49ers Make Huge Pre-Draft Trade


The 49ers in what can only be called a magnificent display in the sports world have worked with the bottom rung Sea Devils to pick a self-described "Terrell Owens", Marcus Maxwell. In exchange they gave the Sea Devils some tips on not being so lame. Sources say they will most likely not follow them.

(Note how he never mentions the Sea Losers, also note how this 49er mentioned the Rhein fire [a better but still lousy team].)

Stolen Horse Drives Meachem to Greatness, Madness

Here are some excerpts from a story about Robert Meachem. (Read the Whole Story)


I played running back when I was little and my dad actually used to throw me in the ring with the bulls to see how fast I could run,” said Meachem. “They’d come at me and throw their head and I’d take off, but then they really didn’t try to chase me too hard. It’s much better making a defender miss. That might be the best feeling in the world when you are on the field.





"As a kid growing up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Meachem had plenty of farm animals to keep him company including his best friend, a horse named Little Man.

“I had him since I was about three years old and he was always with me,” said Meachem. “I taught him everything. He knew how to shake your hand, he could shoot the basketball off his nose.”

While a teenager, Meachem was devastated when his beloved horse was stolen.

“I was so mad and frustrated,” recalled Meachem. “We always had a whole lot of horses but he was mine and after he was gone, I just never felt the same about another horse and really didn’t care to ride anymore.”

Instead Meachem spent more and more time involved in athletics, splitting time throughout high school between both basketball and football. A point guard for Booker T. Washington’s two-time state basketball team, Meachem finished his senior season as an all-state first-team choice after rushing for 531 yards and eight touchdowns and racking up 543 yards through the air with another ten scores.
"

If it wasn't for that horse, he wouldn't have spent those years in college...

Revised Draft Needs



What do the 49ers really need?
3 things (arguably in this order):

1) Defensive Line
You need a stout line to run a 3-4. For 2 years Nolan has wanted to run this type of Defense but has been unable to because of Terry Donahue's undersized linemen. However they picked up Franklin at DT which could prove to be an excellent choice because it means that they don't absolutely have to take a lineman at #11. However they could really use Carriker/Anderson (later round Alama Francis) or Branch/ Harell.

2) WR
I have to say is that WR would be a bad choice for the 11 pick since all the receivers would be a reach at that point and to be honest there are plenty of good picks in 2nd and 3rd rounds. Plus we did add Lelie for a reason and if Vernon Davis steps up we might not have as large of need.

3) Middle Linebacker
Derek Smith may have led the team in tackles for a while, but he just isn't the type of explosive sideline to sideline player I would like to see playing for the 49ers in that position. I would like to see them pick Willis/ Harris/ Poluszny or later perhaps a Zak DeOssie

What would be nice to have?
1) Backup Running Back (splitting carries with Gore)
Maybe Jackie Battle
2) Offensive Line Depth/ Pass Protection
Ugoh/ Sears

Willis and Carriker? It Could Happen...



A quick review of the 100 or so mock drafts posted by reputable sites on thefootballexpert.com suggest that if the 49ers don't pick Carriker, he won't be picked until after the 20th. This suggests two things: 1) Carriker would be a reach 2) A draft day trade on order of last years could give them both

And if Carriker isn't there, how about Spencer or Harrell.

With a 10th and a 20 something pick they could do the following picks:

Willis, Carriker/ Spencer/ Harrell/Okoye

Branch, Harris/ Carriker/ Spencer

I'm not saying they should, but it is a possibility and with 10 picks, I hope the 9ers don't pick 10 players.

A Retraction


In a previous post I mentioned that the 49ers did not have a back up TE, I would like to retract that statement. They have an up and coming TE that I entirely forgot about, Billy Bajema. This makes the list of 49ers needs ever shorter.

*Also Delanie Walker is capable of moving to the TE spot.

Which is Which

49ers Draft Needs

In order:
1. Someone (ANYONE) who can pass rush (I'm not totally sold on TBC but he could work out)
-Maybe Alama-Francis

2. A go-to red zone WR
-We already have a scorcher with Lelie and a solid #2-3 in Battle but we need someone else dependable in the Red Zone
- Maybe Gonzalez
-Dwayne Jarett if he really drops

3. A defensive presence (hard hitting, punishing sideline to sideline)
- this is tied into the pass rush thing
- someone to fire up and lead the troops
- someone like a Patrick Willis

4. Some offensive line help/depth
-Larry Allen is just getting older and well... Kwame Harris

5. A backup TE
- we don't have one

6.A backup running back
-this was Gore's first uninterrupted season
- this could be M. Robinson but he's yet to develop

7. A real dedicated FS
-we don't have one

Dirtiest Clothes EVER

49ers Draft


After much deliberation I have come up with what I consider an ideal 49ers draft class. This is just a preliminary list, expect some changes.

Round 1:
Patrick Willis ILB
He is the kind of game changing, sideline to sideline player that we need to step up in a few years and shake this defense into something to be feared.

Round 2:
Sidney Rice WR
We need a wide receiver more than a lot of people need their insulin and I feel that he could easily become our go to guy (my second choice would be Gonzalez although I see him as a possession type receiver which is just fine but not what I feel Rice could become)

*Bonus Pick*
With 10 picks, we have to be able to pick up an early extra 2nd round pick here and I would use it for to take any of the following players in order (I recognize several of these may be taken in the first) :

Anthony Spencer DE
Ben Grubbs OG
Justin Harrell DT

3rd Round:
Alama-Francis, DE
What we need is a pass rush. And this man could do it for us.

(*Use other pick in 2nd round trade, possibly with Smiley/Harris involved*)

4th Round:
Higgens, WR
4.29, wow

Use the rest to grab some depth/use in 2nd round trade

Zak De Ossie, LB
Doug Free, OT / Andy Alleman, OG
Michael Johnson, S

Maybe grab a falling CB:
Daymeion Hughes
Eric Wright

Grab a backup TE

Later Rounds

Battle RB, Houston
Could spell Gore and give us a solid back up at a bargain.

Jermon Bushrod, OT

Ray McDonald, DE
