I was wondering what you all thought if A.J. was off, and so was leinart, and mario. who do we take then. AJ could go #2, doubtful, but could. Then leinart could easily go 3 or 4 and so could Mario. Trade down? Take Davis? Take Ferguson?

Yea I looked at a myriad of mocks yesterday and he was listed aanywhere from late first to mid second rounder.

DakotaT said:Vernon Davis' weakness is suppose to be blocking. I think that can be overcome by the coaching staff. 4.3 speed for a man weighing 250 lb cannot be taught. This guy creates a mismatch with any defensive player on the field. He is too strong for the DB's and too fast for the linebackers.
We could use double tight end sets instead of 3 wide receivers (limiting the loss of Walker, should we trade him). We would just have to teach Favre to start throwing to the tight ends again.
If this guy isn't high on Green Bay's board, something is wrong on Lombardi Avenue.
bozz_2006 said:true. i think i'm just still a little gun shy over the abomination that was U-71. different coach, hope his MO is to keep defenses guessing, as opposed to Sherman who was one of those "i don't care if they know what play we're running because we'll do it so well that they won't be able to stop it anyway" guys.... like a 70's High school coach
Owns school strength records for a tight end in bench (460), power clean (355), vertical jump (40 inches), index (797), squat (685) and 40-yard dash time (4.41), all of which were recorded in the spring of 2005...Probably one of the best tight end prospects to come along in some time and his final grade will likely be close to that of Tony Gonzalez and Kellen Winslow II when they were coming out.
