Cam Newton…to the Niners? Really? Come on, man…really? I could give you a ton of reasons why not…but suffice it to say he’s not really Harbaugh material. Freakish athlete, you bet, he’s this year’s Tebow, of sorts. Faster, yeah, but we’re talking WCO in SF. Instead, here’s what I see happening…the Niners take Quinn, if he’s still on the board. CB, OLB/pass rusher and QB are Harbaugh’s top 3 priorities. He can get his pass rusher in the 1st rd…or possibly one of the top CB’s. My sense is he’ll wait ’til rd 2 or 3 to get his QB…and the guy I think he’ll take is Ponder. Rationale is he’s already familiar with the WCO…he’s accurate, makes good decisions, etc. BL: he’s ready-made to be groomed by Harbaugh to run his WCO. JH will acquire at least one vet QB to start immediately…then, he can bring Ponder along to start when Harbaugh feels he’s ready.

Cam Newton after the Bowl Win didn’t impress me, o he’s a mid first rounder, I really don’t think they should rush into drafting a QB because there is no sure bet, Gabbert reminds me of Alex Smith, so if a player either: Patrick Petterson drops to them or Prince, I’d take a CB because we all don’t really know the future of Nate Clements yet, but the Niners should with a second rounder because Ponder did look good and reminds me of Joe Flacco so they should take him in 2nd.

@Gino: Are you an idiot? Yea Amukamara had a bad game. But if you think one bad game against the best receiver in college football is bad enough to move them down to the 4th or 5th best corner, you are huffing glue. If you think thats bad, watch Patrick Peterson in every game since Alabama. He was awful, especially against Texas A&M and Arkansas. And would you put him further down? Prince Amukamara is a stud.

To the previous commenter, get over yourself. Gabbert will go in the top 10. Whether you like him or not is another question. No chance he goes outside of the top 15, at worst. Look at the teams in the top 15. How many need a QB? 10? Figure it out.
However, this mock, strong overall, does have Amukamara overrated. He was destroyed by Blackmon in the Oklahoma State game. Beaten deep repeatedly. He cannot cover NFL receivers. He will be the 4th or 5th CB taken. Watch the O State film, as scouts will, and move him way down.

Looks like the DEs will be the DTs of the 2011 draft.
