We were talking NFL Draft last night, and a few questions came up like: “What if the Green Bay Packers had taken so and so?” From there, I started digging through the San Francisco 49ers draft history over the last decade.

If you watch Trent Richardson at Alabama, you see a star. There’s no way the Cleveland Browns could have seen him turning out the way he did.
