Draft Day 2011 04/28/2011
Well, here we go. It's official, this blog is up and running on probably the second most important day in recent Niner history. And that being the hiring of Coach Harbaugh was the most important day, we'll see if the Niners get this right today. At 7, we know that they can quite possibly get the best QB of this years draft. With Cam Newton going most likely at number one and by no means is he the number one QB, the Niners have a 1 in 6 chance of getting the best QB available. However, it is likely that Blaine Gabbert is going to be considered the best QB and unfortunately all signs are pointing to him going to Arizona at 5. If that's the case the Niners may be screwed because most mock drafts have the likes of Jake Locker and even Andy Dalton going in the first round. If Patrick Peterson is available, they'll take him and if not Prince Amukamara may be the other CB they take. So, if a QB gets picked up in round 2 it is likely going to be slim picking at the 45th pick on Friday night. With Ryan Mallet and Christian Ponder possibly still being available, the obvious pick would be Ponder. But we'll see. No matter what happens, we know Coach Harbaugh will be likely grooming the QB of the future and that's a good thing. | AuthorJoseph Felice, a huge fan of your San Francisco Forty Niners, fancies himself the original creator of the Niner Nation.
