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
