who is one guy you like that is projected to go 4th round or later?

you can only pick one, you can't pick someone that another poster already previously picked (srry Kaepernick hype train passengers) and don't just pick a guy do some research and write some analysis on why we should take him like if you think he's underrated or he fits our offense mkay

Owen Spencer - WR - NC State

Projected: 6th-UDFA

6'2" - 195 lbs

40 yard dash: 4.51 (4.44-4.59)

Vertical Jump: 37 1/2

ACO seems to favor taller wide receivers, and Spencer has enough speed to be a deep threat in our system. He has good hands, and was consistently productive with a QB who routinely threw to 8-10 different guys a game. His route running needs some work before he will make an impact. But, if he can get that down, he could be a big time steal.

Ryan Whalen, WR, Stanford. Reminds me a lot of Proehl.

I know I've said this ad nauseum on here, but he is my cousin. I would go ape poo if he got drafted to the Panthers and I am going to blow up his cell phone on draft day. I honestly don't think he'll be there past the Niners 5th round though, and doubt we'd take him before that. :(

And before it came out that him and another guy tested positive for pot today, I really liked Christian Ballard, DE, Iowa.

Now I really would like to see us pickup Chimdi Chekwa, CB from Ohio State. Dude is fast, has good height, and can tackle. I think he may be a projected 3rd-4th rounder, but if we took him with our compensatory 3rd I'd be pretty pumped. Plus we've done OK with Ohio State CB's in the past.:)

BTW, love the thread. I love reading up on guys that other huddlers like. After the first couple rounds I know next to nothing about most of the guys, especially if they are from smaller schools or play in divisions I don't get to see much here on the west coast.

Jerrell Powe, DT, Ole Miss. I've seen a lot of mocks having him a lot lower than I think he should go. I like him better than Ellis, but not by much. Guy is a monster and seems to have a better base than Ellis. As a side benefit, the chemistry of putting him beside Hardy might make the both of them a little bit better.

I didn't know that, actually. I think it's possible we'd take a look at him in the 5th, but yeah, the 49ers are going to be a definite possibility. I just think with Proehl on the coaching staff he could really stand a good chance of developing into a similar type of player for us.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
