Kiper Latest Mock Draft - Gaines Projected #56 - Owl25 - 04-17-2014 11:37 AM

From ESPN Insider:

56. San Francisco 49ers (from KC) | Phillip Gaines, CB, Rice
If the fit is there, I could see the 49ers going with a corner in Round 1, but athletes at Gaines' level qualify as a good value at this stage. At this point the 49ers have needed help at WR and CB.

When was the last time we had two Rice football players on the same team in the NFL?

Adding to RiceLad15's query, when was the last time we had a Rice football player projected to go #56 overall in the draft?

2013. Vance McDonald was projected to be a 2nd-3rd round pick. Ended up being picked at #55.

Who, oddly enough, would be the teammate.

I think Gaines's talent speaks for itself, and it would be fantastic if he could go to a team like the 49ers.

I would also be a bit more excited if this was Todd McShay's projection, as opposed to Mel Kiper's. It's like Kiper drinks his own kool-aid. Kiper was the one after all that said something about Jimmy Clausen being an NFL ready quarterback a few years back.

Ahh my mistake. I thought Vance was drafted later. I forgot that he was a second round draft pick.

Didn't James Casey play with ND Kalu for a brief bit?


RE: Kiper Latest Mock Draft - Gaines Projected #56 - techdawg88 - 04-17-2014 03:46 PM

I hope Gaines is on the board when the Saints pick in the 2nd

Don't know if this was noted, but Cheta Ozougwu was waived by the Bears a couple days ago (http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2014-04-15/sports/chi-cheta-ozougwu-waived-20140415_1_chicago-bears-defensive-end-adam-podlesh). Maybe he should try San Fran

I'm sure it has happened a few times since, but Buddy Dial played with Malcolm Walker on the Cowboys in the mid-60s.


RE: Kiper Latest Mock Draft - Gaines Projected #56 - wrysal - 04-17-2014 05:02 PM

Ooh, I've got another one: Doug Cunningham had a cup of coffee with TK and the Vikings in '79.


RE: Kiper Latest Mock Draft - Gaines Projected #56 - At Ease - 04-17-2014 05:03 PM

I think Emanuel and Izzo had some time together in 2001.

And if drafted counts vs. active roster, Cheta and Thor were together a couple years ago.

How about Tobin Rote and Bill Howton?

Every draft expert has major mistakes.

McShay believed that “ten years from now, we’re going to say Limas Sweed was the most productive and most talented wide receiver in the 2008 NFL Draft class.”

You may or may not remember 2008 as the year DeSean Jackson and Jordy Nelson were drafted. You also may remember Sweed from his UT days, but probably not for his 69 career receiving yards. His signature play?

How about this. A Rice punter and kicker were in camp with the Chargers together.

Brigance and Izzo were teammates for one game in 2002 for the Patriots.

LOL....Phillip is just so excited about the possibility of playing. All he ever says is "I just want to get THE call"
