SSchind and Beast, thanks for the detail and thought you put into this stuff. It's thought provoking and great reading....

I can only hope we get a RB that we can get involved as much as Gurley is involved. Not saying he has to be as good (it would be nice) but someone we can count on if the coach that is willing to use him like that. I like A. Jones and maybe he could be that guy but I'm not sure. he definitely needs to be given a chance.

I'l try on the links and Bio's I just google mock drafts and start looking. A few years ago there was a site that monitored all the mock drafts and presented every teams #1 picks from all of them in a pie chart fashion. For example you would see a pie chart for the Cardnals with Bosa getting maybe 75%, Williams and Allen maybe 8 or 9 % each, maybe a QB for 3% and others at the rest.

You could see at a glance who most of the mockers were predicting for which team. I haven't seen anything like that for a few years now. Maybe once it gets closer. The only thing I didn't like about it was it had the teams listed alphabetically rather in draft order. If it was draft order you could look at the guys predicted for the Packers and see what teams above or below them were predicted for the same players.

In re reading my post and after reading some other threads I realize I may have let safety slide too far down my list of priorities. I would have no problems with a S being taken at any of our first 3 spots if it were the right guy. 12 may be a bit high from what I have seen but who knows.

Of course the question of when and where do we draft a safety becomes less critical as soon as Gute signs Landon Collins. I know, I know, he probably won't make it that far but one can dream and its far more likely to happen than Bosa or Allen dropping to #12.

edit: Wouldn't you know it. The first one I opened after I posted. First time I've seen Adderly go this high but I would be OK with it.

A few small school &/ or sleepers for the later rounds:

Ugo Amadi 5-10 200 S Oregon 4th round
Javote Moffatt 6-0 180 S Middle TN State 6th
Nasir Adderly 5-11 197 S Delware (Kid can tackle!!)
Tyre McCants 5-10 218 WR USF 6th
Keelan Doss 6-3 208 WR UC- Davis 6th (good hands)
Sutton Smith 6-1 238 OLB NIU 5th (A little small but makes plays)
Wes Hills 6-2 218 RB Slippery Rock UDFA (can run and catch) 4.50 40

How about the ultimate sleeper? Getting Bosa at #12! Bwahaha.
Pick up Hockenson 6-5 250 TE Iowa in the 3rd round?

After seeing how the Pats get so much key production from Edelman has me really wanting to take Andy Isabella. A shifty guy in the slot picking up key first downs could help this team so much. I just have the feeling that the Patriots are drafting this guy(UMass) and he is gonna be the new Edelman.
