Good fit for Clausen. ---

Good for the Panthers. Good for Clausen. It’s a nice marriage, and I hope he’ll kick some ass. ---

Taylor Mays to the 49ers. ---

49ers on the clock with the 49th pick. Did I hear Taylor Mays’s name? ---

Bastard 49ers. Damn, the Niners are having a great draft. ---

> [@garygnu](#): > > No, Beadles is going to play Guard, although if somebody goes down, he could slide outside and fill in. I’m actually banking on them making him the Center we’ve been searching for. I think he can make the switch. And I base that on absolutely nothing. ---

Somebody on another chat site said the 49ers war room looked rather displeased that Sergio Kindle got picked ahead of them. 17 (49) 49ers - Taylor Mays, S, USC Following in the footsteps of many other Trojans going to the 49ers, I think Mays is a steal at this point. He’s just too big, fast, athletic to be a bad player. This guy’s big time. If he doesn’t wear #49 I will be most displeased. w00t! 49ers ---

Seems like the Patriots sole goal in this draft is to collect late round picks. ---

18 (50) Javier Arenas, CB, Alabama Nice pick. I don’t know why he’s rated so low, really. His return ability is electric, and he’s a good corner. ---

I am surprised. This draft is like a fantasy football draft with a bunch of rookies who, once the first TE is taken, all select TE’s. Every CB or DT with a 7th round grade will be taken before the day is out. ---

Deon Sanders is a fucking tool. He’s a complete and utter moron, and his “interview” of the Payton children was a fucking joke. ---

19 (50) Vikings - Toby Gerhart, RB, Stanford Damn, who’s the hot chick siting next to Toby? I like Toby, but I’m biased. He’ll be a good pair for Peterson. Can pound for short yardage or back up AD, or play together and lead-block.
