I also would refer to him as being the "angry Samoan" lol. All Pacific Islanders are Samoan in my book lol... Wait a minute, I hope that doesn't make me a bad person lol

Shanahan will gamble a little in the mid rounds...see Maurice Clarett. I don't think we'll draft Mallet though.

2011 NFL draft: Cincinnati Bengals wanted Green Bay Packers' Round 1 pick, sources say - ESPN

Dalton may not be there.

According to the rumor mill on the Coach and Doc show, the Skins are working hard trying to trade out of the 41 spot to recoup a/some picks in the third or fourth round.

Wouldn't go that far. He seems to have matured since getting kicked off SC's team. Ellis is a true NT and a steal for any team in need of a 3-4 NT; he's visited w/ us so we have some interest. As did Little (WR, UNC), who could've gone earlier had he played in '10. Little or any (WR) becomes a more likely pick at #49 if we take a QB (Kaepernick or Mallet), and Little 6'3 230 has great hands, decent speed (not a burner), tough to tackle, reminds me of a poor man's Boldin; a big possesion WR opposite Armstrong.

#41 QB (Kaepernick, Mallet)
#49 WR Greg Little or trade down

We're talking with the Raider supposedly. Not sure of the specifics but we'd get their 3rd rounder and 2012 1st rounder

Wow, that'd be cool.

[SmootSmack]

Oh, and that should be the Raiders, not the Raider. Although I suppose it is just one guy we are talking to

[Swarley]

That would be pretty nice, pick up BPA with 49, and then maybe go with someone like Devlin/Stanzi in the third.

Wow...a haul like that would help me get over my Locker hangover.

Speaking of...has anyone been able to determine if we would have actually taken Locker at #10?

[skinsfaninok]

Raiders want Kaepernick at 41

It looks like we wont be drafting a QB IMO

[Monkeydad]

I hope not. 10 would be overpaying. 8 is just stupid.

Now that would be awesome!

BTW- Was Locker Shanny's guy if he lasted to #10? Any intel?

[SmootSmack]

I think he may have been but I'm not entirely sure really

Increasingly looking like we won't draft a QB in round 2 (which probably mean we'll draft 2, ha!)

Heard even more people today, that I hadn't talked to before, mention Vince Young (and Hasselbeck though he's less likely)

Paea may not be as likely in round 2 either today.

My gut says we trade out of 41 and take Hudson/Wis at 49

[Son Of Man]

Thanks for the intel.

Any word on when the rules for transactions will be released? (trying to trade McNabb)
