The Cowboys just took James Hanna.

 

[Jikkle]

Hard to really grade this draft since we didn't really come in it with any major glaring holes except maybe RG but that's largely dependent on how the team feels about Kilgore.

Nobody that was available to us at our picks screamed "instant day 1 starter and huge upgrade"

Not going to give a grade but so far I think it's been a good draft for us. None of the picks really struck me as bad picks and I believe Jenkins and James will be big time contributors on offense for us and I love the fact we grabbed more picks for next year which will likely be a stronger draft and we have ammunition to move around in it.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Danny Trevathan to Denver. HECK of a pick this late in my opinion. I totally forgot about him. I LOVE that pick for them.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Christo Bilukidi to Oakland. Crap! The 4th player I have had no GOOD information/observations saved on. I'm trying to get through an entire draft before I die where I at least have some bit of good information/observations on every player that gets taken.

 

[ChrisPozz]

BOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! Tennessee took Markelle Martin. Great pick at this point in my opinion.

 

[Hangman]

John Beck was just cut by Red Skins

 

[ChrisPozz]

Dan "Boom" Herron to Cincy. Special teamer is all I thought with him.
