Sideline Scouting New Seven Round Mock
-
Not a bad draft but I just would hate idea of taking Kendall Wight at 22. He's not big, he's not fast, and he had one good season against horrible defenses in the Big 12. I want no part of him.

If you don't think he's fast, then you haven't watched him play.

I like the Russell Wilson pick. Wouldn't surprise me if he is the 3rd best QB in this class.
Orson Charles is a legit athlete and could prevent mismatch opportunities another good pick.

That is the second mock I have seen with Fleener going to the Niners ... no way would the Niners waste a first rounder on a TE when they have a top 5 TE in the league.
Also this mock has Vinny Curry and Trumaine Johnson each going mid to late third round. Id either of those guys are on the board when we pick in the third we need to scoop them up.

I thought the same thing at first. But I had posted our mock on a 49ers board and they all said that according to local papers that Fleener appears to be the favorite for that selection. And they all like it. The more I thought about it, the more it made sense. The 49ers run a lot of two tight end sets and Fleener isn't a traditional tight end he's more of a hybrid WR/TE who will have a role similar to Gronkowski. If you put Fleener and Vernon Davis together, that's a dangerous pairing and a matchup nightmare. They added Randy Moss and Mario Manningham so they have a couple new WRs to plug in. Also, there's the Stanford connection between Harbaugh and Fleener.

It is a very real possibility when you consider Haubaugh used tons of 2 and 3 TE sets at Stanford, 2 TE sets are being use more and more in the league, Fleener is one of his players, and Veron Davis is on the down turn on his career.

I like Wilson too. I watched Wilson and Luck play a couple games. In my opinion Wilson looked like the better QB. It was only a couple games but Wilson seemed more accurate and could lead/hit his receivers in stride better.
If Wilson was taller I think he'd give Luck a run for his money as 1st pick.

He played against bad defenses in the Big 12 his whole collee career. Don't get me wrong, he's a pretty fast. However, he only runs a 4.55 (or in that range). If a 5'10" receiver is going to be productive, he needs to be faster.

Wes Welker is 5'9'' and ran a 4.60 at the combine. I know, he's the exception not the rule. Just like Brady is too.

He ran a 4.41 at his pro day and consistently got separation on his routes. People always talk about the Big 12 defenses thing, but there's plenty of NFL caliber corners in the Big 12. Just a thought.

Actually, call me when the actual draft takes place. I know it is fun and all, but so many mock drafts can make your head spin.
As Doris Day said: Que Sera, sera.

As did Sly Stone...
Sly and Doris... Top nominee for oddest couple ever...
Also, there's the Stanford connection between Harbaugh and Fleener.
Familiarity does increase the safety factor...
Plus with Alex Smith back what does SF really need? Not much MO making a 2nd top TE is as good a choice as any...
