Hurney is predictable, but yet Huddlers are Surprised?

Hundreds of us have been glued to this site since yesterday evening at 8:00pm when draft kicked off, actually I’ll take it further back we’ve been glued to this site for months now in preparation for all of our wildest and “ideal” draft scenarios come together during this draft that in our minds would ultimate help raise that trophy. However, through the rumors, the trades, the FA signing, all the BS... we forget to think clear and almost so blatantly that Hurney did what Hurney has been doing and planning all along. We were just so caught up in our hopes and dream scenarios that we just didn’t see it or didn’t want to acknowledge it... 

the three picks... 

Burns, Little, and Grier have been overly mocked and it was ultimate Hurney who made the choice. Just look at the list of the Thirty visits and see who has the most attention. Who has the most meetings and visits and workouts. 

Little by WalterFootball visit tracker had Combine, Private visit, Pro day visit, and Private workout. 

Grier has Pro, Com, and Local workouts and visits among numerous other interactions. 

Burns has private visit/workout. 

Proof was in the pudding.

So a GM picked the players he did the most due diligence on and had the highest level of comfort drafting? Sounds like it all went according to plan then. 

At the end of the day we got a first round edge rusher, a first/second round graded LT and what many thought was the best of the second tier of QBs. I have several Pats fan friends who were shocked and upset that we beat them to the Grier pick. We got three strong picks out of four possible. Tomorrow we can get that Safety at 115.

Hurney isn't a scout although he thinks he is. He got Matso his tackle,  Scott Turner his quarterback and Rivera his edge rusher. He did exactly what he was supposed to do and from a value point of view did well. Get a FS at 115 and this draft is golden.

    • I was playing around with the ESPN playoff predictor and it shows if 49ers and Rams finish with same record, the Rams hold the tiebreaker.     
    • This is my thinking as well. Seattle played as good as they could on defense and Panthers still had a chance until those back to back turnovers.  I don't think the Rams played particularly well in their game against us, alot things went our way in order to win.  Someone pointed out the Rams were bad on the east coast road games and Seattle has been the better road team but they just fought a hard contested game against the Panthers, and now they travel to San Fran this week for their biggest game of the season to determine the division and if they are the overall #1 seed in the NFC or will be traveling for the Wildcard weekend.  If they lose they then travel back cross the country to play a team they've just beaten two weeks ago, not saying they won't be favored against the Panthers but the energy of hosting our first playoff game in 10 years along with the get back effect of having just lost to this team could be huge.
