Aaron Curry is still fresh on my mind just like Jenkins (as well as your entire 12 draft) should be fresh on yours.
Woah.
Defensive much? Just making the point that I wasn't making a huge leap with my draft assumptions.
The 2012 Niners draft thing is way overblown BTW. Its essentally all about Jenkins who didn't contribute. Thats disappointing, but its not like the entire draft was a bust. We'll see what Jenkins does this year.
James played quite well at the end of the year. He didn't get his shot till Hunter was hurt.
Looney was never gonna play and was essentially redshirted the same way Lattimore will be.
Several of their picks were traded away for picks this past year and is a big reason they had 15 of them at one point. BTW, they already have 10 next year and will probably end up with 11 or 12 after the compensatory picks hit. One is likely to be a 3 with the loss of Goldson and no big $$$ free agent signings. They 49ers also signed a number of players who were cut by their former teams and that isn't included in the compensatory pick formula.
The two OLBs they drafted were both injured in camp.
