A mock to kill some time. - Page 2

Figured that's why this forum exists.

Some statements:

1. Hali, Carr, Edwards, Shaun Smith are resigned.
2. Wiegmann decides on another year.
3. This mock is more what I'd do for the team, less what Pioli would do.

On with the show:

1. OLB Justin Houston, Georgia -- I've already explained myself here.

2. WR Austin Pettis, Boise State -- I'll bet he'll still be on the board when we pick. NFL teams are stupid when it comes to WR speed and the combine. Pettis gives us a surefire #2 WR.

3. NT Sione Fua, Stanford -- I'm assume Powe is picked up first, which is fine. I think Fua is more geared to play three-downs anyway. And he's insanely high character for a nose.

4. WR Edmund Gates, Abilene Christian -- Phenomenal speed, one of the best at the combine. Pretty good size. He can develop a bit while we let him take about 10 snaps a game his rookie season. All go routes!

5. QB Greg McElroy, Alabama -- Game manager. Smart as shit. SEC. We all know this is happening at this point. The question is where Pioli spends the pick.

5. OT Richard Lapham, Boston College -- We have pretty good depth for our OL, but Lapham is a bonus in case Branden Albert goes down and we have to move Barry Richardson to LT. O'Callaghan can man the RT in a bind, which leaves us zero depth if either of those guys go down. Lapham is a bit stiff in his movement, but he has great size and I love BC prospects.

7. S Jai Eugene, LSU -- I think Eugene needs a lot of work, but he's a great size/speed combo coming out of one of Pioli's favorite schools to scout.
