Who was the 28th overall pick for the last few years?

That number 7 analysis had way better luck in the pros. Even the guys who weren't stand outs were something for a bit. Smith, Haden, Barron, Peterson are good. That is way better than 2/10 for the 28th pick. Roy William was very productive for a few years. Huff was productive as well for an extended period of time. Byron couldn't stay healthy long enough to do anything.

Gettlemen will get us someone good.  Don't you worry.  

 

I know it's a pipe dream but I flip out if we could sign and trade Hardy for a draft pick and then work some magic to somehow wind up with Sammy Watkins.  I'm a big tiger fan and I've watched almost every game he's played in.  That boy is a stud.

Interesting footnote to this, we traded up from the 31st pick to select Gamble 28th. 

 

Our trade partner was SF and they used the pick to select a guy named Rashaun Woods, who was a total bust. His rookie season he had 7 catches for 160 yards and a TD, then he tore some ligaments and spent 2005 on IR before being traded to SD where he was almost immediately cut. He spent a little time in NFL Europa and the CFL before his playing career ended and now he's  a H.S. football coach. 

 

The 49ers got our 4th round pick as additional compensation and used it to select another bust named Richard Seigler, who in 2007 was under investigation for his alleged involvement in a Las Vegas prostitution ring after he had been traded to the Steelers. 

 

So the moral of this story? Let's hope we can find a way to fleece SF again while selecting a quality player like Gamble.

    • Facts it's still crazy that they made him sell over that especially considering what some of the other owners have done.  JR was a rich 80 year old white man from the south I'm not at all surprised about him making some "inappropriate" comments about what a woman is wearing water is wet what a surprise. That's just the way things were done during his time, and he should and did get punished for his actions by paying some hefty fines, but it definitely wasn't something that he should've been forced to sell his team over.  I'll never forget him insulting Peyton Manning during a negotiation, reportedly belittling the quarterback’s knowledge of player safety and asking, “Do I need to help you read a revenue chart, son?
    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.
