The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.

Very nice job, Niners. By the time Lattimore is fully recovered, Frank Gore could be starting to go past his prime.
Schefter also just made a great point: everyone was talking about the Niners having too many draft picks and not enough roster spots. The Niners can more than afford to burn a pick on Lattimore and stow him on IR in 2013.
likes rhythmic things that butt up against each other

The 9ers had so many picks this draft that it was/is nearly impossible for them to screw it up. That is one stacked team and the one I fear the most as a Saints fan.

Yep, Lattimore to the Niners makes perfect sense. Has day three been the most fun day of this draft so far?
This 4th round was one of the most entertaining 4th rounds I can think of in a while. And I'm saying this being a fan of a team that traded out of the 4th this year.
Guys, I am not a moderator! I swear to God! Why does everyone think I'm a moderator?

Well Tampa got stronger again at CB so they definitely should not be historically bad at pass defense again, but they still need Dline help bad, so Im hoping there are some potential starting DTs left and some good rotational DEs. and Im still not quite sure how to feel about glennon, i wanted a QB but the 3rd round seemed like it should have been Nassib or Barkley, but i think they went with Glennon because of the big arm, he fits how Schiano wants to play offense and he would be able to step in with out much adjustment if they need him to. Now if freeman totally bombs this year and they are picking high next year i still think they will be looking for a first round QB so Im looking at Glennon as a QB for them to groom but ultimately be the back up for the next few years
Not sure about that guy, but with these new DB's Ronde might be on his way out. :/

Patterson is raw but he could be great in a catch and run offense. Some guy did tape study and found that Patterson broke tackles at an absurdly high rate. Where did you get the impression that he's too dumb to play? Wonderlic or something else?

patterson got an 11 on the wonderlic (jackson got a 15, the lowest score of any WR ever drafted by NE), has had academic trouble at every level, limited productivity/sample size (only eleven games and 46 receptions in his only year in major college football), and was red flagged by multiple teams for a questionable work ethic.
the point isn't that he'll bust, but rather that, given the demands of NE's offense and their experience with receivers of similar profiles, he was too large a risk at 29 (especially given the talent left on the board and the trade options available). he could go on to star in minnesota and it wouldn't change the fact that he would have been a poor fit in NE (see matthews, clay).

The more I read and watch about Quanterus Smith, the more I like about this guy. I like that he worked over DJ Fluker, who's now a Charger. Unfortunately, since he tore his ACL in November they'll likely have to PUP/IR him for his rookie year.
Then, there's also this. Guess Freeney wanted too much money.
