The San Francisco Chronicle is reporting that San Francisco 49ers QB Ken Dorsey will have to fight hard in training camp to make the team’s final roster. Dorsey will need to outplay QB Jesse Palmer, QB Cody Pickett and possibly a veteran acquisition to remain with the team.
Also Terry Jackson is still wide open.
Wanted to share this draft article. Found it very informative.
T-Minus 7 Days to go:
The 2006 49ers Draft Preview
by George Chaung, NCH draft chief editor
April 22, 2006
There is exactly one week to go until Paul Tagliabue makes his final announcement, “The number one pick is on the clock” as the NFL Commish. The Houston Texans might not even use up their allotted fifteen minutes as they are already in contract negotiations with both Southern Cal’s Reggie Bush and NC State’s Mario Williams. Of course the two wildcards in all this would be potentially taking hometown superstar and reigning NCAA championship MVP Texas quarterback Vincent Paul Young, Jr. or perhaps swinging a trade with a team that wants that number one pick themselves (Jets?). One thing is for sure, this year’s NFL Draft bash will include Mike Nolan and his San Francisco 49ers as one of the top partiers yet again.
The 49ers already held the #6 spot and added #22 of the first round after trading up with the Denver Broncos by giving up a 2nd (#37) and 3rd (#68). In day one, they still also have the 20th pick of the 3rd round (#84) after they hilariously fleeced the Washington Redskins in the trade of the mediocre and media-hyped wide receiver Brandon Lloyd. Honestly, when word came out that the Redskins sent us their 3rd and a 2007 4th I literally went “L-O-L.”
Laughter aside, this draft should be an exciting one, as its one of the deepest and most talented pool of prospects I’ve ever seen. Certainly with some of the freakish talents like Reggie Bush, Vince Young, Vernon Davis, Manny Lawson, Mario Williams and Brodrick Bunkley among many others – this class very well could be the best ever.
What do the Forty-Niners need?
