Here are the comments of NFLDraftScout.com’s Rob Rang on the 49ers’ second- and third-round draft choices of 2010.
Taylor Mays:
“What I love is he’s a great fit for San Francisco. They have some athletic ability at corner to protect him, which will allow Taylor Mays to be the physical intimidator he can be.”
Navorro Bowman:
“This one surprised me because I think of him as a 4-3 linebacker, not necessarily a 3-4 guy. But there’s no doubt the kid can make plays behind the line of scrimmage. Knowing how the 49ers have been building through the McCloughan era to now – athleticism trumps all. So he makes sense that way.”
On Bowman’s off-field travails, which included a campus fight and admission of marijuana use, Rang said: “With some clubs, I’d be concerned. I’m much less concerned when I consider the leaders on that defense, and of course Singletary.”
